EDB-ID: 43780 | Author: Google Security Research | Published: 2018-01-19 | CVE: CVE-2017-13878 | Type: Dos | Platform: macOS | Aliases: N/A | Advisory/Source: Link | Tags: N/A | Vulnerable App: N/A | AppleIntelCapriController::getDisplayPipeCapability reads an attacker-controlled dword value from a userclient structure
input buffer which it uses to index a small array of pointers to memory to copy back to userspace.
There is no bounds checking on the attacker supplied value allowing (with some heap grooming) the disclosure of arbitrary
kernel memory:
__text:000000000002ACE0 mov eax, [rbx] ; structure input buffer
__text:000000000002ACE2 mov rsi, [rdi+rax*8+0E48h] ; rax is controlled -> rsi read OOB
__text:000000000002ACEA cmp byte ptr [rsi+1DCh], 0 ; as long as this byte isn't NULL
__text:000000000002ACF1 jz short loc_2AD10
__text:000000000002ACF3 add rsi, 1E11h ; void * ; add this offset

__text:000000000002ACFF mov rdi, r14 ; void *
__text:000000000002AD02 call _memcpy ; copy to structure output buffer, will be returned to userspace

MacOS kernel memory disclosure due to lack of bounds checking in AppleIntelCapriController::getDisplayPipeCapability
AppleIntelCapriController::getDisplayPipeCapability reads an attacker-controlled dword value from a userclient structure
input buffer which it uses to index a small array of pointers to memory to copy back to userspace.
There is no bounds checking on the attacker supplied value allowing (with some heap grooming) the disclosure of arbitrary
kernel memory:
