# Exploit Title: GOM Player 2.2.53.5169 - SEH Buffer Overflow (.reg)
# Date: 11-26-2013
# Exploit Author: Mike Czumak (T_v3rn1x) -- @SecuritySift
# Vulnerable Software/Version: GOM Player 2.2.53.5169
# Vendor Site: http://player.gomlab.com/eng/
# Vulnerable Software Link: http://www.oldapps.com/gom_player.php?old_gom_player=12874
# Tested On: Windows XP SP3 (Only crashes Win 7 b/c no suitable seh modules or jmp/call regs found)
# Details:
# -- GOM Player uses registry keys to set various attributes including the equalizer presets
# -- These registry values can be found here: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GRETECH\GomPlayer\OPTION
# -- It loads these values into memory without proper bounds checks which enables the exploit
# -- Modification of these registry values requires binary input (a line feed).  
# -- To accomplish this via the reg file I used 2 char hex values separated by a comma. 
# -- For example, instead of \x41\x41 it's 41,41.  This also has an added benefit of avoiding the 
# -- Unicode encoding that occurs if ascii input is used 
# To Exploit:
# -- 1) Run created .reg file and 2) Open GOM Player 
# -- Note: GOM Player must have been run at least once on the target machine before
# -- running the .reg file or the necessary registry entries will not exist
# -- Once the registry has been modified, this exploit will be persistent and execute every time
# -- GOM player is run
# Timeline:
# -- 27 Nov: Vuln discovered, vendor contacted; vuln acknowledged, fix planned for next release
# -- 28 Nov: Contacted Mitre for CVE coord; informed that despite past precedent (CVE 2013-6356), a 
# --         vuln that requires a user to open/run a file such as .reg should not be assigned a CVE
# -- 09 Dec: Vendor goes live w/ updated version containing fix; public disclosure
