ROP with indirect control transfer instruction: This class of ROP attacks uses ROP gadgets that use replicas of RET instructions that provide the same functionality as RET [20] or a set of instructions that provide behavior similar to a RET instruction. For example, instead of a RET instruction, an Update-Load-Branch instruction set is used to simulate the same behavior on x86. Basically, the instruction sequences end with JMP Ã y where y points to a POP x; JMP x sequence. Researchers call this tactic as Bring Your Own Pop Jump (BYOPJ) method.
