    or:
    lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           11 Apr 15 12:01 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 
    -> ld-2.2.4.so
    
    	This file gives users the ability of running binaries on witch the 
    user doesn't have the permission to execute, it is enough to have read 
    ability on the file in order to execute it:
    
    -rwxr-xr--    1 root     root        45948 Aug  9  2001 /bin/ls
    
    but using the /lib/ld-2.2.4.so file i can execute the ls command:
    
    [08:51:36][draven@Zero:~]:$/lib/ld-2.2.4.so /bin/ls /
    bin   bzImage   bzImage3  bzImage5  dev  home    lib   mnt  proc  sbin  
    usr
    boot  bzImage2  bzImage4  bzImage6  etc  initrd  misc  opt  root  tmp   
    var
    
    i do not have root preveleges on this account:
    
    [08:51:38][draven@Zero:~]:$id
    uid=1000(draven) gid=10(wheel) groups=10(wheel),16(trust)
    
    The most interesting part is running binaries on partitions mounted with 
    noexec, lets take this partition:
    
    /dev/sda9 on /home/friends type ext2 
    (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,usrquota,grpquota)
    
    i've created a shell acount with the home directory:
    
    [mjj@Zero mjj]$ pwd
    /home/friends/mjj
    
    and wrote this C code in a file test.c
    
    #include <stdio.h>
    void main(void)
    {
            printf ("Test");
    }
    
    i've compiled it & tryed to run:
    
    [mjj@Zero mjj]$ ./a.out
    bash: ./a.out: Permission denied
    
    but when i try to run it with /lib/ld-2.2.4.so:
    
    [mjj@Zero mjj]$ /lib/ld-2.2.4.so ./a.out
    Test
    
    the important thing is to include a full path in the binary name to be 
    able to execute it.
    in the same way i've managed to run the ptrace exploit on a nosuid 
    partition
    i'm running a 2.4.18 kernel with grsecurity-1.9.4 patch on a Red Hat 
    Linux 7.2 box, but i've succeded running this file on different linux 
    boxes and i've been succesfull, please if anyone know how to eliminate 
    this hole in my security give me a replay. If i try to change the mode on 
    /lib/ls-2.2.4.so to 700, the users will not be able to login on my linux 
    box, so this is not a solution:)
    
    10x,
    Dan Sabau
