cxterm buffer overrun
cxterm is a Chinese terminal emulator for the X Window System.
It''s installed as suid-root by default if you did a make install.
Just like xterm, it does needs to be suid to update
/etc/utmp...blahblah...
I discovered some buffer overflow bugs in it. The code
attached below is the exploit.
Quick fix? chmod -s /path/cxterm
