Kaspersky Antivirus ExeCryptor parsing memory corruption #525

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Fuzzing packed executables found the attached crash, it might be usable as an 
information leak as part of another bug, so filing as a low-risk bug. If I had 
to guess, I would say this is the ExeCryptor unpacker.

(83c.fc0): Access violation - code c0000005 (first chance)
First chance exceptions are reported before any exception handling.
This exception may be expected and handled.

15cc7e73 803c03e9        cmp     byte ptr [ebx+eax],0E9h    ds:002b:0b650000=??

What is that code doing?

0:021> u
15cc7e73 803c03e9        cmp     byte ptr [ebx+eax],0E9h
15cc7e77 0f8596000000    jne     15cc7f13
15cc7e7d 8b540301        mov     edx,dword ptr [ebx+eax+1]
15cc7e81 8d441a05        lea     eax,[edx+ebx+5]
15cc7e85 33c9            xor     ecx,ecx
15cc7e87 3d00100000      cmp     eax,1000h
15cc7e8c 0f9cc1          setl    cl
15cc7e8f 33d2            xor     edx,edx

That edx+ebx+5 gives it away, it's searching for a jmp opcode and trying to 
pull out the branch target.

Why did it get lost? I'll put a breakpoint there and see where it goes wrong:

0:021> bp @eip
0:021> .restart
Breakpoint 0 hit
eax=0584f00c ebx=00000000 ecx=0497eb4c edx=00000000 esi=05a1005c edi=00000000

15cc7e73 803c03e9        cmp     byte ptr [ebx+eax],0E9h    ds:002b:0584f00c=00

That looks fine, eax is the start of the buffer to search, and ebx is the index 
to look for a jmp opcode.

Ah, that's the bug, it's wrapping past zero and never exiting. The code is 
probably doing:

do {
 if (ptr[index] != JMP_OPCODE)
   index -= SIZEOF_JMP;
} while (index != 0);

That's a bug, because if index < SIZEOF_JMP, it will wrap and never exit. I 
would think it should decrement by 1 not sizeof(jmp) anyway, because jmps do 
not have to be aligned, but  I don't know anything about ExeCryptor - maybe it 
makes sense.

This bug is subject to a 90 day disclosure deadline. If 90 days elapse
without a broadly available patch, then the bug report will automatically
become visible to the public.
