Local exploit for IBM AIX versions 4.3.3, 5.1 and 5.2 which are vulnerable to a buffer overflow. The overflow is caused by improper bounds checking via the getlvcb and putlvcb utilities. By supplying a long command line option, a local attacker, with root group privileges, could overflow a buffer and gain root privileges on the system.
