Purpose: Function return addresses may be corrupted through buffer overflows to execute arbitrary code on the stack. To counter this, any execution of code stored in the stack ought to be detected and handled appropriately.
Implementation: Check whether current execution pointer is on the stack
Proof: Try to execute code stored in the stack and check that it's handled appropriately
