 *  0x?? (the size of the following "data", 255MAX(char/int8))        *
 *  0x??,0x??,0x?? ... ("data")                                       *
 *                                                                    *
 *  ie. "\x05\x00\x05\x00\x00\x03\xffxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx..." *
 *                                                                    *
 * the "data", limited by the previous byte, is then copied into a    *
 * 10 byte buffer labeled buf[].  the idea is to set the size of      *
 * the incoming data to a larger size than expected(ie. 0xff/255MAX), *
 * followed by sending that amount of data to exceed the 10 byte      *
 * buffer boundary and overwrite memory addresses(stack based).       *
 *                                                                    *
 * the problem with the size limit is that it is defined in one       *
 * character(char/int8), making a maximum of up to 255 bytes to be    *
 * written to buf[].  so, this only leaves about ~100+ nops breathing *
 * room per offset.  another problem is that the location of the      *
 * shellcode depends on where/what X-Chat has already done.  those    *
 * two things together make for a very unpractical "in the wild"      *
 * exploit scenario.                                                  *
 *                                                                    *
 * i just saw several cryptic advisories about this bug, so i figured *
 * i would look into it and see exactly what it was.                  *
 *                                                                    *
 * if X-Chat attempts to connect to a server(through socks-5)         *
 * immediately upon the start of X-Chat("autoconnect") it will make   *
 * the shellcode location a bit easier to find.  on both source       *
 * compiled version 1.8.0(on rh7.1) and mandrake's rpm static binary  *
 * version 2.0.5(on mdk9.1) an offset of 2600 worked.                 *
 *                                                                    *
 * note: the first thing that is sent to the bindshell, upon          *
 * successful exploitation, is "killall -9 xchat".  this will kill    *
 * X-Chat, but still keep the bindshell alive/active.  when searching *
 * for the correct offset, use increments of 100(100,200,300,...).    *
