A stack buffer overflow have been discovered in the Amaya [1] Web Editor's XHTML parser function:
ParseCharsetAndContentType(), wich can be used to compromise the victim's system via arbitrary code execution.
The overflow occurs when the application process the "charset" type from a crafted HTML page.If the charset
has a large amount of chars can lead to a stack buffer overflow and, maybe, be exploited using printable ASCII
characters. When the application was debugged, it showed that the overflow occurs in the function
"ParseCharsetAndContentType":
+++Amaya/amaya/XHTMLbuilder.c
68 void ParseCharsetAndContentType (Element el, Document doc)
69
70 {
71 AttributeType attrType;
72 Attribute attr;
73 ElementType elType;
74 CHARSET charset;
75 char *text, *text2, *ptrText, *str; XXX
76 char charsetname[MAX_LENGTH];
77 int length;
78 int pos, index = 0;
79
...
125
126 if (charset == UNDEFINED_CHARSET)
127 {
128 /* the charset is not already defined by the http header */
129 str = strstr (text2, "charset=");
130 if (str)
131 {
132 pos = str - text2 + 8;
133 while (text2[pos] != SPACE &&
134 text2[pos] != TAB && text2[pos] != EOS)
135 charsetname[index++] = text2[pos++]; XXX
136 charsetname[index] = EOS;
137 charset = TtaGetCharset (charsetname);
138 if (charset != UNDEFINED_CHARSET)
139 TtaSetDocumentCharset (doc, charset, FALSE);
140 }
141 }
142 TtaFreeMemory (text2);
143 }
144 }
145 }
146 TtaFreeMemory (text);
147 }
148 }
---Amaya/amaya/XHTMLbuilder.c
So, the application creates a buffer called "charsetname" with a length of 1024 bytes and then tries to fill
it with the charset type name, skipping the 8 bytes of "charset=", without making any type of length check.
If an HTML page has something like this it might produce the overflow:
+++
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset="AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...x1922" />

#=Proof of Concept=#=~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=#
The following perl script creates an HTML file that reproduces the overflow:
