Vulnwatch: [xfocus-SD-051202]openMotif libUil Multiple vulnerability

[xfocus-SD-051202]openMotif libUil Multiple vulnerability

From: <alert7_at_xfocus.org>

Title: [xfocus-SD-051202]openMotif-libUil-Multiple_vulnerability

Affected version : openmotif 2.2.3(not got 2.2.4,so not test in
openmotif 2.2.4)
Product: http://www.motifzone.net/

xfocus (http://www.xfocus.org) have discovered multiple vulnerability in
openmotif libUil library. details following:

1: libUil.so diag_issue_diagnostic buffer overflow

Clients/uil/UilDiags.c
diag_issue_diagnostic()
    202 void diag_issue_diagnostic
    203 ( int d_message_number, src_source_record_type
*az_src_rec,
    204 int l_start_column, ...)
    205
    206 {
    207 va_list ap; /* ptr to variable
length parameter */
    208 int severity; /* severity of message */
    209 int message_number; /* message number */
    210 char msg_buffer[132]; /* buffer to construct
message */
    211 char ptr_buffer[buf_size]; /* buffer to construct
pointer */
    212 char loc_buffer[132]; /* buffer to construct
location */
    213 char src_buffer[buf_size]; /* buffer to hold source
line */
......
    293 va_start(ap, l_start_column);
    294
    295 #ifndef NO_MESSAGE_CATALOG
    296[1.1] vsprintf( msg_buffer,
    297 catgets(uil_catd, UIL_SET1, msg_cat_table[
message_number ],
    298 diag_rz_msg_table[ message_number ].ac_text),
    299 ap );
    300 #else
    301[1.2] vsprintf( msg_buffer,
    302 diag_rz_msg_table[ message_number ].ac_text,
    303 ap );

    304 #endif
    305 va_end(ap);

[1.1][1.2] call vsprintf will cause buffer overflow if ap is user-support
data,so if one local or remote application which used this library may
cause execute arbitrary code .

2: libUil.so open_source_file buffer voerflow

Clients/uil/UilSrcSrc.c

    620 status
    621 open_source_file( XmConst char *c_file_name,
    622 uil_fcb_type *az_fcb,
    623 src_source_buffer_type *az_source_buffer )
    624 {
    625
    626 static unsigned short main_dir_len = 0;
    627 boolean main_file;
    628 int i; /* loop index through
include files */
    629 char buffer[256];
    630
    631
    632 /* place the file name in the expanded_name buffer */
    633
    634[2.1] strcpy(buffer, c_file_name);
    635
    636 /* Determine if this is the main file or an include file. */
    637
    638 main_file = (main_fcb == NULL);
    639
[2.1] like above
