      'Description'    => %q{
        This module exploits a directory traversal vulnerability in the
        `dtappgather` executable included with Common Desktop Environment (CDE)
        on unpatched Solaris systems prior to Solaris 10u11 which allows users
        to gain root privileges.

        dtappgather allows users to create a user-owned directory at any
        location on the filesystem using the `DTUSERSESSION` environment
        variable.

        This module creates a directory in `/usr/lib/locale`, writes a shared
        object to the directory, and runs the specified SUID binary with the
        shared object loaded using the `LC_TIME` environment variable.

        This module has been tested successfully on:

        Solaris 9u7 (09/04) (x86);
        Solaris 10u1 (01/06) (x86);
        Solaris 10u2 (06/06) (x86);
        Solaris 10u4 (08/07) (x86);
        Solaris 10u8 (10/09) (x86);
        Solaris 10u9 (09/10) (x86).
