-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Core Security Technologies - CoreLabs Advisory http://www.coresecurity.com/corelabs/ Google SketchUp 'lib3ds' 3DS Importer Memory Corruption 1. *Advisory Information* Title: Google SketchUp 'lib3ds' 3DS Importer Memory Corruption Advisory Id: CORE-2009-1209 Advisory URL: http://www.coresecurity.com/content/google-sketchup-vulnerability Date published: 2010-01-13 Date of last update: 2010-01-12 Vendors contacted: Google Release mode: Coordinated release 2. *Vulnerability Information* Class: Failure to Constrain Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer [CWE-119], Out-of-bounds Write [CWE-787] Impact: Code execution Remotely Exploitable: Yes (client-side) Locally Exploitable: No Bugtraq ID: 37708 CVE Name: CVE-2010-0280 3. *Vulnerability Description* Google SketchUp is a 3D modeling program designed for architects, civil engineers, filmmakers, game developers, and related professions. Google SketchUp bundles an old version of 'lib3ds', a library used to process 3DS files. This library is being compiled in a way that leads to improper validation of data when importing 3DS files; this condition can be exploited by remote attackers to trigger a memory corruption vulnerability by enticing an unsuspecting user to open a specially crafted 3DS file, possibly leading to arbitrary code execution. 4. *Vulnerable packages* . Google SketchUp 7.0.10247 . Google SketchUp 7.1.4871 . Google SketchUp 7.1.6087 . Older versions are probably affected too, but they were not checked. 5. *Non-vulnerable packages* . Google SketchUp 7.1.6860 (Windows) . Google SketchUp 7.6859 (MAC OS X) 6. *Vendor Information, Solutions and Workarounds* Users can download the latest version of Google SketchUp from http://sketchup.google.com 7. *Credits* This vulnerability was discovered and researched by Francisco Falcon from Core Security Technologies during Bugweek 2009 [1]. The publication of this advisory was coordinated by Jorge Lucangeli Obes from Core Security Advisories team. 8. *Technical Description / Proof of Concept Code* 8.1. *Introduction* Google SketchUp [2] is a 3D modeling program designed for architects, civil engineers, filmmakers, game developers, and related professions. Google SketchUp bundles an old version of 'lib3ds', a library used to process 3DS files. This library is being compiled in a way that leads to improper validation of data when importing 3DS files; this condition can be exploited by remote attackers to trigger a memory corruption vulnerability by enticing an unsuspecting user to open a specially crafted 3DS file, possibly leading to arbitrary code execution. When processing certain structures from a 3DS file, Google SketchUp trusts bytes from the 3DS file without performing validations and uses them as: 1. an operand in pointer arithmetics to calculate an index for an array where user-controlled data will be written. 2. a loop counter in a copy operation. These bytes are used by the application without proper validation of their values, leading to the issues described below. 8.2. *Memory Corruption* While importing 3DS files, Google SketchUp reads a sequence of 2-byte words from the .3DS file, starting at offset 0x6F49F. These words are used as operands in pointer arithmetics to calculate an index for an array where data will be copied to. However, the application does not check if the calculated index is inside the bounds of the destination array. By crafting a 3DS file with large values for the words located at the mentioned offset, the lack of bounds-checking can be exploited to write data outside the limits of the array, leading to a memory corruption vulnerability. The following disassembled code of the Google SketchUp 3DS Importer module illustrates the vulnerability. As we can see, the data that is copied into the array is fetched from the 3DS file starting at offset 0x6F491. That means that if the memory corruption vulnerability is triggered, the data that will overwrite memory contents is fully controlled by the attacker. /----- [Module:3DSImporter.dll] 0603AD86 |. 8B97 A8000000 ||MOV EDX,DWORD PTR DS:[EDI+A8] ; EDX = pointer to destination array 0603AD8C |. 0FB7C0 ||MOVZX EAX,AX ; AX = words starting at offset 0x6F49F (user-controlled) 0603AD8F |. 83C4 04 ||ADD ESP,4 0603AD92 |. 6BC0 5C ||IMUL EAX,EAX,5C 0603AD95 |. 8D4C24 18 ||LEA ECX,DWORD PTR SS:[ESP+18] 0603AD99 |. 8D5410 04 ||LEA EDX,DWORD PTR DS:[EAX+EDX+4] ; calculates the index of the array where it will write, using user-controlled data 0603AD9D |. 8D49 00 ||LEA ECX,DWORD PTR DS:[ECX] 0603ADA0 |> 8A01 ||/MOV AL,BYTE PTR DS:[ECX] ; reads bytes starting at offset 0x6F491 (user-controlled) 0603ADA2 |. 8802 |||MOV BYTE PTR DS:[EDX],AL ; copies the byte in AL to the array; *MEMORY CORRUPTION OCCURS HERE* 0603ADA4 |. 83C1 01 |||ADD ECX,1 0603ADA7 |. 83C2 01 |||ADD EDX,1 0603ADAA |. 84C0 |||TEST AL,AL 0603ADAC |.^ 75 F2 ||\JNZ SHORT 3DSImpor.0603ADA0 ; keep copying till AL = 0 - -----/ 8.2.1. *Vulnerable function* We believe the vulnerable function to be face_array_read(), starting at line 238 in file src/lib3ds_mesh.c of lib3ds. The vulnerable code is executed in case CHK_MSH_MAT_GROUP of the following switch statement: /----- [Function:src/lib3ds_mesh.c:face_array_read()] switch (chunk) { case CHK_MSH_MAT_GROUP: { char name[64]; unsigned n; unsigned i; int index; int material; lib3ds_io_read_string(io, name, 64); material = lib3ds_file_material_by_name(file, name); n = lib3ds_io_read_word(io); for (i = 0; i < n; ++i) { index = lib3ds_io_read_word(io); if (index < mesh->nfaces) { /* <- bounds check */ mesh->faces[index].material = material; } else { // TODO warning } } break; } - -----/ In the latest version of lib3ds, version 2.0, there is a bounds check present in the code. However, in the vulnerable Google SketchUp binary there is no bounds check. Moreover, the assignment following the bounds check does not match the assembler in the binary, but the previous version of lib3ds does match. In version 1.3.0 of lib3ds 'strcpy' is used to copy a string into the array, which is what the binary shows. The file is lib3ds/mesh.c, line 77: /----- [Function:lib3ds/mesh.c:77] case LIB3DS_MSH_MAT_GROUP: { char name[64]; unsigned faces; unsigned i; unsigned index; if (!lib3ds_io_read_string(io, name, 64)) { return(LIB3DS_FALSE); } faces=lib3ds_io_read_word(io); for (i=0; i<faces; ++i) { index=lib3ds_io_read_word(io); ASSERT(index<mesh->faces); /* <- assert for bounds check */ strcpy(mesh->faceL[index].material, name); } } - -----/ It seems that SketchUp is being compiled in a way that removes the assert, leaving the shipped binary without the bounds check. 8.3. *Additional input validation problem* There is an additional input validation problem in the same function of the 3DS Importer module, which may imply security problems if the function is later modified. The copy operation shown above in the disassembled code excerpt is located inside an outer loop. The counter for this outer loop is directly loaded from the 2-byte word located at offset 0x6F49D of the 3DS file without any validations; by providing a 3DS file with a large value for the word located at the mentioned offset, an attacker may cause the application to loop more times than the expected. This behavior could lead to a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability under a slightly different scenario. Right now, a large value for the word located at offset 0x6F49D of the 3DS file will likely trigger the memory corruption vulnerability described above, because the application will continue reading 2-byte words from the file beyond the intended limit, to use them in the calculation of the index for the array where data will be copied to; if any of these words has a large enough value, the memory corruption condition will be triggered, as previously explained. The following disassembled code shows this input validation problem: /----- 0603AD7C |. 8BF0 |MOV ESI,EAX ; ESI=loop counter, byte at offset 0x6F49D (user-controlled) 0603AD7E |. 8BFF |MOV EDI,EDI 0603AD80 |> 53 |/PUSH EBX 0603AD81 |.
