Vendor description:
-------------------
"The dbus-broker project is an implementation of a message bus as defined by
the D-Bus specification. Its aim is to provide high performance and
reliability, while keeping compatibility to the D-Bus reference implementation.
It is exclusively written for Linux systems, and makes use of many modern
features provided by recent linux kernel releases."

Source: https://github.com/bus1/dbus-broker


Business recommendation:
------------------------
The vendor provides a patch which should be installed immediately.


Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
1) Stack-Buffer Over-Read (CVE-2022-31212)
Dbus-Broker depends on c-uitl/c-shquote to parse DBus service's Exec line.
c-shquote contains a stack buffer over-read if a malicious Exec line is
supplied.

2) Null Pointer Dereference (CVE-2022-31213)
Multiple Null Pointer references can be found when supplying a malformed XML
config file.


Proof of concept:
-----------------
1) Stack-Buffer Over-Read (CVE-2022-31212)
Following harness was used to fuzz the function c_shquote_parse_argv() as
it is used in src/launch/launcher.c of dbus-broker.

------------------------------------------------------
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "c-shquote.h"

#define SIZE_65KB 66560

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
   char fuzz_buf[SIZE_65KB] = "";
   ssize_t fuzz_len = read(STDIN_FILENO, fuzz_buf, SIZE_65KB);
   char **out_argv;
   ssize_t out_argc;
   c_shquote_parse_argv(&out_argv, &out_argc, fuzz_buf, strlen(fuzz_buf));
   return 0;
}
----------------------------------------------------------

Passing \xff to the STDIN of the testharness will cause following crash:

----------------------------------------------------------

==21744==ABORTING
------------------------------------------------------

The error occurs in the functions  c_shquote_strnspn() and c_shquote_strncspn().
Both allocate a buffer like this:

bool buffer[UCHAR_MAX] = {};

UCHAR_MAX is defined in the C standard header limits.h and equals 255. Thus,
array indexes of 0-254 can be addressed.

However, the buffer will then be accessed like this:
buffer[(unsigned char)string[i]], where string is the commandline from STDIN
(or the EXEC line in case of dbus-broker services).
Passing \xff will thus read an out of bounds array element.


2) Null Pointer Dereference (CVE-2022-31213)
The dbus-broker config parser uses the expat library to parse XML files.

<limit name="max_pendingonment"/> is a valid XML line. Thus expat will parse
it correctly. As no value is supplied in the statement, the
limit_max_pendingonment parameter will contain a Null pointer. DBus-broker does
not validate the result and tries to dereference the field, causing a crash.
Multiple other XML edge case can be found that cause the expat library to
correctly return a Null pointer, but are not handled correctly by the
dbus-broker.

Including <limit name="max_pendingonment"/>  causes following error message:

Vulnerable / tested versions:
-----------------------------
The Git Master branch (dbus-broker-29) has been tested and found to be
vulnerable (tested at commit 727bee57cd3e3b5806eb8599abbdd49984b75732).

Furthermore, it also contains the vulnerable c-shquote library (tested
at commit 83ccc2893385fcca1424b188f0f6c45a62f2b38d).


Vendor contact timeline:
------------------------
2022-04-01: Contacting vendor email.
2022-04-04: Sending advisory via unencrypted email.
2022-04-19: Bugs are fixed. New version will be released 2022-04-20.
2022-05-10: dbus-broker-30 released.
2022-05-16: dbus-broker-31 released with further fixes.
2022-06-02: Release of security advisory.


Solution:
---------
Update to the latest version. The vendor provides an updated version v30.
v31 is available now which should be used as other introduced bugs have been
fixed there:

https://github.com/bus1/dbus-broker/releases/tag/v31


Workaround:
-----------
None
