#!/usr/bin/perl use Net::FTP; # Exploit Title: Easy Chat Server 3.1 - Denial of Service (DoS) # Discovery by: Fernando Mengali # Discovery Date: 05 january 2024 # Vendor Homepage: N/A # Download to demo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZbfeaWSEKlpvCG1eUtD0vNnfkNz_8PlE/view # Notification vendor: No reported # Tested Version:Easy Chat Server 3.1 # Tested on: Window XP Professional - Service Pack 2 and 3 - English # Vulnerability Type: Denial of Service (DoS) # Vídeo: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rG6uTXTg3cTg86qmp9rh2ozQfyOV_Av7/view #1. Description #His technique works fine against Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 and 3 (English). #For this exploit I have tried several strategies to increase reliability and performance: #Jump to a static 'call esp' #Backwards jump to code a known distance from the stack pointer. #The server did not properly handle request with large amounts of data via method GET to web server. #The following request sends a large amount of data to the web server to process across method GET, the server will crash as soon as it is received and processed, causing denial of service conditions. #Successful exploitation of these issues allows remote attackers to crash the affected server, denying service to legitimate users. #2.
