Full title: Linux/x86 Dynamic MMX+FPU Encoded Add Root User Shellcode (155 bytes) 
Category: shellcode
Platform: linux/x86
155 bytes small Linux/x86 shellcode that has a MMX stub decoder that dynamically decodes the payload in memory. The FPU GetPC technique is used to determine the offset from EIP dynamically in running memory. Once decoded. this shellcode adds the user 'ctl' with the password 'ctl' to the /etc/passwd file with the UID and GID of 0 (root). This shellcode uses legacy passwd functionality. Therefore the /etc/shadow file does not need to be accessed or modified.
