Zero Day Initiative Advisory 11-308

Zero Day Initiative Advisory 11-308
Posted Oct 26, 2011
Authored by Tipping Point | Site zerodayinitiative.com

Zero Day Initiative Advisory 11-308 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Cisco WebEx Player. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists in ATAS32.DLL during the parsing of values defined within the WRF file format. The vulnerable code trusts the linesProcessed value from the file, and uses it in some logic to determine the destination pointer for a memcpy. By supplying an overly large linesProcessed value, the subtraction would cause an integer underflow and allows an attacker control of the destination buffer pointer. This can be further leveraged to execute arbitrary code under the context of the current user.

-- CVE ID:
CVE-2011-4004

-- CVSS:
9, AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:C

-- Affected Vendors:

Cisco



-- Affected Products:

Cisco WebEx



-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of Cisco WebEx Player. User interaction is
required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a
malicious page or open a malicious file.

The specific flaw exists in ATAS32.DLL during the parsing of values
defined within the WRF file format. The vulnerable code trusts the
linesProcessed value from the file, and uses it in some logic to
determine the destination pointer for a memcpy. By supplying an overly
large linesProcessed value, the subtraction would cause an integer
underflow and allows an attacker control of the destination buffer
pointer. This can be further leveraged to execute arbitrary code under
the context of the current user.

-- Vendor Response:

Cisco has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More details

The ZDI is unique in how the acquired vulnerability information is
used. TippingPoint does not re-sell the vulnerability details or any
exploit code. Instead, upon notifying the affected product vendor,
TippingPoint provides its customers with zero day protection through
its intrusion prevention technology. Explicit details regarding the
specifics of the vulnerability are not exposed to any parties until
an official vendor patch is publicly available. Furthermore, with the
altruistic aim of helping to secure a broader user base, TippingPoint
provides this vulnerability information confidentially to security
vendors (including competitors) who have a vulnerability protection or
mitigation product.
