is how exactly are local privelages gained? For example, under unix only programs suid/sgid that are vulnerable can sometimes be exploited to gain root.
Keep in mind, a program doesn't have to be suid/sgid to be run as root or other priviledged users. I don't know of any resources to answer your main question, but I would focus my efforts on system services and slimilar daemons. tim
