EDB-ID: 42758 | Author: Google Security Research | Published: 2017-09-19 | CVE: CVE-2017-8731 | Type: Dos | Platform: Windows | Aliases: N/A | Advisory/Source: Link | Tags: Denial of Service (DoS) | Vulnerable App: N/A |
There is a security issue in Microsoft Edge related to how HTML documents are loaded. If Edge displays a HTML document from a slow HTTP server, it is possible that a part of the document is going to be rendered before the server has finished sending the document. It is also possible that some JavaScript code is going to trigger.
By making DOM modifications before the document had a chance of fully loading, followed by another set of DOM modifications afer the page has been loaded, it is possible to trigger memory corruption that could possibly lead to an exploitable condition.
A debug log is included below. Note that the crash RIP directly preceeds a (CFG-protected) indirect call, which demonstrates the exploitability of the issue.
Since a custom HTTP server is needed to demonstrate the issue, I'm attaching all of the required code. Simply run server.py and point Edge to http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Note: this has been tested on Microsoft Edge 38.14393.1066.0 (Microsoft EdgeHTML 14.14393)
Debug log:
=========================================
(a68.9c0): Access violation - code c0000005 (first chance)
First chance exceptions are reported before any exception handling.
This exception may be expected and handled.
