X-Git-Tag: release-1.0.21~1 X-Git-Url: https://git.librecmc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=17a33dfd95b1a29e90db76414eb9622df9632320;p=oweals%2Ftinc.git Drop packets forwarded via TCP if they are too big (CVE-2013-1428). Normally all requests sent via the meta connections are checked so that they cannot be larger than the input buffer. However, when packets are forwarded via meta connections, they are copied into a packet buffer without checking whether it fits into it. Since the packet buffer is allocated on the stack, this in effect allows an authenticated remote node to cause a stack overflow. This issue was found by Martin Schobert. --- diff --git a/src/net_packet.c b/src/net_packet.c index 1efc60d..054679e 100644 --- a/src/net_packet.c +++ b/src/net_packet.c @@ -394,6 +394,9 @@ static void receive_udppacket(node_t *n, vpn_packet_t *inpkt) { void receive_tcppacket(connection_t *c, const char *buffer, int len) { vpn_packet_t outpkt; + if(len > sizeof outpkt.data) + return; + outpkt.len = len; if(c->options & OPTION_TCPONLY) outpkt.priority = 0;
