Local Root Exploit in Linux 2.4 and 2.6

What, no remote exploit?!?

[BobPaul]

Why is it every nearly Linux flaw is locally exploitable, where as every nearly every Windows flaw is remotely exploitable?

Maybe Microsoft figures most companies already do a good job of securing their physical servers...

DUE TO FAILURE, HERE IS A STORY

[Sexual Asspussy]

Carolina Porfirio was 19 and part English with an Italian father, hence the name. She worked as an office girl for a company in the same building where I rented an office suite for my business in Nice, down the corridor on the same floor. All that follows happened shortly after I split up with Ginny Harris and was preparing to leave the Riviera to go to Spain. I was, by this time, a full member of the Riviera Rape Club and wanted to provide the club with a bitch we could abuse, torture and sex kill.

I chose Carolina because the young 5'4" cunt was gorgeous (in fact, she was stunning, a real head turner) and close enough to keep under observation for a while but far enough not to be connected with me. There was little chance her disappearance would be linked to me. I kept a watch on her for a couple of weeks and learned her name, age, that she commuted by train from across the border in Ventimiglia, Italy (only a 30 minute train ride), had no boyfriend, and jogged every evening. The jogging would explain the sexwhore's lovely athletic look. The jogging looked like the best opportunity to abduct my chosen sexbaby and that's how we got her.

As soon as we had the sexy bottom babe in a safe place (by this I always mean safe for the abuser, not the victim), we crowded around (there were 8 of us) to fondle Carolina's body still with her clothes on. I think this is very humiliating for a sex object to be fondled fully dressed. It is like being raped but with the added fear of knowing it is yet to happen. Then we ordered her to do a striptease for us. She tried to back away from us, shaking her pretty head and crying, looking down at the floor and saying "Nooooo" and "Pleeeeease!" over and over. It took a punch deep in her belly and a hard brutal kick from behind right in her teenage cunt, which sent her sprawling and retching on the floor, to change her mind.

It's interesting that even a tracksuit can look gorgeously sexual on an attractive love object, male or female. Carolina was wearing a powder blue track with a pale pink stripe over the left shoulder and down the body, repeated in the trouser part to the ankle. On her small pretty teenage feet she wore white and bright pink reeboks and dayglow pink cotton anklesocks. After fondling the 19 year old whoregirl with her clothes on, we made the babybumsex bitchgirl do a striptease and dirty dance for us. I lied to the pretty bumbaby, saying that we'd also kidnapped her kid sister (an 11 year old ugly duckling, quite unlike her delicious big sister) and would kill it if she didn't perform for us and obey all our commands completely and immediately, no matter how disgusting and evil she thought them. I told her to leave the reeboks and the cute little sexy sox on. In fact, the fat bottom girl Carolina wore them throughout her terrible ordeal, and died with them on.

Following the dirty dancing, throughout which Carolina cried her lovely blue eyes out, we made her stand with her hands on her pretty head so we could all feel and fondle her nude body all over. Then I made the fucking babysex kneel down so that we could take turns in front of her pretty face.

Each man was allowed to present the teenage whore with either his penis or his bum, but not both. Most gave her their cocks to lick and kiss, but I was one of only two presenting her with our big bums, making the lush childwoman lick up and down our dirty cracks and kissing our bottom holes. It's hard to describe the feeling of it to someone who hasn't experienced the wonderful sensation of killing a very sexy looking girl (or boy). I'm not in the least sorry about doing it. She deserved to be murdered for being so lovely and sexual, for being a very pretty young female and for having a gorgeous body. I am sorry only that I've not done it more than once. There are so many I would love to have killed, girls and boys, women and children. Among these are my ex-wife Elaine, a number of ex-girlfriends from my earlier years including Doris, Maggie, Patti and Mary, and, more r

WARNING! In the considerations of safety, you should NEVER let a male dolphin attempt anal sex with you. The Bottle-nose dolphin member is around 12 inches, very muscular, and the thrusting and the force of ejaculation (A male can come as far as 14 feet) would cause serious internal injuries, resulting in peritonitus and possible death. Unless you are the masochistic type, you will have a hard time explaining your predicament to the doctors in the emergency ward....

Coprophilia has the following meanings in the field of medicine:

1. Any attraction of microorganisms to feces (poop). A microorganism is a tiny organism made of one cell that is usually too small to be seen without using a microscope (a device that makes things appear larger). A cell is the smallest, most basic unit of life, that is capable of existing by itself.

2. In psychiatry and psychology, coprophilia refers to an abnormal attraction to and interest in filth or feces (poop). Sometimes, the interest and attraction to filth and poop takes on a sexual component and leads to sexual excitement. We'll leave the rest to your imagination. Coprophilia is classified as a parahilia. A paraphilia is defined as unusual fantasies or sexual urges or behaviors that cause sexual arousal and continue to occur.

The most common approach to treating coprophilia is insight-oriented psychotherapy (talk therapy). This would typically be done with a psychologist, preferably one that specializes in the treatment of paraphilias. Insight-oriented psychotherapy allows the person to understand the events that caused coprophilia to develop. Patients who undergo this treatment also becomes aware of the events that happen in their day-to-day life that cause them to act on their impulses.

The eventual goal is to have the person find acceptable means of sexual behavior, increase self-esteem, and improve social skills. Another form of psychotherapy that is used to treat coprophilia is behavioral therapy. Behavioral therapy aims to disrupt the learned behavioral patterns of a person with this disorder. For example, the impulses to use feces in a sexual way may be paired with an electric shock to decrease the impulses. The shocks can be self-administered by the patient under the direction of a psychologist. There are many psychologists that specialize in behavioral therapy. There are no medications that are specifically used to treat coprophilia. This form of coprophilia is also known as mysophilia and scat fetishism.

Coprophilia comes from the Greek word "kopros" meaning "feces," and the Greek word "philos" meaning "fond." Put the two words together and you have "fond (of) feces."

Stop posting exploits.

If you want to help Linux' adoption, STOP posting information on the exploits! Learn from Microsoft: hide your rotten eggs on Christmas, to be found on Easter.

Michael, get a clue and stop posting this stuff. Some people have pleasure on wreaking havoc on vulnerable computers, and you are no different than a terrorist if you say otherwise.

makes me chuckle.

all the linux zealots vs all the MS zealots. When will everyone realize that humans are inherently flawed beings who produce inherintly flawed products from cars that run using fire and that rust, to operating systems chock full of flaws. Once linux gains enough momentum and is deployed on a meaningful percentage of business users desktops, hackers will deem it worthwile to devote time to exploit it. its absurd to think that any opeating system is so head and shoulders above anything else. its only a matter of time. get off your soapboxes. Why is using MS update any different than downloading this new linux fix? the doublestandards on display at /. never cease to amaze me. -r sig pending

I'd recommend revising your use of the "monoculture" term given the latest trojan attack on RedHat users and the PHP/Apache/Google worm making the rounds.

As a Debian and boa user, I could care less.
