Exploit for Ultrix 4.5 dxterm

Well,

I hadn't seen a buffer overflow exploit for ultrix on bugtraq, so I
decided to make one. I don't think anyone is using ultrix seriously
anymore, so this is just for fun ;).

/* Ultrix 4.5/MIPS dxterm exploit
   by ztion in 2004
   Greets to: Stok, sidez

   It wasn't possible to use '/' in the shellcode. Probably dxterm only
   copies everything after the last slash, as it expects a path.
   Since everything is pretty much hardcoded, you will probably have to
   tweak it for versions other than 4.5
