Aprelium Abyss Webserver X1 Arbitrary Code Execution and Header Injection
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
<http://www.aprelium.com/> Abyss Web Server is "a free, closed-source,
personal web server for Windows and Linux operating systems". The
Hackademy Audit team has found two remote security holes in Abyss
Webserver X1, allowing arbitrary code execution and header injection.
DETAILS
Vulnerable systems:
* Aprelium Abyss Webserver version 1.1.2
Immune systems:
* Aprelium Abyss Webserver version 1.1.6
Remotely Exploitable Heap Buffer Overflow
A buffer of length 0x800 is allocated on the heap. An unchecked call to
strcpy() can overflow this buffer with a string of almost arbitrary length
and content which is given by a malicious attacker. The request leading to
the overflow is the following. The important part is the two characters
":\" at the end of the requested URL:
GET /AAAAAA[...]AAAA:\ HTTP/1.0
Impact:
Arbitrary code can be executed on the machine running Abyss Webserver X1
with the privileges of the user running the server. This issue is not
theoretical: we wrote a functional exploit, without need for offset
guessing or brute forcing, which works on Windows 2000 and XP (any SP).
Header Injection Vulnerability
With the same type of request a 302 HTTP code is returned by Abyss X1. The
Location header sent by the server contains the URL initially requested,
but with %xx decoded to ASCII values. Embedding %0D, %0A, and %20 codes
into the URL is allowed, meaning HTTP headers can be added.
Impact:
This can lead to XSS issues, setting arbitrary cookies, etc.
