Consider a scenario where an attacker exploits a vulnerability in a program to overwrite a legitimate function pointer (func_ptr) with a malicious function's address. The attacker's goal is to divert the program's control flow to the malicious function, which could potentially execute harmful actions. Here's the vulnerable C code snippet: #include void malicious_function() { printf("Malicious function executed!\ "); } void (*func_ptr)(); void vulnerable_function() { // Vulnerability: Overwriting func_ptr with malicious_function's address func_ptr = malicious_function; } int main() { // Call vulnerable function
