Logging TTYPs on people that are Dumb enough to allow r on their TTYP. Script and Text By The Darkling Darkling69@mintprimary.com www.FTH.org A while ago I wrote a txt about terminal flooding and the ablity to write to some ones ttyp (or terminal) and do potentional damage. No skill involved. So here i was sitting at my computer wishing for a way to see what other people on the system were doing. I notcied that one of the ttyps have a r on it for other. wow. It struck me that if you could write to it, why couldn't you read it? I tried just open it up in a text editor, absolutly nothing. I guesse becuase the commands arn't logged on your Terminal, they just pass right threw it. So I tried this cat /dev/ttyp0 & Wow now whenever he typed a command it was echoed to my screen. Kewlies I thought, I can now read his terminal. But haveing it output to my screen was inconvientent, so I wrote this little script that if you can't write yourself you should not even be reading this. #!/bin/bash cat /dev/ttyp$1 > logfile$1 & echo logging commands to logfile$1 nice little compct script. Anyways, thers something else. I wonder since some people have rwx on their ttyp's what could you do with the X? I already know how to read it and write to it. but how and to what effect could we run it ? The Darkling
