CWE-119 |
Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data. |

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.

The external method 0x206 of IGAccelGLContext is gst_configure. This method takes an arbitrary sized input structure
(passed in rsi) but doesn't check the size of that structure (passed in rcx.)

here we can see that the method is reading a dword at offset 0x800 of the input struct and comparing that value to 0x200.
This method is reached via MIG and if we call userspace IOConnectCallMethod with a small input struct then the mach
message is actually packed such that only the input struct size we send actually gets sent; therefore this is an OOB read.
The first interesting conseqeuence of this is that if the value read is > 0x200 then it gets logged to /var/log/system.log
which we can read from userspace allowing us to disclose some kernel memory.
However, we can do more:
r15 is passed to IntelAccelerator::gstqConfigure:
mov rsi, r15
call __ZN16IntelAccelerator13gstqConfigureEP19GstConfigurationRec
where we reach the following code:
__text:000000000001DC29 mov edx, [rsi+800h]
__text:000000000001DC2F shl rdx, 2 ; size_t
__text:000000000001DC33 lea rdi, _gstCustomCounterConfigPair ; void *
__text:000000000001DC3A call _memcpy
here the value at +0x800 is read again and used as the size for a memcpy assuming that it has already been verified, but
since it's outside the bounds of the allocation this is actually a toctou bug since with some heap manipulation we can
change that value to be > 0x200 allowing us to overflow the _gstCustomCounterConfigPair buffer.
Since the struct input comes from a mach message this heap grooming shouldn't be that difficult.
