|---|
| Описание | TinyWebServer is a lightweight Web server framework for Linux written in C++, featuring a concurrent model with thread pool, non-blocking sockets and epoll, as well as support for HTTP request parsing, user authentication, and synchronous/asynchronous logging management.
This code is vulnerable to CWE-122 (Heap-based Buffer Overflow) as it uses unsafe string concatenation functions alongside fixed-size heap memory allocation. The do_request function processes user-provided username and password inputs extracted from HTTP POST requests. When handling user registration, the function allocates a fixed 200-byte heap buffer via malloc(), then uses strcpy() and strcat() to concatenate SQL template strings, wrapping characters, and unvalidated username/password inputs into this buffer.The issue is that no bounds checking is performed to verify if the total length of the concatenated SQL string (SQL template + wrapping characters + username + password) exceeds the 200-byte buffer size. Since usernames and passwords can each contain up to 99 bytes of user input (for a combined maximum of 198 bytes), the total length of the concatenated string easily exceeds the buffer’s capacity. This triggers a heap-based buffer overflow that corrupts metadata in adjacent heap memory, causing server crashes, and potentially enabling arbitrary code execution under specific conditions.
