'Name' => 'Linux Kernel 4.6.3 Netfilter Privilege Escalation',  
'Description' => %q{  
This module attempts to exploit a netfilter bug on Linux Kernels befoe 4.6.3, and currently  
only works against Ubuntu 16.04 (not 16.04.1) with kernel  
4.4.0-21-generic.  
Several conditions have to be met for successful exploitation:  
Ubuntu:  
1. ip_tables.ko (ubuntu), iptable_raw (fedora) has to be loaded (root running iptables -L will do such)  
2. libc6-dev-i386 (ubuntu), glibc-devel.i686 & libgcc.i686 (fedora) needs to be installed to compile  
Kernel 4.4.0-31-generic and newer are not vulnerable.  
  
We write the ascii files and compile on target instead of locally since metasm bombs for not  
having cdefs.h (even if locally installed)
