Biography:
Thomas Lopatic published in 1995 a stack overflow exploit for NCSA httpd (NCSA HTTPD 1.3 on WWW server) on HP-UX which was an excellent piece of work, but on an obscure OS and CPU. His posting clearly walked through the steps needed for successful exploitation and included an exploit that creates a file named ʻGOTCHAʼ in the /tmp directory.
