It can be used to avoid segfaulting the originating process. If it's the case it can modify process registers before returning. This is not a security feature by itself, it's a way to soften some unwanted side-effects of restrictive security features. In particular this is used by S.A.R.A. to implement what PaX call "trampoline emulation" that, in practice, allows for some specific code sequences to be executed even if they are in non executable memory. This may look like a bad thing at first, but you have to consider that: - This allows for strict memory restrictions (e.g. W^X) to stay on even when they should be turned off. And, even if this emulation makes those features less effective, it's still better than having them turned off completely. - The only code sequences emulated are trampolines used to make function calls. In many cases, when you have the chance to make arbitrary memory writes, you can already manipulate the control flow of the program by overwriting function pointers or return values. So, in many cases, "trampoline emulation" doesn't introduce new exploit vectors. - It's a feature that can be turned on only if needed, on a per executable file basis.
