Subject: [INetCop Security Advisory] Remote Multiple Buffer Overflow
 vulnerability in passlogd sniffer.


	========================================
	INetCop Security Advisory #2003-0x82-015
	========================================


* Title: Remote Multiple Buffer Overflow vulnerability in passlogd sniffer.


0x01. Description


About:
passlogd(passive syslog capture daemon) is a purpose-built sniffer for capturing
syslog messages in transit. This allows for backup logging to be performed on
a machine with no open ports.

This program is introduced in securityfocus: http://www.securityfocus.com/tools/2076

Vulnerability can presume as following.
There is sl_parse() function to 33 lines of 'passlogd-0.1d/parse.c' code.

    __
    33  void sl_parse(char *user, struct pcap_pkthdr *pkthdr, u_char *pkt)
    34  {
        ...
    42    char level[5];
    43    char message[1024];
    44    char buffer[4096];
        ...
    77    while(pkt[i] != '>'){
    78      level[j] = pkt[i]; // First, buffer overflow happens.
    79      i++;
    80      j++;
    81    }
    82    i++;
        ...
    87    while(pkt[i] != '\n' && pkt[i] != '\r' && i < (pkthdr->caplen - 1)){
    88          if(debug)
    89                  printf("at byte %d of %d\n", i, pkthdr->caplen - 1);
    90      message[z] = pkt[i]; // Second, buffer overflow happens.
    91      i++;
    92      z++;
    93    }
        ...
   103    /* built the logstring */
   104    if(dflag){
   105      sprintf(buffer, "%s %s\n", srcip, message); // Very dangerous.
   106    }
   107    else {
   108      sprintf(buffer, "%s to %s: <%s> %s\n", srcip, dstip, level, message) // Similarly, is dangerous.
;
   109    }
        ... /* Role of original is like this. */
   123      syslev = atoi(level);
   124      openlog("passlogd", 0, LOG_DAEMON);
   125      syslog(syslev, "%s", buffer);
    --

Visual point that change flowing of this program, happen after overwrited stack variables.
Of course, frame pointer overrun exists together.
