Wago PFC200 iocheckd service 'I/O-Check' cache Memory Corruption (CVE-2019-5185)

high Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 500916

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

An exploitable stack buffer overflow vulnerability vulnerability exists in the iocheckd service I/O-Check functionality of WAGO PFC 200. An attacker can send a specially crafted packet to trigger the parsing of this cache file. At 0x1ea28 the extracted state value from the xml file is used as an argument to /etc/config- tools/config_interfaces interface=X1 state=<contents of state node> using sprintf(). The destination buffer sp+0x40 is overflowed with the call to sprintf() for any state values that are greater than 512-len(/etc/config-tools/config_interfaces interface=X1 state=) in length. Later, at 0x1ea08 strcpy() is used to copy the contents of the stack buffer that was overflowed sp+0x40 into sp+0x440. The buffer sp+0x440 is immediately adjacent to sp+0x40 on the stack. Therefore, there is no NULL termination on the buffer sp+0x40 since it overflowed into sp+0x440. The strcpy() will result in invalid memory access. An state value of length 0x3c9 will cause the service to crash.
