Google Android - libutils UTF16 to UTF8 Conversion Heap Buffer Overflow
Код:
Source: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=840

There's an inconsistency between the way that the two functions in libutils/Unicode.cpp handle invalid surrogate pairs in UTF16, resulting in a mismatch between the size calculated by utf16_to_utf8_length and the number of bytes written by utf16_to_utf8.

This results in a heap-buffer-overflow; one route to this code is the String8 constructor initialising a String8 from a String16. This can be reached via binder calls to the core system service "android.security.keystore" from a normal app context without any additional permissions. There are probably other routes to reach this code with attacker controlled data.

ssize_t utf16_to_utf8_length(const char16_t *src, size_t src_len)
{
  if (src == NULL || src_len == 0) {
    return -1;
  }

  size_t ret = 0;
  const char16_t* const end = src + src_len;
  while (src < end) {
    if ((*src & 0xFC00) == 0xD800 && (src + 1) < end
        && (*++src & 0xFC00) == 0xDC00) { // <---- increment src here even if condition is false
      // surrogate pairs are always 4 bytes.
      ret += 4;
      src++;
    } else {
      ret += utf32_codepoint_utf8_length((char32_t) *src++); // <---- increment src again
    }
  }
  return ret;
}

void utf16_to_utf8(const char16_t* src, size_t src_len, char* dst)
{
  if (src == NULL || src_len == 0 || dst == NULL) {
    return;
  }

  const char16_t* cur_utf16 = src;
  const char16_t* const end_utf16 = src + src_len;
  char *cur = dst;
  while (cur_utf16 < end_utf16) {
    char32_t utf32;
    // surrogate pairs
    if((*cur_utf16 & 0xFC00) == 0xD800 && (cur_utf16 + 1) < end_utf16
       && (*(cur_utf16 + 1) & 0xFC00) == 0xDC00) { // <---- no increment if condition is false
      utf32 = (*cur_utf16++ - 0xD800) << 10;
      utf32 |= *cur_utf16++ - 0xDC00;
      utf32 += 0x10000;
    } else {
      utf32 = (char32_t) *cur_utf16++; // <---- increment src
    }
    const size_t len = utf32_codepoint_utf8_length(utf32);
    utf32_codepoint_to_utf8((uint8_t*)cur, utf32, len);
    cur += len;
  }
  *cur = '\0';
}

An example character sequence would be the following:

\x41\xd8 \x41\xd8 \x41\xdc \x00\x00

This will be processed by utf16_to_utf8_len like this:

first loop iteration:

\x41\xd8 \x41\xd8 \x41\xdc \x00\x00
^
invalid surrogate; skip at (*++src & 0xfc00 == 0xdc00)

\x41\xd8 \x41\xd8 \x41\xdc \x00\x00
         ^ 
         invalid surrogate; emit length 0 at (utf32_codepoint_utf8_length(*src++))

second loop iteration:

\x41\xd8 \x41\xd8 \x41\xdc \x00\x00
                  ^ 
                  invalid surrogate; emit length 0 at (utf32_codepoint_utf8_length(*src++))

And will be processed by utf16_to_utf8 like this:

first loop iteration:

\x41\xd8 \x41\xd8 \x41\xdc \x00\x00
^
invalid surrogate; write 0 length character to output

second loop iteration

\x41\xd8 \x41\xd8 \x41\xdc \x00\x00
         ^ 
         valid surrogate pair 0xd841 0xdc41; emit length 4 character to output

We can then construct a crash PoC using this sequence for the String16 passed to the keystore method 'getKeyCharacteristics' that will perform the String8(String16&) constructor on attacker supplied input; and provide a massive input string. The crash PoC should write 0x20000 * 2/3 bytes into a 2 byte heap allocation. It has been tested on a recent nexus5x userdebug build; resulting in the following crash (the object backing an android::vectorImpl has been corrupted by the overwrite, and "\xf0\xa0\x91\x81" is the utf8 encoding for the utf16 "\x41\xd8 \x41\xdc"):

######################################################

Actually you can compromise many native system services using this bug (ie those not implemented in Java); because of the interface token checking code in Parcel.cpp. See attached for another PoC that takes as a first command line argument the name of the service to crash. On my nexus 5x with very unscientific testing, this includes the following services:

 - phone, iphonesubinfo, isub (com.android.phone)
 - telecom, voiceinteraction, backup, audio, location, notification, connectivity, wifi, network_management, statusbar, device_policy, mount, input_method, window, content, account, telephony.registry, user, package, batterystats (system_server)
 - media.audio_policy, media.audio_flinger (mediaserver)
 - drm.drmManager (drmserver)
 - android.security.keystore (keystore)
 - SurfaceFlinger (surfaceflinger)
 
bool Parcel::enforceInterface(const String16& interface,
                              IPCThreadState* threadState) const
{
    int32_t strictPolicy = readInt32();
    if (threadState == NULL) {
        threadState = IPCThreadState::self();
    }
    if ((threadState->getLastTransactionBinderFlags() &
         IBinder::FLAG_ONEWAY) != 0) {
      // For one-way calls, the callee is running entirely
      // disconnected from the caller, so disable StrictMode entirely.
      // Not only does disk/network usage not impact the caller, but
      // there's no way to commuicate back any violations anyway.
      threadState->setStrictModePolicy(0);
    } else {
      threadState->setStrictModePolicy(strictPolicy);
    }
    const String16 str(readString16());
    if (str == interface) {
        return true;
    } else {
        ALOGW("**** enforceInterface() expected '%s' but read '%s'",
                String8(interface).string(), String8(str).string());
        return false;
    }
}
