Full Text Bug Listing

When extracting a specially crafted xbox-iso image, it is possible to traverse
directories. Maybe it's possible to overwrite the .bashrc with arbitrary code.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get a specially crafted ISO-File
2. Extract
3. Check results

Actual Results:  
bash-2.05b$ extract-xiso test.iso
extract-xiso v2.4b2 for linux - written by in <in@fishtank.com>

extracting test.iso:

extracting test/.%2f..%2f..%2f..%2fTESTFILE (0 bytes) [OK]
extracting test/./../../xploit (0 bytes) [OK]
extracting
test/AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~
(0 bytes) [OK]
extracting test/OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (0 bytes) [OK]

4 files in test.iso total 0 bytes
bash-2.05b$ xdvdfs_extract test.iso

Done.
bash-2.05b$ xbiso test.iso
bash: xbiso: command not found
bash-2.05b$ ./xbiso test.iso
Failed to create root directory: File exists

Extracting file OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Extracting file .%2f..%2f..%2f..%2fTESTFILE
End of archive


Expected Results:  
Do whatever is necessary to prohibit directory traversals

Upstream looks dead on xbiso and extract-xiso...

xiso bugzilla has a bug open for "Segmentation Fault (due to 'long
filenames'?)"
for a while. It's probably exploitable as well. I guess when these apps were
written nobody thought about malicious ISO images.

There's a perl port of xbiso at http://www.bogus.net/~codex/files/xbiso.tar.gz.
Maybe it could be a suitable replacement (assuming it does better path
checking,
it does at least force a -d option) if no fix is forthcoming. 

xdvdfs-tools seems to have an official page now
http://www.layouts.xbox-scene.com/ and a newer 2.1 release. Stefan, do you have
any idea whether it's also vulnerable?

xdvds_extract 2.1 has the same problem.

Maybe you could report it upstream? I had a quick look at the new xdvdfs tools
site but couldn't find an email address anywhere.

Ok, I tried to contact a guy called VooD via an email-address i found in his
forum-profile. Let's hope it works...

Got a response from Vood. Upstream (Somebody called CloneXB) is now aware of
this, but it'll probably take some time till he updates, since he is very busy.

Hi, I checked the extractor code, and I think CloneXB didn

Hi, I checked the extractor code, and I think CloneXB didn´t make any change 
from the original by [SNK]/Supremacy. The extractor fitted our needs so we 
didn´t need to change anything and we focused on the xbox layout dumper and new 
options/fixes for the creator.

Anyway is in pure C, and is very simple,so I think It won´t be hard for a 
medium linux user to fix that. Also, I think CloneXB has not coding experiences 
with linux so...maybe you´ll get a faster solution by just asking some good 
linux coder to fix the problem. 

Btw, sorry for not including any email adress on the web, but I use to visit 
the web´s forums everyday, and either CloneXB, Moobar, and me are easily 
accesible from Xbox-Scene forums. (I had VERY bad experiences with spam, and 
users in a previous project)

If some of you finally manages to fix that security issue let me know, so I 
could send the fixes to CloneXB and include them in the next "official" 
release...maybe we should open a sf.net account but XBDVDFS_tools original 
coder is hard to contact (VERY...in fact all the feedback we got from him in 6 
months of work was a post in xbox-scene) and I think we should first ask him 
for his permission.

Regards

I've commited fixes for them all. xdvdfs-tools is version bumped and only the
latest one has the fix (I'll remove the older one if it works ;-)). Stefan can
you please test whether the fixes work with your modified ISOs and report back.

As regards sourceforge, I'd say go for it, since it's GPL license and the
original author appears to have abandoned it.

None of my modified images works with the patched version of xdvdfs-tools. Good
work. VooD, an sf-project would be great. xdvdfs-tools is, imho, the best tool
of the 3 mentioned in this bug, give it a try! 

Created an attachment (id=59552) [details]
xdvdfs-tools-2.1-fnamefix.patch

xbiso and extract-xiso patches submitted upstream, maybe someone will take care
of them. Attaching xdvdfs-tools patch here, since it has no upstream. Closing.

Chris: security will close it when the vulnerability will be fixed...

Please bump xdvdfs-tools with the patch, and we'll wait for upstream on the
other two.

I've already commited patches for them all. I have a feeling upstream may be
unresponsive..

Great :)

Could you revbump them so that people pick the fix up by upgrading ? This is
also needed for GLSA, should we include one.

Thx in advance

Done. 

Thx Chris !
Ready for GLSA vote

I vote for a GLSA on this one.

i'm no real dev, but i vote for no GLSA. exploitation is hard (i'm not really
sure if its possible to extract actual content to files, i only managed to
overwrite with 0byte files, you've got to know the name of the file to overwrite
etc) it's a poor directory traversal and the affected tools aren't widely spread.

I tend to vote NO on this one too. 

Agreed it's a little unlikely, voting NO and closing.
