Stack Pivoting is a common technique widely used by vulnerability exploits to bypass hardware protections like NX/SMEP, or to chain ROP (Return-Oriented Programing, the Wikipedia link) gadgets. However, there is NO hardware protection solution to defend against it (at least for now:-). This blog will describe a software solution to detect Stack Pivoting at run time, and I will also point out some limitations due to current processor architecture implementations. <Please let me know if this is NOT a new idea, or NOT doable.>
