Title:  Local privilege escalation via CDE sdtcm_convert
   Application: Common Desktop Environment 1.6 and earlier
     Platforms:  Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (Update 11) and earlier
    Other platforms are potentially affected (see below)
   Description:  A local attacker can gain root privileges by exploiting a
    buffer overflow in CDE sdtcm_convert

1. Abstract.

A buffer overflow in the _SanityCheck() function in the Common Desktop
Environment version distributed with Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (Update 11) and
earlier allows local users to gain root privileges via a long calendar name or
calendar owner passed to sdtcm_convert in a malicious calendar file.

The open source version of CDE (based on the CDE 2.x codebase) is not affected,
because it does not ship the vulnerable program.

2. Example Attack Session.

bash-3.2$ cat /etc/release
                    Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 s10x_u11wos_24a X86

# id

3. Affected Platforms.

All platforms shipping the Common Desktop Environment based on the CDE 1.x
codebase are potentially affected. This includes:

* Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (Update 11) and earlier [default installation]

The open source version of CDE (based on the CDE 2.x codebase) is not affected,
because it does not ship the vulnerable program.

4. Fix.

Oracle has assigned the tracking# S1239395 and has released a fix for all
affected and supported versions of Solaris in the Critical Patch Update (CPU)
of April 2020.

As a workaround, it is also possible to remove the setuid bit from the
vulnerable executable as follows (note that this might prevent it from working
properly):

bash-3.2# chmod -s /usr/dt/bin/sdtcm_convert

Please note that during the audit many other potentially exploitable bugs have
surfaced in sdtcm_convert and in the Common Desktop Environment in general.
Therefore, removing the setuid bit from all CDE binaries is recommended,
regardless of patches released by vendors.

5. Proof of Concept.

An exploit for Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (Update 11) Intel has been developed as a
proof of concept. It can be downloaded from:

/*
 * raptor_sdtcm_conv.c - CDE sdtcm_convert LPE for Solaris/Intel
 * Copyright (c) 2019-2020 Marco Ivaldi <raptor@0xdeadbeef.info>
 *
 * A buffer overflow in the _SanityCheck() function in the Common Desktop
 * Environment version distributed with Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (Update 11) and
 * earlier allows local users to gain root privileges via a long calendar name
 * or calendar owner passed to sdtcm_convert in a malicious calendar file
 * (CVE-2020-2944).
 *
 * The open source version of CDE (based on the CDE 2.x codebase) is not
 * affected, because it does not ship the vulnerable binary.
 *
 * "CDE, the gift that keeps on giving" -- @0xdea
 * "Feels more like a curse you can't break from this side." -- @alanc
 *
 * This exploit uses the ret-into-ld.so technique to bypass the non-exec stack
 * protection. In case troubles arise with NULL-bytes inside the ld.so.1 memory
 * space, try returning to sprintf() instead of strcpy().
 *
 * I haven't written a Solaris/SPARC version because I don't have a SPARC box
 * on which Solaris 10 can run. If anybody is kind enough to give me access to
 * such a box, I'd be happy to port my exploit to Solaris/SPARC as well.
 *
 * Usage:
 * $ gcc raptor_sdtcm_conv.c -o raptor_sdtcm_conv -Wall
 * $ ./raptor_sdtcm_conv
 * [...]
 * Do you want to correct it? (Y/N) [Y] n
 * # id
 * uid=0(root) gid=1(other) egid=12(daemon)
 * #
 *
 * This should work with any common configuration on the first try. To
 * re-enable rpc.cmsd, clear its service maintenance status by running the
 * following commands as root:
 * # /usr/sbin/svcadm clear cde-calendar-manager
 * # /usr/bin/svcs -a | grep calendar
 * online         13:16:54 svc:/network/rpc/cde-calendar-manager:default
 *
 * Tested on:
 * SunOS 5.10 Generic_147148-26 i86pc i386 i86pc (Solaris 10 1/13)
 * [previous Solaris versions are also likely vulnerable]
