-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 sec-labs team proudly presents: Local ZoneAlarm Firewall (probably all versions - tested on v3.1) Device Driver vulnerability. by Lord YuP 04/08/2003 I. BACKGROUND ZoneAlarm is a very powerful and very common nowadays firewall for Windows produced by Zone Labs. (http://www.zonelabs.com) II. DESCRIPTION The driver installed with ZoneAlarm is vulnerable, and can be exploited in cause of that attacker can gain full system control (ring0 privileges). By sending properly formatted message to the ZoneAlarm Device Driver (VSDATANT - TrueVector Device Driver) you can cause an device driver memory overwrite. Overview, sending faked buffors with specific singal can cause a miscellaneous code execution: First signal should be send to overwrite specific memory location, in the current case it can be one of the case-if-statement. push 0 ;overlapped push offset bytes_returned ;bytes returned push 4 ;lpOutBuffer size push STATMENT_INSTRUCTION_POINTER ;memory to overwrite push 0 ;lpInBuffer size push 0 ;lpInBuffer push 8400000fh ;guess what X-D push vsdatant_handle ;device handle call DeviceIoControl ;send it! If the correct STATMENT_INSTRUCTION_POINTER will be put the address should be overwritten to 00060001h (example). After memory allocation at this address (inserting shellcode bla bla bla), the second signal must be send to jump into inserted code. That can be done with sending another signal: LpInBuffer: db STATMENT_OVERWRITTEN_NUMBER ;where to jump db 7 dup (0) ;data? dd temp_buff ;temp buffer db 10 dup (0) ;some space This one should be send with another dwIoControl code, however we are no longer publishing any exploits, even PoC (die kiddies) After sending second faked message, device driver will jump to the STATEMENT offset which was overwritten by first "signal" III. IMPACT The after sucessfull exploitation, attacker can obtain FULL SYSTEM CONTROL! In the worse for attacker option, OS can fault! IV.
