Probably a scriptkiddie or some random idiot. The fun part was
it came up totally different offsets then i mean TOTALLY different
each time you ran it and if you gave it a offset it would "work"
no matter what. For those people who ran it.. change all your 
passwords. :)

Yeah, I missed the fact that after "calculating" the offset it starts to
"exploit" in the same way as if it was given an offset as a parameter.
Anyway, I simply wanted to note that whoever posted it here was either
knowingly lying about its purpose or not having a clue about UNIX at all :)

which is obviously not true. Btw as far as I understand, the troyan code
is triggered when
the "exploit" is run with the offset specified, and not in a
"bruteforcing" mode.

Me and my friend tried to run it on a lab-box thats not connected
directly to internet and doesnt relay mails. It doesn't use that
special offset as a trigger. We got so many "sys3" accounts in
/etc/passwd as many times we ran it plus those outgoing-mails que'd.
