# Stack Smashing on x86_64 Linux

This is a simple proof-of-concept implementation of stack smashing on x86_64
Linux.

## Disclaimer

Stack smashing, just like other buffer overflow vulnerabilities, can be
dangerous. You should act with caution, and be responsible for what you do.

## Usage

You may build the executable with GNU Make. Run the executable, and you should
get a shell.

```plaintext
make
./smash
```
