Long story short, nothing gets overwritten. Just an attempt at using a NULL pointer. This is only a theory though, I may be wrong. --[[User:Luigi2us|Luigi2us]] 01:40, 13 August 2011 (CEST)

Well I have seen a Google Chrome exploit that uses a null pointer. It executes the nopsled and the shellcode so that it generates an exception.
I think that if you try that exploit on Chrome on your computer, it still works(I tried it on version 15.0.865.1000, and it generated an exception. So I think that's a sign that Google and the Chromium team still haven't fixed the exploit yet, but my antivirus detects it). But what I said might be wrong and misleading. And sometimes null pointer dereferencing can be exploitable if you try and think harder. --[[User:Kiddyshaq34|Kiddyshaq34]] 22:00, 03 September 2011 (GMT)
