Discussion
SCO OpenServer accept Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
SCO OpenServer 5.0.6 (and possibly earlier versions) ships with several suid 'bin' executables used in printer administration and related tasks.
This includes accept, a component used to receive and queue print requests submitted to a printserver.
'accept' contains a confirmed locally exploitable buffer overflow condition present in the handling of command-line parameters.
If properly exploited, this can yield user 'bin' privileges to the attacker.
