Oh come on, you know what I'm saying. It's small when written in python, which means any skid can spew it into a server he's got a shell on and get root in 2 seconds. He doesn't need to hope there's already a compiler installed, nor does he need to download some big tool. Just:
And I'm sure it can be refined into something much more likable to the spooky types, if they haven't already done it.Again, Linux LPE via either vulns or misconfigured permissions / binaries is common.
People who run servers that give out shell access to uses or randos already needed to contend with this.
