But... you still some how need to change the EIP to execute arbitrary
code (injected or existing).
I did a simple "biggrep" of a simple "unction [Pp]ointer" pattern on the
Glibc 2.1.92 and found some hints about atexit and malloc hooks and a
few other interesting spots.
Of course, there are more...
