Looks like a pair of vice grips will do the job if you ask me (depending on how deep that nut is, and if you can get a good grip on it), if not head to walmart, I'm sure it cant be more than a few bucks.

could also be called a tamper proof torx (TP-XX, will be the size instead of a normal torx that is just T-XX)
