Hacking IV: Privilege Escalation

We have successfully mastered our first step as an attacker: executing commands on our target system. But in most cases, we will only have succeeded in gaining the permissions of an unprivileged user, such as that of a Linux system user www-data in the case of executing a PHP command on a web server. But we want more. We want full control of the target system. Figuratively speaking, we want to be promoted from an unprivileged user to an administrator by expanding our permissions.
