'Name' => 'ptrace Sudo Token Privilege Escalation',
'Description' => %q{
This module attempts to gain root privileges by blindly injecting into
the session user's running shell processes and executing commands by
calling `system()`, in the hope that the process has valid cached sudo
tokens with root privileges.
The system must have gdb installed and permit ptrace.
This module has been tested successfully on:
Debian 9.8 (x64); and
CentOS 7.4.1708 (x64).
