If the function is dynamically linked, it is possible to utilize gadgets from libc. For example, if the binary calls puts(), we can control EIP/RIP and then leak an address from GOT. If libc.so is given, just attach it and find the offset; otherwise, use libc database to search the offset. We compute the libc base address:
Then we compute the system() address and "/bin/sh" address:
In the end we call system("/bin/sh"). Read this writeup to learn more:
