- PAM
- openssh (modified by FreeBSD/DragonflyBSD Team)
- sudo
- opiesu
- popper
- Probably much more...

PoC:

--- 0.Description ---
OPIE is a freely redistributable kit that will drop into most *IX systems and replaces
your login and FTP daemon with versions that use OTP for user authentication. It also
includes an OTP generator and a library to make it easy to add OTP authentication to
existing clients and servers.


--- 1. OPIE Authentication System Off-by one ---
Libopie allows REMOTE and LOCAL attackers to off-by-one attack (on the stack).
Let's look in the code:

"/src/contrib/opie/opie.h"
/* Maximum length of a principal (read: user name) */
#define OPIE_PRINCIPAL_MAX 32

"./src/contrib/opie/libopie/readrec.c"
int __opiereadrec FUNCTION((opie), struct opie *opie)
{
  ...
  ...
  {
    char *c, principal[OPIE_PRINCIPAL_MAX];
    int i;

    if (c = strchr(opie->opie_principal, ':'))
      *c = 0;
[1] if (strlen(opie->opie_principal) > OPIE_PRINCIPAL_MAX)
[2]   (opie->opie_principal)[OPIE_PRINCIPAL_MAX] = 0;

[3] strcpy(principal, opie->opie_principal);
    ...
    ...
  }
  ...
  ...
ret:
  if (f)
    fclose(f);
  return rval;
}


This function at [1] check the length of the variable 'opie->opie_principal'
which is full user controled. If this length is bigger than OPIE_PRINCIPAL_MAX
- 32 bytes, program will write at this position NULL byte. In fact the string
will be 32 bytes long.
Vulnerability exists at line [3]. Function strcpy() copy user controled variable
which can be maximum 32 bytes long, to the local bufor 'principal' which is 32
bytes long too. Here is off-by-one bug because function strcpy() after copied 32
bytes alwyas ADD NULL byte to the and of string. In fact it will be at the
position *(principal+32) which is out of buffer.
A possible way to exploit this vulnerability:

"./src/contrib/opie/libopie/lookup.c"
int opielookup FUNCTION((opie, principal), struct opie *opie AND char *principal)
{
  int i;

  memset(opie, 0, sizeof(struct opie));
  opie->opie_principal = principal;

  if (i = __opiereadrec(opie))              <=== our call ;)
    return i;

  return (opie->opie_flags & __OPIE_FLAGS_RW) ? 0 : 2;
}


a deeper analyzis of the code shows:

"./src/contrib/opie/libopie/challenge.c"
int opiechallenge FUNCTION((mp, name, ss), struct opie *mp AND char *name AND char *ss)
{
  int rval = -1;

  rval = opielookup(mp, name);

  ...
  ...

  return rval;
}

This function is really intereting because it is responsible for authentication so this
vulnerability can be in the pre-auth phase. We can found many softwares which use this function
for authorization (for example default ftp daemon in FreeBSD) ;)

Another interesting call we can find here:

"./src/contrib/opie/libopie/writerec.c"
int __opiewriterec FUNCTION((opie), struct opie *opie)
{
  char buf[17], buf2[64];
  time_t now;
  FILE *f, *f2 = NULL;
  int i = 0;
  char *c;

  time(&now);
  if (strftime(buf2, sizeof(buf2), " %b %d,%Y %T", localtime(&now)) < 1)
    return -1;

  if (!(opie->opie_flags & __OPIE_FLAGS_READ)) {
    struct opie opie2;
    i = opielookup(&opie2, opie->opie_principal);      <========== our call :)
    ...
  }
  ...
  ...
}

and this function is used in many places:
"./src/contrib/opie/libopie/passwd.c"    <=== in function opiepasswd()
"./src/contrib/opie/libopie/verify.c"    <=== in function opieverify() - two times ;)

... so we have got many entry points ;) But we are going to test calls to function
opiechallenge(). Pre-auth vulnerability sounds impressive ;) At first let's test default
FTP daemon for FreeBSD 8.0 ...


--- 2. FreeBSD 8.0 ftpd remote off-by one ---
Authentication module for FTP server in FreeBSD 8 module was modified. By default it
uses OPIE library. Let`s see

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/src/libexec/ftpd/ftpd.c?rev=1.214.2.1.2.1;content-type=text%2Fplain

...

	if (opiechallenge(&opiedata, name, opieprompt) == 0) {
		pwok = (pw != NULL) &&
		       opieaccessfile(remotehost) &&
		       opiealways(pw->pw_dir);
		reply(331, "Response to %s %s for %s.",
		      opieprompt, pwok ? "requested" : "required", name);
	} else {
		pwok = 1;
		reply(331, "Password required for %s.", name);
	}
	askpasswd = 1;
...


this code has been added in line 8. 7.3 is not affected!

Variable 'name' is user name, defined in in auth

"USER AAAA"

name=AAAA

If we use more that 31 chars for username, ftpd will crash. The problem will
be casued by the off-by-one bug in libopie. FreeBSD 8.0 compile most of its binaries
with -fstack-protector-all flag by default so the FTP server will be killed by SSP
with an information about attack:

"stack overflow detected"

The problematic part of libopie is called by the FTP server via this line:

opiechallenge(&opiedata, name, opieprompt)


PoC0:

Escape character is '^]'.
220 127.cx FTP server (Version 6.00LS) ready.
