CVE-2015-1325 / apport-pid-race.c
apport race conditions

ubuntu local root
tested on ubuntu server 14.04, 14.10, 15.04

core dropping bug also works on older versions, but you can't
write arbitrary contents. on 12.04 /etc/logrotate.d might work,
didn't check. sudo and cron will complain if you drop a real ELF
core file in sudoers.d/cron.d

unpriv@ubuntu-1504:~$ gcc apport-race.c -o apport-race && ./apport-race
