PoPToP PPTP 1.1.4-b3 - Remote Command Execution

EDB-ID:

Author:

/* 
*  exploit for a recently discovered vulnerability in PoPToP
*  PPTP server under Linux. Versions affected are all prior to
*  1.1.4-b3 and 1.1.3-20030409.
*  The exploit is capable of bruteforcing the RET address to find our
*  buffer in the stack. Upon a successfull run it brings up a reverse
*  shell with privileges of the pptpd daemon (typically root)
*  on the victim server.
