It lets you search binaries for sequences of useful machine code instructions followed by a return statement ("gadgets"). If an exploit can manipulate the callstack to point to a sequence of gadgets, the return statements will redirect the program flow to execute the sequence ("return oriented programming"). By reusing existing code out of context, an attacker can potentially circumvent security measures which prevent the execution of injected code.
