That way you should have root on the first box to start exploiting others, kind of weird.

smells like rootkit downloader to me.

Anybody willing to make a strace of this program ??

A previous poster mentioned that after exploiting a test/test or guest/guest account, an attacker downloaded SuckIt to his machine, got root using some unspecified local vuln (he said it was a very unpatched mcahine), and started from there.


The program IS linked against OpenSSL and appears to inintiate an ssh connection with the target(s) in a separate text file (uniq.txt). I can't follow the connection because of the encryption, but it seems to be trying a user and then disconnecting (as in, I see nothing really obviously out of the ordinary when I run it). Haven't got farther in disassembling it yet.
