Advantech AdamView Buffer Overflow


1. *Advisory Information*

Title: Advantech AdamView Buffer Overflow
Advisory ID: CORE-2014-0008
Advisory URL:
http://www.coresecurity.com/advisories/advantech-adamView-buffer-overflow
Date published: 2014-11-19
Date of last update: 2014-11-19
Vendors contacted: Advantech
Release mode: User release


2. *Vulnerability Information*

Class: Buffer overflow [CWE-119]
Impact: Code execution
Remotely Exploitable: No
Locally Exploitable: Yes
CVE Name: CVE-2014-8386


3. *Vulnerability Description*

    Advantech AdamView [1] is a HMI Software for Data Acquisition
software package for human-machine interfaces HMI, and supervisory
control and data acquisition SCADA.

    Advantech AdamView has to two different fields vulnerable to buffer
overflow attacks, which can be exploited by attackers in order to
execute arbitrary code by running files with the '.gni' extension that
is assosiated with the AdamView software.

  
4. *Vulnerable packages*

   . Advantech AdamView V4.3
   . Other versions are probably affected too, but they were not checked.

5. *Vendor Information, Solutions and Workarounds*

    The vendor informed us that the product is no longer supported and
therefore no fix or update is going to be released.
       
    Given that this is a client-side vulnerability, affected users
should avoid opening untrusted '.gni' files. Core Security also
recommends those affected use third party software such as Sentinel [3]
or EMET [2] that could help to prevent the exploitation of affected
systems to some extent.

   
6. *Credits*

    This vulnerability was discovered and researched by Daniel Kazimirow
and Fernando Paez from Core Security Exploit Writers Team. The
publication of this advisory was coordinated by Joaquín Rodríguez Varela
from Core Advisories Team.

 

7. *Technical Description / Proof of Concept Code*

    This vulnerability is caused by a stack buffer overflow when parsing
the display properties parameter. A malicious third party could trigger
execution of arbitrary code within the context of the application, or
otherwise crash the whole application.
       
    Below are shown the vulnerable fields, the debug information, and
the stack state after being overwritten.
