I don't even think that you can *GET* a legit software there anymore, it's like when your cousins call up to ask you if you need anything from New Jersey - "err, yeah could you bring along a copy of windblows? I'll pay you for it when you get here!"

most people in asia and the third world buy pcs with a pirated copy of xp on them. The pcs are so cheap that the only profit the retailers can make are by selling you pirated software and telling you that it's the legal stuff!

Re:Failed on RHEL

On: Local Root Exploit in Linux 2.4 and 2.6

ok so after chanfing the location of _elf_lib the prog on my server gave me this ...

[-] FAILED: uselib (Cannot allocate memory)

but on the univ server it just keeps losing the race! lol i guess it's coz that server is pretty fast...

child 31 VMAs 65527
child 32 VMAs 60100
[+] moved stack bfffc000, task_size=0xc0000000, map_base=0xbf800000
[+] vmalloc area 0xc0400000 - 0xc047e4a4
Wait... -
[-] FAILED: try again (Cannot allocate memory)

so are these systems secure? (i mean to a certain extent that the probability of the race condition winning is pretty low :p)

anyone?

Re:The university system lacks /dev/shm support.

On: Local Root Exploit in Linux 2.4 and 2.6

thats the change

//#define LIBNAME "/dev/shm/_elf_lib"
#define LIBNAME "/tmp"

this is what i got!

[-] FAILED: open lib (/tmp not writable?) (Is a directory)
