Linux: 'make'ing a program with an executable stack & another question #1
I have the source for the program and I need to 'make' it without an executable stack for buffer overflow testing.

(also does a non executable stack not lead to a crash in the event of a buffer overflow)

The crash is because it is trying to ret to an invalid address, having a NX stack shouldn't effect that.

Just execstack -s the finished executable.

Wait, without an executable stack? That should be default
