> > Summary:
> >
> > Wu-Ftpd contains a remotely exploitable heap
> > corruption bug.
> >
> > Impact:
> >
> > A remote attacker may execute arbitrary code on
> > the vulnerable server.
> >
> > Technical Description:
> >
> > Wu-Ftpd is an ftp server based on the BSD ftpd
> > that is maintained by
> > Washington University.
> >
> > Wu-Ftpd allows for clients to organize files for
> > ftp actions based on
> > "file globbing" patterns. File globbing is
> > also used by various
> > shells. The implementation of file globbing
> > included in Wu-Ftpd
> > contains a heap corruption vulnerability that may
> > allow for an attacker
> > to execute arbitrary code on a server remotely.
> >
> > During the processing of a globbing pattern, the
> > Wu-Ftpd implementation
> > creates a list of the files that match. The
> > memory where this data is
> > stored is on the heap, allocated using malloc().
> > The globbing function
> > simply returns a pointer to the list. It is
> > up to the calling
> > functions to free the allocated memory.
> >
> > If an error occurs processing the pattern, memory
> > will not be allocated
> > and a variable indicating this should be set.
> > The calling functions
> > must check the value of this variable before
> > attempting to use the
> > globbed filenames (and later freeing the memory).
> >
> > Under certain circumstances, the globbing function
> > does not set this
> > variable when an error occurs. As a result of
> > this, Wu-Ftpd will
> > eventually attempt to free uninitialized memory.
> >
> > If this region of memory contained
> > user-controllable data before the
> > free call, it may be possible to have an
> > arbitrary word in memory
> > overwritten with an arbitrary value. This can
> > lead to execution of
> > arbitrary code if function pointers or
> > return addresses are
> > overwritten.
> >
> > If anonymous FTP is not enabled, valid user
> > credentials are required to
> > exploit this vulnerability.
> >
> > This vulnerability was initially scheduled for
> > public release on
> > December 3, 2001. However, Red Hat has made
> > details public as of
> > November 27, 2001. As a result, we are forced to
> > warn other users of
> > the vulnerable product, so that they may take
> > appropriate actions.
> >
> > Attack Scenarios:
> >
> > To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must
> > have either valid
> > credentials required to log in as an FTP user, or
> > anonymous access must
> > be enabled.
> >
> > The attacker must ensure that a maliciously
> > constructed malloc header
> > containing the target address and it's replacement
> > value are in the
> > right location in the uninitialized part of the
> > heap. The attacker
> > must also place shellcode in server process
> > memory.
> >
> > The attacker must send an FTP command containing
> > a specific globbing
> > pattern that does not set the error variable.
> >
> > When the server attempts to free the memory used
> > to store the globbed
> > filenames, the target word in memory will be
> > overwritten.
> >
> > If an attacker overwrites a function pointer or
> > return address with a
> > pointer to the shellcode, it may be executed by
