Description:

There exists a vulnerability with certain configurations of certain ftp daemons with which users with a valid ftp only acccount on a system may execute arbitrary commands (including binaries supplied by themselves). There also exists the possibilty that anonymous ftp users may execute arbitrar y commands (also including binaries supplied by themselves). While this vulnerability is entirely configuration dependent. The required configuration is rather common. Exploit information here.

Attacking FreeBSD with Kernel Modules - The System Call Approach. System calls can be backdoored on FreeBSD much like they can on linux, and most linux kernel modules can easily be ported to FreeBSD. Includes information on intercepting system calls, filesystem related hacks, hiding files and contests, process related hacks, file execution redirection, tty hijacking, and module hiding.

Beginners Guide to Linux + Easy Installation Guide version 1.1 - I'd bet some of the people reading this description are using Windows, and are afraid to install Unix on their computer for some reason. "Sure, Unix does all those cool things and has better security and most Unix programs are open-source, but what will happen if I'll screw up with the installation and delete my old copy of Windows?" Black Sun Research Facility presents - an easy to understand and simple installation guide for Redhat Linux and Mandrake Linux, the two most easiest-to-install distributions (although this tutorial is good for other common Linux distributions as well).

Commonly overlooked audit trails on intrusions. This is my attempt of compiling a 'top list' of audit trails that are being left after intrusions where the intruders try to cover their tracks but don't do a good job. To put it short, there are actually a lot of audit trails on a normal UNIX system, which can almost all be overcome, but with some effort, that most intruders evade.

Description:
|
Paper on writing advanced buffer overflow exploits. The early buffer overflow exploit codes only spawn a shell ( execute /bin/sh ). However, nowadays some of the buffer overflow exploit codes have very nice features. For example, passing through filtering, opening a socket, breaking chroot, and so on. This paper will attempt to explain the advanced buffer overflow exploit skill under intel x86 linux.
