I've been trying to determine if it's exploitable, and couldn't
reproduce what you described. I want to know if there is some other
information I need to know... here is what I tried:
an rtf file with
{\rtf\AAAAAAAAA...} a lot of As (tryed 32,49,1000,2000,...
5000...
20000)
nothing happened until 5000, where I got a crash but not with
EIP==
0x41414141 but with ESI==0x41414141 on a 'push [esi]'. ESI was copyed
previously from the stack, but on the stack there where only 4 As here,
8 As there, a so...
then on 10000 As I got a different crash, with EDI==0x41414141,
but
never got EIP==0x41414141.
Anyway, it MAY be exploitable, but doesn't look simple...
Then I tryed a differen aproach I got
http://www.securityfocus.com, I used a real rtf file and appended
the same amount (32,49,...) of As after the first '\', but got exactly
the same results...
could anybody reproduce this bug?
