Return-oriented programming

Computer security exploit technique that manipulates the call stack to hijack control flow

Return-oriented programming (ROP) is a computer security exploit technique that allows an attacker to execute code despite the presence of security defenses that would otherwise prevent it, such as executable-space protection and code signing. In this technique, an attacker gains control of the call stack to hijack program control flow and then executes carefully chosen machine instruction sequences that are already present in the machine's memory, called "gadgets".

From Wikipedia

Return-oriented programming (ROP) is a computer security exploit technique that allows an attacker to execute code despite the presence of security defenses that would otherwise prevent it, such as executable-space protection and code signing. In this technique, an attacker gains control of the call stack to hijack program control flow and then executes carefully chosen machine instruction sequences that are already present in the machine's memory, called "gadgets". Each gadget typically ends in a return instruction and is located in a subroutine within the existing program and/or shared library code. Chained together, these gadgets allow an attacker to perform arbitrary operations on a machine employing defenses that catch simpler attacks.
