CVE-2001-0554 : Detail

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.

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/3064/info A boundary condition error exists in telnet daemons derived from the BSD telnet daemon. Under certain circumstances, the buffer overflow can occur when a combination of telnet protocol options are received by the daemon. The function responsible for processing the options prepares a response within a fixed sized buffer, without performing any bounds checking. This vulnerability is now being actively exploited. A worm is known to be circulating around the Internet. #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/in.h> #include <netdb.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <fcntl.h> /********************************************************************* Proof of concept netkit-0.17-7 local root exploit. Exploits buffer overflow in the AYT handling of in.telnetd, due to bad logic in the handling of snprintf(), and TESO advisory details were enough to allow me to put controlable addresses in arbitary heap locations. Heap based exploit. Overflow allows rewriting of some heap data, which allowed me to put a new heap structure in the input buffer, which let me do whatever I want. 'traceroute exploit story - By Dvorak, Synnergy Networks' was very helpful. Also malloc.c was good. *********************************************************************/ /* Notes about exploit 1) RedHat 7.0, exploiting localhost 2) hostname is clarity.local 3) It probably won't work without at least a different setting for the --size option, and probably the --name option as well. The --name arguemnt is the hostname part of the string that gets returned by the AYT command, which may be different to the name of the address you are connecting to.. 4) There are a lot of things that use the heap, making the size depend on alot of factors. 5) You will might need to change some (or all) of the offsets. This program does allow you to brute force, if the hostname returned by the AYT command is not a multiple of 3 letters long. It is also possibly (at least according to some quick testing I did) exploitable on some (all?) servers with names that are multiples of three letters long, using the Abort Output command to add 2 characters to the output length, and exploit the heap in a similar manner to this method. (You can only directly put user controlable characters in 2 out of 3 locations (ie: no AO will give you a multiple of 3 bytes on the heap, AO will give you 2 more than a multiple of 3 bytes) with controllable characters, but when you count the null added by the netoprintf(), and use 0 as an option to a do or will, you can sometimes create valid chunks that point to locations you can control. I have only tested this method with a simulation, but it seems it would probably work with the telnetd as well. I will look into it when I have time.
