Big Security Hole in Solaris 2.X (X)passwd + exploit

 " Another letter - another bug "

An Exploit for a Big Big security hole in passwd ( + yppasswd and nispasswd)

Under Solaris 2.X passwd, yppasswd and nispasswd can be overflowed in 
an internal function ( some like sa_chauthtok() ). Using a buffer 
overflow exploit anyone can gain root access (passwd need suid exec bit 
from root). passwd has a second  overflow bug  when it is called with 
'-s' option in an internal strcpy().

I written two exploits one for Solaris 2.4 and one for Solaris 2.5 for 
sa_chauthtok() type function ( passwd LEMON_BUFFER ). It's a little trick 
here - the LEMON_BUFFER is shifted in memory with 1 char after exec so it 
must to shift the LEMON_BUFFER in a reverse direction before exec - 
that's happening only for a special combination of the exec args - 
see my exploits.

A way to prevent the exploit is to rename passwd, nispasswd and yppasswd 
and get out suid-exec bit. After that you have to compile a little 
program ( some like newpass.c ) with name passwd or nispasswd or yppasswd  
like root and  give them suid-exec bit. You have to change the  "hidden_passwd" 
constant with the new name of Xpasswd files.
