There exists a remotely exploitable buffer overflow in the mod_mylo module for
apache.
It is a relatively obscure MySQL logging module for Apache that appears not to
be in widespread use at present. However, it is present in FreeBSD ports, so
may affect FreeBSD slighly more than Linux systems.
Advisory + exploit attached.
Regards,
Carl

Security Vulnerability Advisory
________________________________________________________________________
Product: mod_mylo (Apache 1.3.x module)
Versions: <=3D 0.2.1
Author: =D8yvind Gr=F8nnesby
Homepage: http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~oyving/code/mod_mylo/
Platforms: Linux/BSD
Impact: Remote code execution
Advisory: CLIVITT-2003-5
Author: Carl Livitt (carllivitt at hush dot com)
Date: July 28, 2003
________________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Mod_mylo is an Apache module designed to log HTTP requests to a MySQL
database.
Insufficient bounds checking on a buffer in the logging section of the
code could allow a remote attacker to overwrite saved data on the stack
and execute commands under the privileges of the Apache daemon user,
typically 'www'.
This software is so unpopular it probably only affects a handful of
users. The main category of people affected will probably be those that
have FreeBSD and mod_mylo installed from the ports collection.
________________________________________________________________________
Problem Details:
In the main logging function, mylo_log(), there is a buffer on the
stack called reqstr:
char query[MYLO_MAXQLEN], reqstr[MYLO_MAXQLEN];
This is poulated by a call to mysql_real_escape_string():
mysql_real_escape_string(connection, reqstr, r->the_request,
strlen(r->the_request));
The upper length of data to be placed into reqstr[] is determined by
the length of the HTTP request, not the length of the reqstr[] buffer.
Thus, it is possible to construct a large HTTP request containing some
shellcode and a malicious RET address, overwrite the saved EIP and
execute arbitrary machine code in the context of the Apache user.
A exploit string would generally be sent to port 80 of the target box
and would look like this:
GET AAAAAAA(4104 A's[linux] / 4096 A's[freeBSD])RRRRPPPP
Where RRRR is a malicious EIP and PPPP is the address of a pointer
to an Apache request_rec structure that _must_ be valid in order for
the exploit to succeed. The pointer needs to be reconstructed because
overwriting EIP sets the least significat 8-bits of the pointer to
NULL. The address of this pointer can be brute-forced without much
trouble.
