Well i'm not using Fedora anymore, Ubuntu has replaced it forever :)
But i found that Fedora cames with the option exec-shield-randomize enabled,
so your stack address change every time you run a program.
For example:
$ gcc -Wall -g --static -o stackp stackp.c
$ for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do ./stackp; done
&sp is 0xbffff234
&sp is 0xbffff134
&sp is 0xbffff034
&sp is 0xbfffef34
&sp is 0xbfffee34
Now if you want to disable the randomization you have to execute this command:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/exec-shield-randomize
And now if we do the test again, we see that our address is not changing anymore:
$ gcc -Wall -g --static -o stackp stackp.c
$ for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do ./stackp; done
&sp is 0xbffff234
&sp is 0xbffff234
&sp is 0xbffff234
&sp is 0xbffff234
&sp is 0xbffff234
So we can do our test and Bufos practising without problems :)
