SNS Advisory No.31
Trend Micro InterScan VirusWall for Windows NT 3.51 FtpSaveC*P.dll
Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Problem first discovered: 30 May 2001
Published: 13 Jun 2001 
Last Updated: 13 Jun 2001 
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Overview
---------
A buffer overflow vulnerability was found in administrative programs,
FtpSaveCSP.dll and FtpSaveCVP.dll, of InterScan VirusWall for Windows NT.
It allows a remote user to execute an arbitrary command with SYSTEM
privilege.

Problem Description
--------------------
If long strings are included in a certain parameter of configuration by
exploitation of the vulnerability that was reported by SNS Advisory
No.28, a buffer overflow occurs when viewing following dll(s):

  http://server/interscan/cgi-bin/FtpSaveCSP.dll
  http://server/interscan/cgi-bin/FtpSaveCVP.dll

A buffer overflow occurs with following dump(Japanese version):

  00F9FC04  4F 50 50 50 51 51  OPPPQQ
  00F9FC0A  51 52 52 52 53 53  QRRRSS
  00F9FC10  53 54 54 54 55 55  STTTUU
  00F9FC16  55 56 61 62 63 64  UVabcd
  00F9FC1C  57 58 58 58 59 59  WXXXYY
  00F9FC22  59 5A 5A 5A 61 61  YZZZaa
  00F9FC28  61 61 61 61 61 61  aaaaaa
  00F9FC2E  61 61 61 61 61 61  aaaaaa

register:

  EAX = 00F9FC1C  EIP = 64636261

Therefore, arbitrary code may be executed by calling eax, replaced a 
value with attacker supplied arbitrary address.
Combined with the vulnerability of ftpsave.dll in SNS Advisory No.28, a
remote user can easily launch an attack.

  InterScan VirusWall for Windows NT 3.51J build 1321 Japanese
  InterScan VirusWall for Windows NT 3.51  build 1321 English
