This is not about having control over the changes (flipping a bit in a file, say), but rather about random corruption.

Also this is not a journal paper, this is a workshop (Usenix "Workshop on Offensive Technologies") which is meant as a kind of get together of academics and practical/industry guys. So just demonstrating an "theoretically obvious" exploit would be fine content for that venue, especially if it's not been academically documented before.
