RCE Security Advisory http://www.rcesecurity.com 1. ADVISORY INFORMATION ----------------------- Product: VideoCharge Studio Vendor URL: www.videocharge.com Type: Stack-based Buffer Overflow [CWE-121] Date found: 2014-02-08 Date published: 2014-02-19 CVSSv2 Score: 7,6 (AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C) CVE: - 2. CREDITS ---------- This vulnerability was discovered and researched by Julien Ahrens from RCE Security. 3. VERSIONS AFFECTED -------------------- VideoCharge Studio v2.12.3.685 (latest) and other older versions may be affected too. 4. VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION ---------------------------- A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified in the latest version of VideoCharge Studio v2.12.3.685. The application sends several HTTP GET requests to www.videocharge.com in different situations like checking for available updates or during the license activation process. The HTTP responses of the website are parsed using the following function from cc.dll: static int __cdecl CHTTPResponse::GetHttpResponse(char const *,char const *,char *) This function reads the contents of the response page using an InternetReadFile() call with dwNumberOfBytesToRead set to 745 bytes. Afterwards the application uses an insecure strcpy() call to further process the received data: 1016D827 CALL cc.1020ACF0 ; strcpy() Although 745 bytes are enough to trigger the buffer overflow, the application additionally does not perform a validation of the Content-Length value of the HTTP response and executes the InternetReadFile() call a second time if the Content-Length value is greater than 745 with the dwNumberOfBytesToRead argument set to [Content-Length - 745] to make sure all bytes from the response are read, and uses the same strcpy() call to further process the received data, resulting in huge amounts of memory, that can be controlled by an attacker. This leads to a stack-based buffer overflow with an overwritten SEH chain, resulting in remote code execution. This vulnerability is only exploitable in a MITM scenario, therefor an attacker needs to spoof the DNS record of www.videocharge.com to redirect the traffic. Successful exploits can allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. Failed exploits will result in a denial-of-service condition. 5.
