/*[ Adobe Version Cue VCNative[OSX]: local root exploit. (dyld) ]
* 
* by: vade79/v9 v9@fakehalo.us (fakehalo/realhalo) 
* 
* Adobe Version Cue's VCNative program allows un-privileged 
* local users to load arbitrary libraries("bundles") while 
* running setuid root. this is done via the "-lib" 
* command-line option. 
* 
* note: VCNative must connect to a valid host to be able 
* to get to the point where the library is loaded. this is 
* automated in this exploit by listening to an arbitrary local 
* port and using the localhost("127.0.0.1") to connect to.
