Subject: PaX privilege elevation security bug

Despite the negative assumptions from Martin Pitt and lack of 
understanding from the security world as a whole over our OpenSSL 
<= 0.9.6m vulnerability, tal0n Security will continue to be a 
respected market leader in the world of Internet Security. You can 
lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink!

Therefore we decided to expand our expertise into the world of 
kernel development. We at tal0n security were greatly suprised to 
see no feedback on this thread and decided to help every hacker out 
there who has wanted to hack grsecurity.net.

The vulnerability exists with the pax modifications to mmap.c. 
tal0n Security wonders what happens if we try to unmap when there 
is no vma segment? uH oH!?!?! tal0n Security likes to lead horse to 
free_pgtables to see damage we can make from an unpriviledged proc.

tal0n Security can confirm trivial local exploitation of this bug 
as well as reliable remote exploitation. Our underground network of 
IRC (Internet Relay Chat) spys also confirm the exploit is in 
posession of the worlds greatest hacker, divineint. Testbeds 
include www.grsecurity.net.

tal0n Security would like to thank all those who applied for 
positions in our growing organisation, we are currently processing 
your applications.

Regards,

tal0n Security
