The first program( The C source code ), exploits an stack overwrite in
glibc 2.x.  There is an RPM update for that available at redhat.com.

Judging from the strings output of the second program ( the binary ), I am
going to guess that it is an exploit for a stack overwrite in the dip
program.  This might be the old dip exploit from several years ago( if it
is, most systems nowadays won't be vulnerable to it ).
