Abstract
According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a method for detecting injected machine code. The method includes extracting data content from a buffer. The method also includes providing an operating system kernel configured to detect injected machine code. The method further includes executing, using the operating system kernel, the data content on a physical processor. The method further includes monitoring, using the operating system kernel, the execution of the data content to determine whether the data content contains injected machine code indicative of a code injection attack.
