...Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) are well-known Note that unless things have changed (something which I can find no evidence for,) snow leopard still lags behind windows and linux in its ASLR, in that it doesnt randomise all the key parts of the kernel. Hopefully this will be fixed in lion. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/08/29/snow_leopard_security/ http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/08/29/snow_leopard_securit... https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Address_space_layout_randomization#Mac_OS_X https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Address_space... EDIT: although apparently, as ever, the community comes to the rescue. Stefan Esser presents steps to randomise dyld's address space yourself: http://antid0te.com/antid0te-for-snow-leopard-rebasing-dyld.html http://antid0te.com/antid0te-for-snow-leopard-rebasing-dyld....
