Hi,
I'm beggining studying deeply exploits. Now I have a problem. I'm
trying a return-to-libc exploit but I get a segmentation fault when
executed in the terminal and I get the code correctly executed when I
run it inside GDB. Does GDB alter the memory map of a process when
executed inside it? In which way? Where I can read info about this?
This is the problem:

fcanogohan ~/ShellcodersHandbook/code/ch02 $ ./ret2libc 609 1776
Using address: 0xbfffeb08
fcanogohan ~/ShellcodersHandbook/code/ch02 $ ./victim $BUF
Segmentation fault
fcanogohan ~/ShellcodersHandbook/code/ch02 $ gdb ./victim

Any ideas?
