SCO OpenServer 5 ships with several suid 'bin' executables used in printer administration and related tasks. This includes disable, a component used to suspend delivery of queued print tasks to a specific printer. 'disable' contains a confirmed locally exploitable buffer overflow condition present in the handling of command-line parameters. If properly exploited, this can yield user 'bin' privileges to the attacker.
