    I, the great pr0ix, have discovered a new technique for bruteforcing local
    suid binaries on any *nix operating system, which uncovers all exploitable
    bugs in the application.  Attached is a simple example program, which is
    verbosely and clearly commented, which details the methodology which I
    have discovered.  A more indepth article on my technique should be
    appearing in the next issue of Phrack.
    
    If you are unfamiliar with the concept of fuzztesting, I suggest that you
    take a look at the following applications:
    
    [1] FuzzerServer, http://www.atstake.com/research/tools/FuzzerServer.zip
    [2] SPIKE, http://www.atstake.com/research/tools/spike-v1.8.tar.gz
    [3] Sharefuzz, http://www.atstake.com/research/tools/sharefuzz1.0.tar.gz
    
    and, further reading on early fuzztesting techniques can be found at:
