TITLE: SpeedProject Products ZIP/UUE File Extraction Buffer Overflow SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA17420 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/17420/ CRITICAL: Moderately critical IMPACT: System access WHERE: >From remote SOFTWARE: Speedproject SpeedCommander 10.x http://secunia.com/product/6185/ Speedproject SpeedCommander 11.x http://secunia.com/product/6186/ Speedproject Squeez 5.x http://secunia.com/product/6184/ Speedproject ZipStar 5.x http://secunia.com/product/6187/ DESCRIPTION: Secunia Research has discovered two vulnerabilities in various SpeedProject products, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. 1) A boundary error exists in CxZIP60.dll and CxZIP60u.dll due to the unsafe use of the "lstrcat()" function when constructing the full pathname of a file that is extracted from a ZIP archive. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and allows arbitrary code execution when a specially crafted archive is extracted. The vulnerability has been confirmed in the following products. * ZipStar 5.0 Build 4285 * Squeez 5.0 Build 4285 * SpeedCommander 11.0 Build 4430 * SpeedCommander 10.51 Build 4430 2) A boundary error exists in CxUux60.dll and CxUux60u.dll due to the unsafe use of the "lstrcpy()" function when constructing the full pathname of the file that is decoded from a UUE file. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and allows arbitrary code execution when a specially crafted UUE file is decoded. The vulnerability has been confirmed in the following products. * Squeez 5.0 Build 4285 * SpeedCommander 11.0 Build 4430 * SpeedCommander 10.51 Build 4430 SOLUTION: Update to the fixed versions. http://www.speedproject.de/enu/download.html SpeedCommander 10: Update to version 10.52 Build 4450. SpeedCommander 11: Update to version 11.01 Build 4450. Squeez 5.0: Update to Squeez 5.10 Build 4460. ZipStar 5.0: Update to ZipStar 5.10 Build 4460.
