* gv postscript viewer exploit , infamous42md AT hotpop DOT com
*
* run of the mill bof. spawns a remote shell on port 7000. woopty doo. if
* someone has been able to exploit the heap overflow in cfengine, please email
* me and teach me something. after days of pain i've concluded it's not
* possible b/c you can't manipulate the heap enough to get anything good in
* front of you. please prove me wrong so i can learn.
*
* shouts to mitakeet
