标题: Microsoft Font Subsetting - DLL Double Free in MergeFormat12Cmap / MakeFormat12MergedGlyphList EDB-ID: 47263 CVE: 2019-1144 类型: DOS 平台: WINDOWS 发布日期: 2019-08-15 漏洞利用脚本: -----=====[ Background ]=====-----

The Microsoft Font Subsetting DLL (fontsub.dll) is a default Windows helper library for subsetting TTF fonts; i.e. converting fonts to their more compact versions based on the specific glyphs used in the document where the fonts are embedded. It is used by Windows GDI and Direct2D, and parts of the same code are also found in the t2embed.dll library designed to load and process embedded fonts.

The DLL exposes two API functions: CreateFontPackage and MergeFontPackage. We have developed a testing harness which invokes a pseudo-random sequence of such calls with a chosen font file passed as input. This report describes a crash triggered by a malformed font file in the fontsub.dll code through our harness.

-----=====[ Description ]=====-----

We have encountered the following crash in fontsub!MergeFormat12Cmap:

A similar double-free crash was also observed at FONTSUB!MergeFormat12Cmap+0x13b, which is the second free() call directly after a MakeFormat12MergedGlyphList() call.

The root cause of the crash seems to be the fact that in case of an error, the MakeFormat12MergedGlyphList() function frees the buffer pointed to by its first/third argument, and then its caller, MergeFormat12Cmap(), also unconditionally frees both buffers.

The issue reproduces on a fully updated Windows 10 1709; we haven't tested earlier versions of the system. It could be potentially used to execute arbitrary code in the context of the FontSub client process. It is easiest to reproduce with PageHeap enabled, but it is also possible to observe a crash in a default system configuration. Attached are 3 proof of concept malformed font files which trigger the crash.
