Subject: dix: Disallow GenericEvent in SendEvent request.
|
||
|
|
Git-commit: 215f894965df5fb0bb45b107d84524e700d2073c
|
||
|
|
Patch-mainline: Upstream
|
||
|
|
References: bnc#1035283 CVE-2017-10971
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The SendEvent request holds xEvent which is exactly 32 bytes long, no more,
|
||
|
|
no less. Both ProcSendEvent and SProcSendEvent verify that the received data
|
||
|
|
exactly match the request size. However nothing stops the client from passing
|
||
|
|
in event with xEvent::type = GenericEvent and any value of
|
||
|
|
xGenericEvent::length.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the case of ProcSendEvent, the event will be eventually passed to
|
||
|
|
WriteEventsToClient which will see that it is Generic event and copy the
|
||
|
|
arbitrary length from the receive buffer (and possibly past it) and send it to
|
||
|
|
the other client. This allows clients to copy unitialized heap memory out of X
|
||
|
|
server or to crash it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In case of SProcSendEvent, it will attempt to swap the incoming event by
|
||
|
|
calling a swapping function from the EventSwapVector array. The swapped event
|
||
|
|
is written to target buffer, which in this case is local xEvent variable. The
|
||
|
|
xEvent variable is 32 bytes long, but the swapping functions for GenericEvents
|
||
|
|
expect that the target buffer has size matching the size of the source
|
||
|
|
GenericEvent. This allows clients to cause stack buffer overflows.
