"When dealing with Windows exploits, an issue that often emerge is their cross-platform reliability, meaning they often work against either some given service packs of the OS, or some localization of the OS. It is quite rare tfind exploits that will work on a very wide range of Windows installs.

While multiplying the number of targets in an exploit is often the solution found in the wild, it seems that nobody has yet disclosed a solution tfingerprint a Windows language, or discuss about cross languages and service packs return addresses (though cross SP only is now fairly well mastered).

Immunity, Inc. had twork on this issue for CANVAS, in order tbuild more reliable exploits, and this paper intend texplain some of the solutions that were found tthese issues.
