Illustrating the Linux sock_sendpage() NULL pointer dereference on Power/Cell BE Architecture

dereference[1], discovered by Tavis Ormandy and Julien Tinnes. This exploit
was written to illustrate the exploitability of this vulnerability on
Power/Cell BE architecture.

The exploit makes use of the SELinux and the mmap_min_addr problem to exploit
this vulnerability on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 and CentOS 5.3. The
problem, first noticed by Brad Spengler, was described by Red Hat in Red Hat
Knowledgebase article: Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) policy and the
mmap_min_addr protection[2].

Support for i386 and x86_64 was added for completeness. For a more complete

Re: [Full-disclosure] Linux kernel exploit

Hey Dan,

Freaking THANK YOU first and foremost. I've been waiting for someone to say that for days now, and was just about to myself. 

Just because everyone and their brother want's to show off that they can compile & run some software (herp a derp, good job) DOESN'T mean they should immediately post it here. I tested it against an OLDER KERNEL on purpose because I actually read the headers and the exploit worked as expected. I knew that this was responsibly disclosed, so it was already patched on any system that I updated. If you don't have the proper symbols, then the exploit doesn't have the proper offsets, and the exploit will fail. Plain and simple. *THEN* there's people who don't even bother to read that "Red Hat does not support Econet by default". DOES NOT. As in the exploit WON'T WORK!

It's pathetic that the original exploit dev has to waste his time saying the same thing 5 times.

Re: how to request a cve id?

Hash: SHA1

CVE requests can be sent to cve@mitre.org or to me directly.  My PGP
key is below, or accessible from the MIT public key server.
Alternately, you can request them from Candidate Numbering Authorities
(CNAs) which include the security teams at Red Hat, Microsoft, and
Debian, or third-party coordinators including iDefense and CERT/CC.

The amount of information you need to provide can vary and is somewhat
negotiable.  We need to be sure how many CVEs to assign.

    Paolo Bonzini of Red Hat reported an issue in the ioctl passthrough
    support for SCSI devices. Users with permission to access restricted
    portions of a device (e.g. a partition or a logical volume) can obtain

 local users to leverage weak permissions on /var/log/acpid, and obtain
 sensitive information by reading this file, cause a denial of service
 by overwriting this file, or gain privileges by executing this file
 (CVE-2009-4033).
