HTML5 Heap Spray. EUSecWest 2012
Federico and I have just come back from our holidays after EUSecWest.
The conference was awesome, as usual. Very interesting talks, great ppl, and of course, great hosts.
In our talk, we presented a new technique to populate the heap in a multithreaded fashion making use of HTML5.
It’s very simple and it offers several benefits:
- Very fast
- Browser independent
- Aligned
- Supported by computers, smartphones, smart TVs and video game consoles

Thanks.

Prezi can be pretty messy sometimes. Anyway, I think it can add some value to the presentations when it’s well used. We try to do that.
