I'm writing a script that will search for files with the SUID bit turned on, and put the list in a file called id.txt
i read that files with the SUID bit turned on are chmod'd to 4000, so i tried:
find / -perm 4000 > id.txt
also various others such as -perm 4777 etc etc
but it found nothing... (1 Reply)
Hi,
Here is the issue. From the program snippet I have Base: 0x1800000000, Size: 0x3FFE7FFFFFFFF which are of 40 and 56 bits. SO I used use bignum to do the math but summing them up I always failed having correct result.

Hey guys,
Suppose i run passwd via bash shell. It is a suid program, which temporarily runs as root(owner) and modifies the user entries.
However, when i write a C file and give 4755 permission and root ownership to the 'a.out' file , it doesn't run as root in bash shell. I verified this by... (2 Replies)

stat
STAT(2) System Calls Manual STAT(2)NAME
stat, fstat - get file status
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
stat(name, buf)
char *name;
struct stat *buf;
fstat(fildes, buf)
struct stat *buf;
DESCRIPTION
Stat obtains detailed information about a named file. Fstat obtains the same information about an open file known by the file descriptor
from a successful open, creat, dup or pipe(2) call.
Name points to a null-terminated string naming a file; buf is the address of a buffer into which information is placed concerning the file.
It is unnecessary to have any permissions at all with respect to the file, but all directories leading to the file must be searchable. The
layout of the structure pointed to by buf as defined in <stat.h> is given below. St_mode is encoded according to the `#define' statements.
The mode bits 0000070 and 0000007 encode group and others permissions (see chmod(2)). The defined types, ino_t, off_t, time_t, name vari-
ous width integer values; dev_t encodes major and minor device numbers; their exact definitions are in the include file <sys/types.h> (see
types(5).
When fildes is associated with a pipe, fstat reports an ordinary file with restricted permissions. The size is the number of bytes queued
in the pipe.
st_atime is the file was last read. For reasons of efficiency, it is not set when a directory is searched, although this would be more
logical. st_mtime is the time the file was last written or created. It is not set by changes of owner, group, link count, or mode.
st_ctime is set both both by writing and changing the i-node.
SEE ALSO ls(1), filsys(5)DIAGNOSTICS
Zero is returned if a status is available; -1 if the file cannot be found.
