Microsoft DirectWrite / AFDKO - Heap-Based Out-of-Bounds Read/Write in OpenType Font Handling Due to Empty ROS Strings
Код:
-----=====[ Background ]=====-----
AFDKO (Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType) is a set of tools for examining, modifying and building fonts. The core part of this toolset is a font handling library written in C, which provides interfaces for reading and writing Type 1, OpenType, TrueType (to some extent) and several other font formats. While the library existed as early as 2000, it was open-sourced by Adobe in 2014 on GitHub [1, 2], and is still actively developed. The font parsing code can be generally found under afdko/c/public/lib/source/*read/*.c in the project directory tree.
At the time of this writing, based on the available source code, we conclude that AFDKO was originally developed to only process valid, well-formatted font files. It contains very few to no sanity checks of the input data, which makes it susceptible to memory corruption issues (e.g. buffer overflows) and other memory safety problems, if the input file doesn't conform to the format specification.
We have recently discovered that starting with Windows 10 1709 (Fall Creators Update, released in October 2017), Microsoft's DirectWrite library [3] includes parts of AFDKO, and specifically the modules for reading and writing OpenType/CFF fonts (internally called cfr/cfw). The code is reachable through dwrite!AdobeCFF2Snapshot, called by methods of the FontInstancer class, called by dwrite!DWriteFontFace::CreateInstancedStream and dwrite!DWriteFactory::CreateInstancedStream. This strongly indicates that the code is used for instancing the relatively new variable fonts [4], i.e. building a single instance of a variable font with a specific set of attributes. The CreateInstancedStream method is not a member of a public COM interface, but we have found that it is called by d2d1!dxc::TextConvertor::InstanceFontResources, which led us to find out that it can be reached through the Direct2D printing interface. It is unclear if there are other ways to trigger the font instancing functionality.
One example of a client application which uses Direct2D printing is Microsoft Edge. If a user opens a specially crafted website with an embedded OpenType variable font and decides to print it (to PDF, XPS, or another physical or virtual printer), the AFDKO code will execute with the attacker's font file as input. Below is a description of one such security vulnerability in Adobe's library exploitable through the Edge web browser.
-----=====[ Description ]=====-----
While fuzzing the standard "tx" AFDKO utility using a "tx -cff <input file> /dev/null" command, we have encountered multiple crashes in the CFF Writer (cfw) component of the FDK. These crashes are triggered in the cfwSindexAssignSID() function in the afdko/c/public/lib/source/cffwrite/cffwrite_sindex.c file:
--- cut ---
158 /* Assign the next custom SID to the specified custom string. */
159 SID cfwSindexAssignSID(cfwCtx g, SRI index) {
160 sindexCtx h = g->ctx.sindex;
161 if (index < STD_STR_CNT) {
162 return index;
163 } else {
164 CustomRec *custom = &h->custom.array[index - STD_STR_CNT];
165 if (custom->sid == SID_UNDEF) {
166 custom->sid = h->nextid++;
167 }
168 return custom->sid;
169 }
170 }
--- cut ---
In all cases, the exception is thrown in line 165, and is caused by an out-of-bounds access to h->custom.array[] due to the "index" argument being equal to 65535 (0xffff). The two different invocations of cfwSindexAssignSID() which trigger the crash are found in the cfwDictFillTop() function in cffwrite/cffwrite_dict.c (lines 520 and 522):
--- cut ---
517 /* ROS */
518 if (top->sup.flags & ABF_CID_FONT) {
519 cfwDictSaveInt(dst,
520 cfwSindexAssignSID(g, (SRI)top->cid.Registry.impl));
521 cfwDictSaveInt(dst,
522 cfwSindexAssignSID(g, (SRI)top->cid.Ordering.impl));
523 cfwDictSaveInt(dst, top->cid.Supplement);
524 cfwDictSaveOp(dst, cff_ROS);
525 }
--- cut ---
The cause of the problem is that the top->cid.Registry.impl and/or top->cid.Ordering.impl fields are set to 0xffff while executing the above code, and they are treated as valid indexes into h->custom.array, even though they contain the special marker values.
The "Registry" and "Ordering" strings are initialized when a cff_ROS operator is encountered while loading an input DICT structure in readDICT (cffread/cffread.c):
--- cut ---
1287 case cff_ROS:
1288 CHKUFLOW(3);
1289 top->cid.Registry.ptr = sid2str(h, (SID)INDEX_INT(0));
1290 top->cid.Ordering.ptr = sid2str(h, (SID)INDEX_INT(1));
1291 top->cid.Supplement = INDEX_INT(2);
1292 h->flags |= CID_FONT;
1293 break;
--- cut ---
Later on, these strings are added to the string index of the output font in cfwDictCopyTop (cffwrite/cffwrite_dict.c):
--- cut ---
193 /* Add strings to index */
194 addString(g, &dst->version);
[...]
204 addString(g, &dst->cid.Registry);
205 addString(g, &dst->cid.Ordering);
206 }
--- cut ---
where addString() is defined as:
--- cut ---
59 /* Add string to string index. */
60 static void addString(cfwCtx g, abfString *str) {
61 str->impl = cfwSindexAddString(g, str->ptr);
62 }
--- cut ---
where in turn cfwSindexAddString() is defined as (cffwrite/cffwrite_sindex.c):
--- cut ---
99 /* Add string. If standard string return its SID, otherwise if in table return
100 existing record index, else add to table and return new record index. If
101 string is empty return SRI_UNDEF. */
102 SRI cfwSindexAddString(cfwCtx g, char *string) {
103 sindexCtx h = g->ctx.sindex;
104 size_t index;
105 StdRec *std;
106
107 if (string == NULL || *string == '\0') {
108 return SRI_UNDEF; /* Reject invalid strings */
109 }
[...]
--- cut ---
As a result, it should be possible to set cid.Registry.impl and/or cid.Ordering.impl to SRI_UNDEF (0xffff) with non-existent or empty strings. The cfwEndFont() function attempts to protect against this situation by checking if the string pointers are not equal to ABF_UNSET_PTR:
--- cut ---
1875 /* Validate CID data */
1876 if (top->cid.Registry.ptr == ABF_UNSET_PTR ||
1877 top->cid.Ordering.ptr == ABF_UNSET_PTR ||
1878 top->cid.Supplement == ABF_UNSET_INT) {
1879 return cfwErrBadDict;
1880 }
--- cut ---
However these checks are insufficient, as it is still possible to make cfwSindexAddString() return SRI_UNDEF for correctly initialized, but empty strings. This results in passing 0xffff as an argument to cfwSindexAssignSID(), which triggers out-of-bounds reads in lines 165 and 168 in cffwrite_sindex.c, and potentially an OOB write in line 166. Under specific conditions, this may lead to memory corruption and arbitrary code execution.
-----=====[ Proof of Concept ]=====-----
The CFF table inside the proof of concept poc.otf font has the strings "Adobe" and "Identity" (corresponding to the Registry and Ordering fields) modified to "\0dobe" and "\0dentity". As the strings appear to be empty to cfwSindexAddString(), the SRI_UNDEF value is returned and later passed to cfwSindexAssignSID(), which triggers a crash.
The font is also specially crafted to parse correctly with DirectWrite but trigger the bug in AFDKO. The original CFF2 table was left untouched, and another, modified CFF table from an external CID-keyed font was added with the tag "CFF ". This way, DirectWrite successfully loads the legitimate variable font, and AFDKO processes the modified version as the CFF table takes precedence over CFF2 due to the logic implemented in srcOpen() in afdko/c/public/lib/source/cffread/cffread.c.
-----=====[ Crash logs ]=====-----
