===============
1) Introduction
===============


Extended Module Player (XMP) is a small command-line player for a lot
of good old MOD files.

---------------------------------------------
A] buffer-overflow in test_oxm / decrunch_oxm
---------------------------------------------

The functions which handle the OXM file format (not active in Windows
and Amiga) are vulnerable to a buffer-overflow caused by the bypassing
of the "ilen > 263" check due to the sign of ilen.
So setting ilen to a negative value will allow an attacker to overflow
the buf buffer and possibly executing malicious code.

from misc/oxm.c:

int test_oxm(FILE *f)
{
    int i, j;
    int hlen, npat, len, plen;
    int nins, nsmp, ilen;
    int slen[256];
    uint8 buf[1024];
    ...
        ilen = read32l(f);
        if (ilen > 263)
            return -1;
        fseek(f, -4, SEEK_CUR);
        fread(buf, ilen, 1, f);     /* instrument header */
        ...

The same problem is located in decrunch_oxm() which naturally is not so
important in this case since test_oxm() is called before it.


------------------------------
B] buffer-overflow in dtt_load
------------------------------

Another vulnerability is located in dtt_load() where the pofs and plen
arrays can be overflowed with arbitrary data.

from loaders/dtt_load.c:

static int dtt_load(struct xmp_context *ctx, FILE *f, const int start)
    ...
    uint32 pofs[256];
    uint8 plen[256];
    int sdata[64];
    ...
    m->xxh->pat = read32l(f);
    ...
    for (i = 0; i < m->xxh->pat; i++)
        pofs[i] = read32l(f);
    ...
