Synopsis

The remote Gentoo host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200602-09 (BomberClone: Remote execution of arbitrary code)

Stefan Cornelius of the Gentoo Security team discovered multiple missing buffer checks in BomberClone's code. Impact :

By sending overly long error messages to the game via network, a remote attacker may exploit buffer overflows to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running BomberClone. Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.

Solution

All BomberClone users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose '>=games-action/bomberclone-0.11.6.2-r1'

Public Exploits


Target Network Port(s): N/A
Target Asset(s): N/A
Exploit Available: True (Metasploit Framework, Exploit-DB)
Exploit Ease: Exploits are available

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the GLSA-200602-09 : BomberClone: Remote execution of arbitrary code vulnerability:

  1. Metasploit: exploit/windows/misc/bomberclone_overflow
    [Bomberclone 0.11.6 Buffer Overflow]
  2. Exploit-DB: exploits/multiple/remote/1602.c
    [EDB-1602: BomberClone < 0.11.6.2 - Error Messages Remote Buffer Overflow]
  3. Exploit-DB: exploits/windows/remote/16433.rb
    [EDB-16433: BomberClone 0.11.6 - Remote Buffer Overflow (Metasploit)]

Before running any exploit against any system, make sure you are authorized by the owner of the target system(s) to perform such activity. In any other case, this would be considered as an illegal activity.

WARNING: Beware of using unverified exploits from sources such as GitHub or Exploit-DB. These exploits and PoCs could contain malware. For more information, see how to use exploits safely.
