Confirmed Macosx is not vulnerable to this.

Well, yeah. The script depends on lynx and wget being available, and  
neither is installed on OS X. It also depends on the line-by-line  
layout of several include files, one of which (linux/wireless.h)  
doesn't even exist on non-Linux systems.

It won't even work on all Linux systems. If the target doesn't have  
compilers available, for example, it won't have any headers to grab  
the target strings from.
