Well, I wrote an article on Buffer Overflows so people may be more familiar with them.
I just got done, and I wanted you guys to read it. So, Here it is, Mad_guy's guide to Buffer Overflows.

Includes:
--Stack overflow info,
--Heap overflow info,
--Int overflow info, and
--Return-into-LibC exploits

A program, as most refer to it, when running isn't technically a
program, it's then become a process. When a process
is started, it's given an enormous amount of free space for it's
memory, this is called Virtual Memory. VM isn't -actual-
memory, it's just fake memory for the program to play around with.

While this isn't the case for the majority of micros out there doing useful work, your treatment of the subject, as a whole, is quite good and definitely useful for the previously uninitiated.
