Autodesk Maya Script Nodes Arbitrary Command Execution



1. *Advisory Information*

Title: Autodesk Maya Script Nodes Arbitrary Command Execution
Advisory Id: CORE-2009-0910
Advisory URL:
http://www.coresecurity.com/content/maya-arbitrary-command-execution
Date published: 2009-11-23
Date of last update: 2009-11-20
Vendors contacted: Autodesk
Release mode: User release



2. *Vulnerability Information*

Class: Failure to Sanitize Data into a Different Plane [CWE-74]
Impact: Code execution
Remotely Exploitable: Yes
Locally Exploitable: No
Bugtraq ID: 36636
CVE Name: CVE-2009-3578



3. *Vulnerability Description*

Autodesk Maya [2] is a high-end 3D computer graphics and 3D modeling
software package.

Autodesk Maya offers so called "Script Nodes" as a way to program
animation behavior using MEL (Maya Embedded Language) and the Python
programming language. The Autodesk Maya file formats support embedding
of scripting code as part of a scene package. Programs embeded in Maya
files using scripting code are automatically executed upon opening of
the file. An attacker can take control of a system where Maya is
installed by sending a specially crafted scene package and enticing
the user to open it. The scripting code will run with the privileges
of the user running the Maya application.


4. *Vulnerable packages*

   . Autodesk Maya 2010
   . Autodesk Maya 2009
   . Autodesk Maya 2008
   . Autodesk Maya 8.5
   . Autodesk Maya 8.0
   . Alias Wavefront Maya 7.0
   . Alias Wavefront Maya 6.5


5. *Vendor Information, Solutions and Workarounds*

The vendor did not provide fixes or workaround information.

You can prevent script nodes from executing when you open a file by
following these steps:

   . Select File > Open Scene > .
   . Turn off Execute Script Nodes.
   . Click Open.


6. *Credits*

This vulnerability was discovered and researched by Diego Juarez from
Core Security Technologies during Bugweek 2009 [1].

The publication of this advisory was coordinated by Fernando Russ from
Core Security Advisories Team.


7. *Technical Description / Proof of Concept Code*

Autodesk Maya offers so called "Script Nodes" as a way to program
animation behavior using MEL (the proprietary Maya scripting language)
and the Python programming language. Script nodes are saved on the
'.mb' and '.ma' file formats along with geometry and the rest of the
scene data. By using files with embedded scripting code it is possible
to execute arbitrary commands without any restriction and without
requiring any user interaction after a user opened a malicious scene
file.

The following steps work as Proof of Concept:


   . Open Maya.
   . Add some geometry.
   . Go to Window/Animation Editors/Expression Editor.
   . Put a name on it, set "Evaluate On" to "Open/Close", insert
python code within quotes like this:



/-----
      
      python("import os");
      python("os.system('%SystemRoot%\\system32\\calc.exe')");  
      
- -----/
 Save scene to a file with '.mb' or '.ma' format. Next time you open
the scene, calc.exe will be run. This same behavior can be obtained
using pure MEL code.
