 Cisco IOS FTP server remote exploit by Andy Davis 2008               
                                                                      
 Cisco Advisory ID: cisco-sa-20070509-iosftp - May 2007               
                                                                      
 Specific hard-coded addresses for IOS 12.3(18) on a 2621XM router    
                                                                      
 Removes the requirement to authenticate and escalates to level 15    
                                                                      
 *********************************************************************
 To protect the innocent a critical step has been omitted, which means
 the shellcode will only execute when the router is attached to gdb.  
 I'm sure the PowerPC shellcoders out there will work it out...       
 *********************************************************************
                                                                      
 Thanks to Gyan Chawdhary and Varun Uppal for all the hours they spent
 on the original IOS security research
