Abstract—StackArmor is a comprehensive protection tech-nique for stack-based memory error vulnerabilities in binaries. It relies on binary analysis and rewriting strategies to drastically re-duce the uniquely high spatial and temporal memory predictabil-ity of traditional call stack organizations. Unlike prior solutions, StackArmor can protect against arbitrary stack-based attacks, requires no access to the source code, and offers a policy-driven protection strategy that allows end users to tune the security-performance tradeoff according to their needs. We present an implementation of StackArmor for x86 64 Linux and provide a detailed experimental analysis of our prototype on popular server programs and standard benchmarks (SPEC CPU2006). ...
