I finally decided to post a return-into-libc overflow exploit. This method
has been discussed on linux-kernel list a few months ago (special thanks to
Pavel Machek), but there was still no exploit. I'll start by speaking about
the fix, you can find the exploits (local only) below.
[ I recommend that you read the entire message even if you aren't running
Linux since a lot of the things described here are applicable to other
systems as well (perhaps someone will finally exploit those overflows in
Digital UNIX discussed here last year?). Also, this method might sometimes
be better than usual one (with shellcode) even if the stack is executable. ]
You can find the fixed version of my non-executable stack Linux kernel patch
at http://www.false.com/security/linux-stack/.
The problem is fixed by changing the address shared libraries are mmap()ed
at in such a way so it always contains a zero byte. With most vulnerabilities
the overflow is done with an ASCIIZ string, so this prevents the attacker
from passing parameters to the function, and from filling the buffer with
a pattern (requires to know the exact offset of the return address). I admit
someone might still find a libc function with no parameters (this also has
to be a single function, you can't call several of them in a row) that does
enough harm, and find the exact offset of the return address. However, this
gets quite complicated, especially for remote exploits, and especially for
those where you have to guess from the first try (and you also need to guess
the address in libc). So, like before, fix known vulnerabilities, and use
the patch to add an extra layer of security against those yet unknown.
I also fixed a bug with the binary header flag which allowed local users to
bypass the patch. Thanks to retch for reporting.
And one more good thing: I added a symlink-in-/tmp fix, originally by Andrew
Tridgell. I changed it to prevent from using hard links too, by simply not
allowing non-root users to create hard links to files they don't own, in +t
directories. This seems to be the desired behavior anyway, since otherwise
users couldn't remove such links they just created. I also added exploit
attempt logging, this code is shared with the non-executable stack stuff,
and was the reason to make it a single patch instead of two separate ones.
You can enable them separately anyway.
And now here goes the exploit for the well-known old overflow in lpr. This
one is simple, so it looks like a good starting point. Note: it doesn't
contain any assembly code, there's only a NOP opcode, but this one will
most likely not be used, it's for the case when system() is occasionally
at a 256 byte boundary. The exploit also doesn't have any fixed addresses.
Be sure to read comments in the exploit before you look at the next one.

The exploit above will crash after you exit the shell. This can be fixed by
using a 12 byte pattern (like described in the comment), and setting the
return address to point to exit() (we would need to find it first). This
would however increase the number of possible alignment values to try from
8 to 12, so I don't do it.
Now, a more complicated exploit, for the -xrm libX11 overflow. It has been
tested with color_xterm from Slackware 3.1. Will also work on other xterms
(tested with xterm and nxterm from RedHat 4.2), but providing a user shell
(not root), since these temporarily give up their privileges, and an extra
setuid() call would be required.
Actually, using this method it is possible to call two functions in a row
if the first one has exactly one parameter. The stack should look like this:
pointer to "/bin/sh"
pointer to the UID (usually to 0)
pointer to system()
stack pointer -> pointer to setuid()
This will require up to 16 values for the alignment. In this case, setuid()
will return into system(), and while system() is running the pointer to UID
will be at the place where system()'s return address should normally be, so
(again) the thing will crash after you exit the shell (but no solution this
time; who cares anyway?). I leave this setuid() stuff as an exercise for the
reader.
Another thing specific to this exploit is that GetDatabase() in libX11 uses
its parameter right before returning, so if we overwrite the return address
and a few bytes after it (like normal pattern filling would do), the exploit
wouldn't work. That was the reason the -xrm exploits posted were not stable,
and required to adjust the size exactly. With returning into libc, this was
not possible at all, since parameters to libc function should be right after
the return address. That's why I do a trick similar to my SuperProbe exploit:
overwrite a pointer to a structure that has a function pointer in it (their
function also has exactly one parameter, I was extremely lucky here again).
This trick requires three separate buffers filled with different patterns.
The first buffer is what I overflow with, while the two others are put onto
the stack separately (to make them larger). Again, there's no correct return
address from system(), and a pointer to some place on the stack is there.
This makes it behave quite funny when you exit the shell: an exploit attempt
is logged (when running my patch), since system() returns onto the stack. ;^)
You can just kill the vulnerable program you're running from instead of
exiting the shell if this is undesired.
Note that you have to link the exploit with the same shared libraries that
the vulnerable program. Also, it might be required to add 4 to ALIGNMENT2 if
the exploit doesn't work, even if it worked when running as another user...
