CVE-2015-7083 : 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://code.google.com/p/google-security-research/issues/detail?id=543 NKE control sockets are documented here: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Conceptual/NKEConceptual/control/control.html By default there are actually a bunch of these providers; they are however all only accessible to root. Nevertheless, on iOS and now (thanks to SIP) OS X this is a real security boundary. necp control sockets are implemented in necp.c. The messages themselves consist of a simple header followed by type-length-value entries. The type field is a single byte and the length is a size_t (ie 8 bytes.) by sending a packed with an id of NECP_PACKET_TYPE_POLICY_ADD we can reach the following loop: // Read policy conditions for (cursor = necp_packet_find_tlv(packet, offset, NECP_TLV_POLICY_CONDITION, &error, 0); cursor >= 0; cursor = necp_packet_find_tlv(packet, cursor, NECP_TLV_POLICY_CONDITION, &error, 1)) { size_t condition_size = 0; necp_packet_get_tlv_at_offset(packet, cursor, 0, NULL, &condition_size); if (condition_size > 0) { conditions_array_size += (sizeof(u_int8_t) + sizeof(size_t) + condition_size); } } The necp_packet_{find|get}_* functions cope gracefully if the final tlv is waaay bigger than the actual message (like 2^64-1 ;) ) This means that we can overflow conditions_array_size to anything we want very easily. In this PoC the packet contains three policy conditions: one of length 1; one of length 1024 and one of length 2^64-1051; later conditions_array_size is used as the size of a memory allocation: MALLOC(conditions_array, u_int8_t *, conditions_array_size, M_NECP, M_WAITOK); There is then a memory copying loop operating on the undersized array: conditions_array_cursor = 0; for (cursor = necp_packet_find_tlv(packet, offset, NECP_TLV_POLICY_CONDITION, &error, 0); cursor >= 0; cursor = necp_packet_find_tlv(packet, cursor, NECP_TLV_POLICY_CONDITION, &error, 1)) { u_int8_t condition_type = NECP_TLV_POLICY_CONDITION; size_t condition_size = 0; necp_packet_get_tlv_at_offset(packet, cursor, 0, NULL, &condition_size); if (condition_size > 0 && condition_size <= (conditions_array_size - conditions_array_cursor)) { <-- (a) // Add type memcpy((conditions_array + conditions_array_cursor), &condition_type, sizeof(condition_type)); conditions_array_cursor += sizeof(condition_type); // Add length memcpy((conditions_array + conditions_array_cursor), &condition_size, sizeof(condition_size)); conditions_array_cursor += sizeof(condition_size); // Add value necp_packet_get_tlv_at_offset(packet, cursor, condition_size, (conditions_array + conditions_array_cursor), NULL); <-- (b) There is actually an extra check at (a); this is why we need the first policy_condition of size one (so that the second time through the loop (conditions_array_size[1] - conditions_array_cursor[9]) will underflow allowing us to reach the necp_packet_get_tlv_at_offset call which will then copy the second 1024 byte policy. By contstructing the policy like this we can choose both the allocation size and the overflow amount, a nice primitive for an iOS kernel exploit :) this will crash in weird ways due to the rather small overflow; you can mess with the PoC to make it crash more obviously! But just run this PoC a bunch of times and you'll crash :) Tested on MacBookAir 5,2 w/ OS X 10.10.5 (14F27) */ // ianbeer /* iOS and OS X kernel code execution due to integer overflow in NECP system control socket packet parsing NKE control sockets are documented here: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Conceptual/NKEConceptual/control/control.html By default there are actually a bunch of these providers; they are however all only accessible to root.
