Hi, > (Developing an exploit for this is left as an > exercise to the > malicious reader.) > Could u please explain how this can be done ? I am a novice and wanted to learn about developing exploits for buffer overflows. Basically, since the lftp is a FTP client, does it give us extra privileges on the client machine or is a remote attack possible ? Also, is it possible to spawn a shell as root even if the client is being run by another user ? (Does the prog have to be setuid = root) Thanx Vikas
