    Hi
            I am a Ph.D. student studying network security at Princeton
    University. I am trying to see if attacker can use a series of
    vulnerabilities to take over a particular resource. Has there been prior
    work on this topic earlier? Can someone give me a real example where the
    adversary actually uses a series of vulnerabilities to break into a
    resource?

            May be he uses the webserver in DMZ and then uses it to get access
    to fileserver and then uses it to compromise something else?

    thanks for your time,
    Sudhakar.
