XMail 1.21 ‘sendmail’ local exploit (ret-into-libc)
This exploit is for XMail 1.21 'sendmail' which is a local exploit that yields uid root or gid mail. It is written in C and uses the ret-into-libc technique. It creates a mailroot directory and gets the libc base address. It then gets the system() and file() addresses and writes a file. It then exploits the vulnerability and waits for a shell. Finally, it executes the shell.
Mitigation:
Update to the latest version of XMail 1.21 'sendmail'
