| DLL Hijacking - Hacking Attack Tutorial |
DLL Hijacking is an attack that exploits the way some Windows applications search and load DLLs that they need and use. Most Windows applications will not use a fully qualified path to load any required DLLs. A bad guy can place a DLL for a known program in a location that is searched before the real DLL's location almost guarantee that the malicious DLL is loaded, resulting in whatever code the attacker wants to run running! When programs are not written to specify the exact location of a required DLL, Windows will search for the DLL by name in a specific order.
