INetCop Security Advisory #2002-0x82-008
========================================
* Title: Remote Multiple Buffer Overflow(s) vulnerability in Libcgi-tuxbr.
0x01. Description
LIBCGI is a simple of functions to create CGI programs in C.
It provides support for both GET and POST request methods,
parsing data, an URLDecode function, access to MySQL functions,
and excellent documentation.
Vulnerability happens because of 'parse_field()' function.
It's in 129 lines of 'cgi_lib.c' code.
Let's examine. :-)
__
129 void parse_field(char *field, char *rtnfield)
...
132 char *ptr,
133 *endptr,
134 tmp_field[128];
...
137 sprintf(tmp_field,"%s=",field); // "field1="
138
139 if((ptr=strstr(req_http,tmp_field))!=NULL)
140 {
141 ptr+=strlen(tmp_field); // "[value]&field2=[value2]&field3=[value3]"
142
143 if((endptr=strchr(ptr,'&'))!=NULL) // "&field2=[value2]&field3=[value3]"
144 {
145 memmove(rtnfield, ptr, (endptr - ptr)+1); // here.
146 rtnfield[(endptr - ptr)]='\0';
147 }
...

Attacker can change flowing of program easily in remote.
0x02. Vulnerable Packages
Vendor site: http://www.tuxbr.com.br/
libcgi-1.0.3
-libcgi-1.0.3.tar.gz
+Linux
libcgi-1.0.2
-libcgi-1.0.2.tar.gz
0x03. Exploit
There is very good CGI example program.
The CGI program uses parse_field().
Example CGI Program: /cgi-bin/sample3.cgi
let's examine source code.
__
6 char name[64], // 64
7 address[64],
8 tel[64];
...
12 parse_field("name",name); // exploitable !
13 parse_field("address",address);
14 parse_field("telephone",tel);

I'm going to do test simply.
See well.

It's very basic stack based overflow.
