Re: Decompiling Netscape

Anyone want to lend me a hand in finding and disassembling the
routine responsible for the buffer overflow in Netscape? Or atleast
tell me how you did it. (I hope it wasn't done by single stepping thru
functions in GDB) I missed the whole Netscape RNG decompilation
thread. You could win a T-shirt for your help!
Under Unix, you can use objdump, e. g.
% objdump -d netscape
netscape: file format a.out-sunos-big
No symbols in "netscape".
Disassembly of section .text:
00002020 clr %fp
00002024 ld [ %sp + 0x40 ], %o0
00002028 add 0x44, %sp, %o1
0000202c sll %o0, 2, %o2
00002030 add 4, %o2, %o2
00002034 add %o1, %o2, %o2
. . .
This should work wherever other GNU utilities work. objdump is part
of GNU binutils.
