Mac OS X 10.4.8 DiskManagement BOM (cron) Privilege Escalation Exploit using cronta

Code

                                                #!/usr/bin/ruby
# (c) 2006 LMH <lmh [at] info-pull.com>          (code from the other exploit, porting)
#          Kevin Finisterre <kf_lists [at] digitalmunition.com> (crontab rock and roll)
#
# Second exploit for MOAB-05-01-2007, uses crontab. much more simple than the other one.
# And works like a charm.
