======================
Vulnerability details:
======================

The kernel driver cpoint.sys shipped with Panda Internet Security and Antivirus+
Firewall 2008 contains a vulnerability in the code that handles IOCTL requests. 
Exploitation of this vulnerability can result in:

1) local denial of service attacks (system crash due to a kernel panic), or

2) local execution of arbitrary code at the kernel level (complete system 
   compromise)

The issue can be triggered by sending a specially crafted IOCTL request.

No special user rights are necessary to exploit the vulnerability.


======================
Technical description:
======================

The IOCTL call 0xba002848 of the cpoint.sys kernel driver shipped with Panda 
Internet Security/Antivirus+Firewall 2008 accepts user supplied input that 
doesn't get validated enough. In consequence it is possible to cause an 
out-of-bound write in kernel memory.

Disassembly of cpoint.sys (Windows Vista 32bit version):

[...]

(1) Vulnerable IOCTL call
(2) IOCTL input size check
(3) The user supplied data is copied into esi
(4) + (5) Minor input data checks

>>From this point there are two different vulnerable code paths. Both will be 
described in the following:

Vulnerable code path 1:

[...]
.text:00012906                 lea     ecx, [esi+0Ch] <-- (6)
[...]
.text:00012909 loc_12909:
.text:00012909                 mov     edx, [ecx] <-- (7)
.text:0001290B                 mov     OVERWRITTEN_DATA[eax*4], edx <-- (8)
.text:00012912                 inc     eax
.text:00012913                 add     ecx, 4
.text:00012916                 cmp     eax, [esi+8] <-- (9)
.text:00012919                 jb      short loc_12909
[...]

(6) Some user controlled data is copied into ecx
(7) The user controlled data is copied into edx
(8) The user controlled data is copied (as dwords) at the memory location 
    OVERWRITTEN_DATA
(9) The size of the copied data (loop counter in eax) can be controlled by the 
    user

This leads to an out-of-bound write in kernel memory.

Vulnerable code path 2:

[...]
.text:0001291B loc_1291B:
.text:0001291B                 xor     eax, eax
.text:0001291D                 cmp     [esi+10Ch], eax <-- (10)
.text:00012923                 jbe     loc_129B4
[...]
.text:00012929                 lea     ecx, [esi+110h] <-- (11)
[...]
.text:0001292F loc_1292F:
.text:0001292F                 mov     edx, [ecx] <-- (12)
.text:00012931                 mov     OVERWRITTEN_DATA2[eax*4], edx <-- (13)
.text:00012938                 inc     eax
.text:00012939                 add     ecx, 4
.text:0001293C                 cmp     eax, [esi+10Ch] <-- (14)
.text:00012942                 jb      short loc_1292F
[...]

(10) Minor check of the user controlled data
(11) Some user controlled data is copied into ecx
(12) The user controlled data is copied into edx
(13) The user controlled data is copied (as dwords) at the memory location 
     OVERWRITTEN_DATA2
(14) The size of the copied data (loop counter in eax) can be controlled by the 
     user

This leads to an out-of-bound write in kernel memory.

In both cases it is possible to write an arbitrary amount of user controlled 
data into kernel memory. As the data that gets overwritten is in the data 
section of the cpoint.sys kernel driver it is possible to control adjacent data 
structures (e.g. some KEVENT structures). If these structures are overwritten 
with carefully crafted data it is possible to force the windows kernel into 
performing a memory corruption that leads to full control of the kernel 
execution flow.
