Winamp 5.63 – Stack Buffer Overflow
Inshell Security Advisory http://www.inshell.net 1. ADVISORY INFORMATION ----------------------- Product: WinAmp Vendor URL: www.winamp.com Type: Stack-based Buffer Overflow [CWE-121] Date found: 2013-06-05 Date published: 2013-07-01 CVSSv2 Score: Bug #1: 7,5 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P) Bug #2: 3,7 (AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P) CVE: CVE-2013-4694 2. CREDITS ---------- These vulnerabilities were discovered and researched by Julien Ahrens from Inshell Security. 3. VERSIONS AFFECTED -------------------- WinAmp v5.63, older versions may be affected too. 4. VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION (BUG #1) ------------------------------------- The application loads the directories in %PROGRAMFILES%\WinAmp\Skins on startup to determine the skins that have been installed and to list them in the application menu point "Skins" and in the Skins Browser. But the application does not properly validate the length of the directory name before passing it as argument to a lstrcpynW call in the library gen_jumpex.dll, which leads to a buffer overflow condition with possible code execution. This flaw is also exploitable via the %APPDATA%\WinAmp\winamp.ini. The application loads the contents on startup, but does not properly validate the length of the string loaded from the "skin" key before passing it as an argument to the same lstrcpynW call in the library gen_jumpex.dll, which leads to the same buffer overflow condition. An attacker either needs to trick the victim to download and apply an arbitrary skin package in order to exploit the vulnerability or to copy an arbitrary winamp.ini into the %APPDATA%\WinAmp directory. Successful exploits can allow attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. Failed exploits will result in a denial-of-service condition. 4. VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION (BUG #2) ------------------------------------- The application loads the string of the GUI "Search" field from the "WinAmp Library" when entered by a user and after switching to another menu point, but does not properly validate the length of the string before passing it as an argument to a GetDlgItemTextW call in the library ml_local.dll, which leads to a buffer overflow condition with possible code execution. An attacker needs local access to the client in order to exploit the vulnerability. Successful exploits can allow attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. Failed exploits will result in a denial-of-service condition. 5.
