* This tool exploits a buffer underflow in glibc realpath()
* and was tested against latest release from Debian, Ubuntu
* Mint. It is intended as demonstration of ASLR-aware exploitation
* techniques. It uses relative binary offsets, that may be different
* for various Linux distributions and builds. Please send me
* a patch when you developed a new set of parameters to add
* to the osSpecificExploitDataList structure and want to contribute
* them.
*
* Compile: gcc -o RationalLove RationalLove.c
* Run: ./RationalLove
*
* You may also use "--Pid" parameter, if you want to test the
* program on already existing namespaced or chrooted mounts.

## Description
This module attempts to gain root privileges on Linux systems by abusing
a vulnerability in GNU C Library (glibc) version 2.26 and prior.
This module uses halfdog's RationalLove exploit to exploit a buffer
underflow in glibc realpath() and create a SUID root shell. The exploit
has offsets for glibc versions `2.23-0ubuntu9` and `2.24-11+deb9u1`.
The target system must have unprivileged user namespaces enabled.
## Vulnerable Application
This module has been tested successfully on:
* Ubuntu Linux 16.04.3 (x86_64) with glibc version `2.23-0ubuntu9`
* Debian 9.0 (x86_64) with glibc version `2.24-11+deb9u1`
## Verification Steps
1. Start `msfconsole`
2. Get a session
3. `use exploit/linux/local/glibc_realpath_priv_esc`
4. `set SESSION [SESSION]`
5. `check`
6. `run`
7. You should get a new *root* session
## Options
**SESSION**
Which session to use, which can be viewed with `sessions`
**WritableDir**
A writable directory file system path. (default: `/tmp`)
**COMPILE**
Options: `Auto` `True` `False` (default: `Auto`)
Whether the exploit should be live compiled with `gcc` on the target system,
or uploaded as a pre-compiled binary.
`Auto` will first determine if `gcc` is installed to compile live on the system,
and fall back to uploading a pre-compiled binary.
## Scenarios
```
msf5 > use exploit/linux/local/glibc_realpath_priv_esc
msf5 exploit(linux/local/glibc_realpath_priv_esc) > set session 1
session => 1
msf5 exploit(linux/local/glibc_realpath_priv_esc) > run
