> BACKGROUND
>
> While performing research paper for SANS GCIH practice I have
> found this issue and it seems to me enough critical to warn
> readers about this.
>
> DESCRIPTION
>
> Most Antivirus software can't detect Mutations of GDI+ exploit.
>
> ANALYSIS
>
> 1) Most Antivirus vendors issues virus definitions for known
> exploit code [1] witch uses \xFF\xFE\x00\x01 string for
> buffer overflow.
> >From the Snort rule [2] you can learn that there are 7 more variants
> to produce this buffer overflow in GDI+.
>
> So, by changing \xFE to one of this - \xE1, \xE2, \xED
> and\or by changing \x01 to \x00 this exploit will be
> UNDETECTED by many antiviruses (list attached).
>
> 2) While original exploit code use buffer overflow string
> near the BEGINNING of the image file (after \xFF\xE0 ,
> \xFF\xEC and \xFF\xEE markers), I was able to create image
> with buffer overflow string at the MIDDLE of the file.
>
> 3) By combining various strings from methods described under
> 1) and 2) and by placing them in different locations in the
> image file I was able to bypass various antivirus products.
>
>
> FIX
>
> 1) Patch vulnerable systems.
> 2) If your antivirus didn't detect these variants - block
> JPEG (xFFD8).

> 1) In the 1.jpg file the \xFE string was substituted to \xE1.
> WARNING ! THIS IS COMPILED PROOF OF CONCEPT
> FROM [1] THAT WILL CONNECT BACK TO
> VULNERABLE MACHINE TO 127.0.0.1 AT
> PORT 777 ( run: nc -l -p 777 ).
> 2) In the 2.jpg the buffer overflow string at offset x22F0
> (string that begins with \xFF\xED).
> THIS IS JUST AN IMAGE WITH BUFFER OVERFLOW.
