Novell iManager Multiple Vulnerabilities
1. *Advisory Information*
Title: Novell iManager Multiple Vulnerabilities
Advisory Id: CORE-2010-0316
Advisory URL:
[http://www.coresecurity.com/content/novell-imanager-buffer-overflow-off-by-one-vulnerabilities]
Date published: 2010-06-23
Date of last update: 2010-06-23
Vendors contacted: Novell
Release mode: User release
2. *Vulnerability Information*
Class: Stack-based buffer overflow [CWE-119], Off-by-one error [CWE-193]
Impact: Code execution, Denial of service
Remotely Exploitable: Yes
Locally Exploitable: No
CVE Name: CVE-2010-1929, CVE-2010-1930
Bugtraq ID: 40480, 40485
3. *Vulnerability Description*
Novell iManager is a Web-based administration console that provides
customized secure access to network administration utilities and
content from any location in the world. With iManager you can manage
Novell Open Enterprise Server, Novell Identity Manager, Novell
eDirectory and many other Novell and third-party services from a web
browser. Novell iManager is prone to a stack-based buffer overflow
vulnerability that can be exploited by authenticated users to execute
arbitrary code, and to an off-by-one error that can be abused by
remote, unauthenticated attackers to cause a Denial of Service to the
application.
4. *Vulnerable packages*
. Novell iManager 2.7
. Novell iManager 2.7.3
. Novell iManager 2.7.3 FTF2
. Older versions are probably affected too, but they were not checked.
5. *Non-vulnerable packages*
. Novell iManager 2.7.3 ftf4
. Novell iManager 2.7.4
6. *Vendor Information, Solutions and Workarounds*
Novell has a planned release of iManager 2.7.4 in August 2010; this
release should fix these issues. The Novell team notifies they will
provide patches for the current vulnerable versions with the 2.7.3
ftf4 release before August, but this release was not confirmed yet
(see the timeline for more details). In the meantime, users can
mitigate these flaws by applying these countermeasures:
1. For [CVE-2010-1929 | 40480], establish a Web Application
Firewall rule for limiting the length of the parameters
'EnteredClassID' and 'NewClassName' in POST requests to the URI
'/nps/servlet/webacc/'.
2. For [CVE-2010-1930 | 40485], establish a Web Application
Firewall rule for limiting the length of the parameter 'Tree' in POST
requests to the URI '/nps/servlet/webacc/'.
Similar rules can also be established in the Apache webserver of the
iManager installation in order to mitigate these flaws.
7. *Credits*
This vulnerability was discovered and researched by Francisco Falcon
from Core Security Technologies.
8. *Technical Description / Proof of Concept Code*
8.1. *Introduction*
Novell iManager [1] is a Web-based administration console that
provides customized secure access to network administration utilities
and content from any location in the world. With iManager you can
manage Novell Open Enterprise Server, Novell Identity Manager, Novell
eDirectory and many other Novell and third-party services from a web
browser. Novell iManager is prone to a stack-based buffer overflow
vulnerability that can be exploited by authenticated users to execute
arbitrary code, and to an off-by-one error that can be abused by
remote, unauthenticated attackers to cause a Denial of Service to the
application. These two vulnerabilities are described below.
8.2. *Stack-based Buffer Overflow*
[CVE-2010-1929 | 40480] Novell iManager provides a feature to create
classes, under the 'Schema' menu. The class name is intended to have a
maximum length of 32 characters. This limitation is enforced on the
client side by setting a 'maxlength' property with a value of 32 in
the proper form field, but no verification is performed on the server
side to ensure that the user-defined class name is, at most, 32
characters long. By tampering the POST request that sends the class
name when creating a new class, an authenticated user can define an
overly long class name that will cause a stack-based buffer overflow
on the iManager web server, making it possible for the attacker to
overwrite return addresses and Structured Exception Handlers, allowing
the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the current
user (in the case of iManager Workstation) or with SYSTEM privileges
(in the case of iManager Server).
On the server side, the creation of a new class is handled by the
'jclient._Java_novell_jclient_JClient_defineClass () 20' function, in the
'jclient.dll' module of the iManager Tomcat web server. This function
in turn invokes a subroutine that copies the user-defined class name
to a fixed-size buffer in the stack, without checking its length. The
following disassembled code of the Novell iManager Tomcat web server
illustrates the vulnerability.
/-----
[jvm.dll + 0x1055CC]
6D9B55CC |. 8B7D 18 MOV EDI,DWORD PTR
SS:[EBP+18] ; edi = destination buffer in the stack
6D9B55CF |. 83E1 3F AND ECX,3F
6D9B55D2 |. D3E0 SHL EAX,CL
6D9B55D4 |. 8D7472 0C LEA ESI,DWORD PTR
DS:[EDX+ESI*2+C] ; esi = pointer to class name
6D9B55D8 |. 8BC8 MOV
ECX,EAX ; ecx = length of class name
6D9B55DA |. 8BD1 MOV EDX,ECX
6D9B55DC |. C1E9 02 SHR ECX,2
6D9B55DF |. F3:A5 REP MOVS DWORD PTR ES:[EDI],DWORD PTR
DS:[ESI] ; *BUFFER OVERFLOW*
- -----/
8.3. *Off By One Error (DoS)*
[CVE-2010-1930 | 40485] There is an off-by-one error in the code that
handles the login process that can be abused by remote,
unauthenticated users to crash the iManager web server, thus denying
the service to legitimate users.
The three input fields in the login page of iManager have defined a
'maxlength' property with a value of 256 to limit the number of
characters that can be entered in each field. However, if a login
request is sent to the web server having a 'TREE' field with a length
of 256 characters, the iManager Tomcat web server will crash,
rendering the application unavailable.
The following Python script is a proof of concept of the
vulnerability, and will crash the Novell iManager instance specified
via command-line arguments:

9. *Report Timeline*
. 2010-04-08:
Core Security Technologies notifies the iManager team of the
vulnerability and announces its initial plan to publish the advisory
on May 3rd, 2010.
. 2010-04-09:
The iManager team asks Core for a technical description of the
vulnerability.
. 2010-04-09:
Technical details are sent to iManager team by Core. No reply received.
. 2010-04-14:
Technical details are re-sent to iManager team. Core asks the vendor
to confirm the reception of the technical report. No reply received.
. 2010-04-20:
Core asks the vendor to confirm the reception of the technical report.
No reply received.
. 2010-04-29:
Core notifies the lack of an answer from the iManager team in the last
3 weeks. Core also requests a status update and notifies the advisory
publication has been re-scheduled to May 17th.
. 2010-04-30:
iManager team notifies the Service Request 10614363428 has been opened
to track this issue.
. 2010-04-30:
iManager team notifies the PoC script included in the advisory against
iManager 2.7.3 has been unable to cause iManager to crash.
. 2010-04-30:
Core notifies the original PoC was tested against the Workstation
version of Novell iManager (it uses plain HTTP). The Server version
(used by vendor) uses HTTPS. Core sends a new PoC which was tested on
both the Workstation and Server versions of iManger.
. 2010-05-07:
iManager team notifies they were able to duplicate the PoC against the
Windows version of iManager but, they were unable to duplicate it
against Linux versions. The vendor also notifies they have a planned
release of iManager 2.7.4 in August and asks Core if that timeframe is
acceptable.
. 2010-05-13:
Core asks the vendor if they are going to release a fix/patch for the
already vulnerable users and recommends doing so before the next
release of iManager, Aug 2010. No reply received.
. 2010-05-17:
Core asks for a status update about this issue. Core also notifies
Novell mentioned their team had been able to reproduce the PoC of the
DoS vulnerability but Core reported 2 vulnerabilities:
1. Remote Denial of Service,
2. Stack-based buffer overflow (exploitable when a user sends a
long class name).
There was no information reported about the 2nd vulnerability.
. 2010-05-18:
iManager team asks when Core is going to disclose the vulnerabilities
and if that time is flexible.
. 2010-05-20:
Core notifies the proposed release date was already missed
(2010-May-17), and the advisory is re-scheduled to May 31st. Core also
notifies this release date is flexible but it depends on Novell
timeline and further actions. In order to change this date Core asks
for the information required in previous emails:
1. Core asks if iManager team could reproduce both vulnerabilities.
2. Core asks if they are going to release patches/fixes for both
vulnerabilities before the release of the new version of iManager
(iManager 2.7.4 scheduled for August 2010)
3. Core asks if they are going to release a security bulletin for
their customers.
Core also notifies that if the iManager team does not mean to release
patches and/or a security bulletin then, there is not a good reason to
postpone the advisory publication till Aug 2010.
. 2010-05-27:
Core notifies the advisory is going to be released next Monday 31st
and that this date can be re-scheduled to a near future if iManager
team sends the information requested in previous emails. Core asks
Novell to re-establish the contact ASAP in order to coordinate the
advisory publication.
. 2010-06-02:
Paula Gephart from the iManager team notifies she was out of town and
the email's vacation rule has not worked for some reason. The iManager
team also notifies that they would like to coordinate a release and
they will re-establish the contact as soon as they can find an
acceptable release mechanism.
. 2010-06-02:
Core notifies that, given the 2nd publication deadline for the
advisory has already passed and the lack of an answer from the
iManager team to the questions asked in the email sent in
[2010-05-20], it is best (according to the Core's assessment on how to
help users to reduce risk) to inform the vulnerable users about their
risk and provide whatever mitigation or workarounds than to postpone
disclosure to an uncertain future date. Core also notifies the
advisory has already entered within the publication system and it
would be hard to stop it, but it can be done if the iManager team
provides the answers requested in the previous emails. Core notifies
that will be waiting for this information until the end of the day and
this deadline should be considered as final. No reply received.
. 2010-06-02:
The advisory CORE-2010-0316 is published.
. 2010-06-02:
The iManager team notifies both bugs have been reproduced and they are
going to develop fixes for both issues. The iMananger team also
notifies it has not decided if they are going to issue patches for the
vulnerable versions of iManager currently in use or will just roll out
the fixes in the upcoming release of a new iManager version.
. 2010-06-02:
Core removes the advisory from its website and notifies that it was
published for about 20 minutes. Core also notifies there will be a
meeting of the Core Advisories Team in order to evaluate this case
tomorrow (Thursday 3th) 19.30 GMT. If the iManager team does not mean
to release patches then, there is not a good reason to postpone the
advisory publication till Aug 2010.
. 2010-06-03:
The iManager team notifies the plan to release a 2.7.3 ftf4 to fix
these 2 issues and another issue. iManager 2.7.3 ftf4 would be
released before August, but there is no date yet.
. 2010-06-03:
Core agrees to postpone the advisory publication waiting for the 2.7.3
ftf4 release. The advisory is re-scheduled for publication to the
Monday 21th June, 2010. Core notifies this date can be moved if the
iManager team need it, but the iManager team should provide a clear
report about the progress of the fixing process in order to request
moving the release date.
. 2010-06-15:
Core requests a status update to the iManager team.
. 2010-06-17:
Core requests a status update to the iManager team and notifies the
advisory will be released next Monday as planned.
. 2010-06-18:
The iManager team notifies they are waiting on a response from another
Novell product that ships with iManager, to make sure they will also
be able to consume the new version of iManager and release before
August. The iManager team also notifies they will contact Core with
the timeline today.
. 2010-06-23:
The advisory CORE-2010-0316 is published.
