Remove the sock_exec code which is no longer needed and additionally has been used by exploit code. This was originally test support code, the tests relying on the sock_exec code have been removed. Past exploits have used sock_exec as a proxy for system() matching a talloc destructor prototype. See for example: Exploit for Samba vulnerabilty (CVE-2015-0240) at https://gist.github.com/worawit/051e881fc94fe4a49295 and the Red Hat post at https://access.redhat.com/blogs/766093/posts/1976553 Signed-off-by: Gary Lockyer <gary@catalyst.net.nz> Reviewed-by: Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Garming Sam <garming@catalyst.net.nz> Autobuild-User(master): Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org> Autobuild-Date(master): Mon Nov 20 07:20:13 CET 2017 on sn-devel-144
