This ability to run arbitrary code at certain memory addresses is dangerous as attacker being able to execute the instructions from anywhere in memory. Thishowto explains use ofDieHard software to protect popular application such as Mozilla firefox. It protects applications from as-yet unfixed bugs and security vulnerabilities that exploit them.
