Exploit for CVE-2022-38181 to run on FireTV 3rd gen Cube

This is a fork of security researcher Man Yue Mo's Pixel 6 POC for CVE_2022_38181. Read his detailed write-up of the vulnerability here. Changes have been made to account for FireOS's 32bit userspace. The POC exploits a bug in the ARM Mali kernel driver to gain arbitrary kernel code execution, which is then used to disable SELinux and gain root.

I used the following command to compile with clang in ndk-21:

android-ndk-r21d/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/armv7a-linux-androideabi30-clang -DSHELL mali_shrinker_mmap32.c -o gazelle_shrinker

The exploit should be run 30-90sec after the Cube boots for greatest reliability.
