I know, common knowledge ignored....   but for those wanting a
clue....
 
It's not an exploit if you are already root and just tell the system
to trash itself.  ;)
 
 
Denial of service for youself is also not a 0day.  In some cases it
may be interesting if you can kick a service down for other users too
if you can do it as non root with a method other than a fork or ohter
resource bomb.  
 
Not sure about the first one. It didn't seem to do anything.
$ exec &>&-
[1] 22829
$ 
[1] + Done                 exec 

The second one operates as I would expect.  If you still see an
exploit out of this, be more specific as to OS, etc...

I have two more 0day's for you to look into.  This may take YEARS to
figure out!

1) exec &>&-

WHOA!  WHAT HAS HAPPEN!?

2) kill -9 -1

WASH, REPEAT!


Nobody has been informed of the aformentioned '0day' and common
knowledge has been ignored.
