Abstract
Bytecode can be modified to adjust a returned address associated with a target function according to some examples. In one such example, a system can analyze bytecode to identify a location of a first bytecode segment that is intended to return an address for a target function. The system can then modify the bytecode to replace the first bytecode segment with a second bytecode segment at the location. The second bytecode segment can be configured to call a supplemental function that is executable to return the address for the target function.
