CrossFire 1.7.0/1.8.0 socket/request.c memory corruption

CVSS Meta Temp Score
CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.
Current Exploit Price (≈)
Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.
CTI Interest Score
Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in CrossFire 1.7.0/1.8.0. This affects some unknown processing of the file socket/request.c. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. This is going to have an impact on integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Buffer overflow in socket/request.c in CrossFire before 1.9.0, when oldsocketmode is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) and possibly execute code by sending the server a large request.

The bug was discovered 02/28/2006. The weakness was disclosed 02/27/2006 by Luigi Auriemma (Website). It is possible to read the advisory at aluigi.altervista.org. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2006-1010. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Technical details and a public exploit are known.

After even before and not, there has been an exploit disclosed. The exploit is shared for download at aluigi.altervista.org. It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 21276 (GLSA-200604-11 : Crossfire server: Denial of Service and potential arbitrary code execution), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Gentoo Local Security Checks and running in the context l.

Upgrading to version 1.9.0 eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published 2 months after the disclosure of the vulnerability.
