Microsoft Office 2007: type confusion related to OLESSDirectyEntry.CreateTime #465

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The following crash was observed in Microsoft Office 2007 with Microsoft Office 
File Validation Add-In disabled and Application Verifier enabled for testing 
and reproduction. This bug did not reproduce in Office 2010 or 2013. 

Attached files:
Original File: 1516065514_orig.xls
Crashing File: 1516065514_crash.xls
Minimized Crashing File: 1516065514_min.xls

The minimized crashing file shows a one bit deltas from the original file at 
offset 0x49E8. OffVis reports this to be the CreateTime field of an 
OLESSDirectoryEntry structure.

File Versions:
Excel.exe: 12.0.6718.5000
MSO.dll: 12.0.6721.5000

Observed Crash:

When run without Application Verifier enabled the following crash occurs:
eax=30272d58 ebx=03b49330 ecx=03b49144 edx=03a64d44 esi=30f6dca0 edi=03a64d40

In this crash case eip was corrupted to 0xfffffffc. Tracing through 
sub_3028F4B4 we see something along the lines of:
  x = *dword_30F5F9BC + 0x144;  // x=0x30272d58 
  fptr = x + x[0x14]; // x[0x14] == 0 
  fptr(); // calling pointer at 0x30272d58 = 0xfffffffc

It looks as though the global variable at 30f5f9bc was used with incorrect type 
information or otherwise corrupted. Running the same poc file again but with 
Application Verifier enabled gets us closer to the root of the issue with the 
following crash observed:

We can see here that eax is being indexed at an offset of 0x3f0. However, if we 
look at the actual allocation for the chunk eax is pointed to we see that the 
allocation size was only 0x1b0.

This poc behaves like a type confusion or memory corruption issue in areas not 
protected by application verifier. The fact the eip was corrupted indicates a 
high likelihood for exploitation. 

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.
