•In some languages like C, boundchecking mechanisms are notimplemented. When the input data whichis used to fill the buffer is greater thanthe size of the allocated buffer, othervalues in the stack get overwritten. If theattacker designs this input carefully, hecan overwrite the return address with theaddress of his will. This address maypoint to some custom code, can be amalicious shell code. These attacks areknown as buffer overflow attacks.

•Buffer overflow attacks are caused when the buffers such as arraysare filled without the proper bound checking.
