qwik-smtpd Format String
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
The <http://qwikmail.sourceforge.net/smtpd/> QwikMail SMTP server
(qwik-smtpd) is "a fast, secure, and efficient mail server (MTA). It is
written in C and many security precautions have been taken to ensure that
the code is safe".
A format string vulnerability in qwik-smtpd allows a remote attacker to
cause it to execute arbitrary code. The following exploit code can be used
to test your system for the mentioned vulnerability.
DETAILS
Exploit:
/*
** qwik-smtp Remote Root Exploit
** -------------------------------
**
** Bug found by: Dark Eagle <darkeagle [at] list d0t ru>
** Exploit coded by: Carlos Barros <barros [at] barrossecurity d0t com>
** Home Page: http://www.barrossecurity.com
**
** Exploitation techinique:
**
** This bug is a simple format string bug. While coding this exploit, I
found just two
** "problems". The first is that our buffer is only 32 bytes long and the
second is that
** qwik-smtpd filters spaces chars with the isspace(), this way our 0x0b
code used in the
** shellcode is filtered. To circumvent the first problem I divided the
exploit in two
** stages. The first one overwrite the LSW of the exit() GOT entry and the
second overwrite
** the MSW. Then, we send an EXIT command forcing the qwik-smtpd to jump
into our shellcode.
** The second problem was "fixed" using another char (0x10) and then
decrementing it before
** calling the int 0x80 syscall.
**
** Notes:
**
** You MUST enter your external IP Address (when attacking remotely) or
127.0.0.1 (when
** attacking locally) cause its IP is printed before our buffer, so its
length MUST enter
** in the calculation of the format string attack.
**
** sprintf(Received,"Received: from %s (HELO %s) (%s) by %s with
SMTP; %s\n",
** clientHost, clientHelo, clientIP, localHost, timebuf);
** ----------
** Destination MUST be one valid email address on the target machine. If
not, it will reply
** with one erro code like this:
**
** -> Sending RCPT TO ... ERROR - 550 user not here
**
** Screenshot:
**
** [barros@BarrosSecurity qwik]$ ./a.out -h localhost -u barros@teste.com
-t 0 -i 127.0.0.1
