SVE-2017-8974: TOCTOU Race Condition in Samsung TrustZone SCrypto Driver

Summary Due to a race condition in input validation, the SCrypto implementation of the drTima secure driver (uuid ffffffffd0000000000000000000000a) was susceptible to a buffer overflow. The drTima secure driver implements a fully featured crypto engine entirely in software, called SCrypto. The SCrypto APIs are callable by all Trustlets without restriction. SCrypto is in fact the OpenSSL’s FIPS compliant library with an abstraction layer added to facilitate the same APIs for crypto operations that are present between Trustlets and Secure Drivers. The SCrypto command implements three kinds of functions: hashing (MD function family), encryption/decryption (3DES, AES, RSA), and signing (RSA). The race condition vulnerability is in the ciphering command implementation of RSA encryption.

CVE-2021-25452: Kernel Permanent Denial of Service Vulnerability in the Vision DSP Kernel Driver

There is a memory management and a path traversal vulnerability in the vision DSP kernel driver of Exynos S20 devices. These vulnerabilities can be leveraged by a malicious untrusted application to permanently disable the device until it is factory reset. Vulnerability Details The Exynos DSP driver implements an ioctl call that allows applications to upload a custom model (graph) for the dsp device. The DSP_IOC_LOAD_GRAPH ioctl handler of the /dev/dsp device receives an array of names of the graph binaries to be loaded. The dsp_kernel_alloc function appends the “.elf” extension to the user-supplied name then uses the kernel’s request firmware API to load it from the file system.

Unbox Your Phone - Part I.

Summary This is the first part of a blog series about reverse engineering and exploiting Samsung’s TrustZone. Following parts in the series so far: 2, 3. This first post covers the basics of the architecture. All of this is public info, nothing new, all of it has been covered in bits and pieces in various publications before. Some of it comes from Trustonic/Samsung materials, some of it from open source software, and some of it from the few great instances of prior research. It’s here as an intro, for completeness. Later in the series, I summarize the reverse engineering results and explain the vulnerabilities that I have found.

Kernel Vmalloc Use-After-Free in the ION Allocator

Summary In this advisory we are disclosing a vmap/vmalloc use-after-free vulnerability within the Android ION allocator, that impacts most Android devices that utilize ION. The exploitability of the vulnerability depends on how the various kernel drivers use the allocated ION buffers, the version of the kernel and the vendor specific modifications to the ION subsystem. In the most serious cases the vulnerability can be used to corrupt vmallocated kernel buffers, including kernel stacks, to achieve kernel code execution and compromise the integrity of the kernel. The ION allocator went over multiple refactors throughout its evolution, yet the vulnerability persisted within the Android common and the Linux upstream kernel branches.

CVE-2021-22390: Huawei NPU Kernel Driver Use-After-Free

Summary Due to a bug in the way mappings are closed it is possible to free a kmallocated memory chunk arbitrary times. This vulnerability can be used to craft a use after free scenario against any kernel structure that is allocated from the kmalloc-64 cache. There is rich public literature on how such use after free vulnerabilities can be utilized to compromise the kernel, achieve code execution in kernel context, and elevate privileges of user space processes. Even when modern mitigation is deployed. The mmap handler is exposed through the /dev/davinci0 character device. Due to the applied selinux policy, access to this device is restricted to the hiaiserver system process.

Unburdened By What Has Been: Exploiting New Attack Surfaces in Radio Layer 2 for Baseband RCE on Samsung Exynos

We have written extensively about remote baseband vulnerability research in the past, examining various vendors’ baseband OS micro-architectures and exploring their implementations for remotely exploitable bugs. So have many others. One might say, our research exists in the context in which it lives and what came before it: whether it be about finding (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) or exploiting (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14) vulnerabilities. However, one area that has been absent from prior art was a direct examination of lower layers of Radio Layer protocols for security vulnerabilities.

[BugTales] Da Vinci Hits a Nerve: Exploiting Huawei’s NPU Driver

Samsung’s neural processing framework has received a lot of attention from the security community since its introduction. Hardware isolation vulnerabilities have been demonstrated, both on the NPU and DSP cores (1, 2), that could be used to compromise the kernel. The surrounding kernel code was also exploited by multiple researchers to gain local privilege escalation (1, 2). I, too, explored in a previous blog post how a kmalloc overflow within the Samsung NPU kernel driver can be exploited to gain arbitrary kernel read/write access. As a follow up work, I’ve decided to investigate Huawei’s implementation of their neural processing framework. Despite being the second largest vendor on the Android market, recently there have been lot fewer technical papers published about the security of their devices.

Full Chain Baseband Exploits, Part 3

Additional posts in this series: Part 1 Part 2 In my Basebanheimer talk at Hardwear.io, I explained a method for exploiting the Mediatek Baseband Pivot vulnerability CVE-2022-21765 for arbitrary code execution in the Linux kernel on Mediatek’s older (“Helio”) chipsets, which use 32-bit kernels. I also mentioned that using previous ideas, the vulnerability could theoretically be exploited on Mediatek’s newest chipset family (Dimensity, which uses 64-bit kernels) as well. After the conference, with my college Lorant Szabo we have completed this exercise. The vulnerabilities: CVE-2022-21765 and CVE-2022-21769 To recap, the vulnerabilities provide an OOB read/write in the Linux kernel driver that implements the Application (AP) and Cellular Processor (CP) interface, which Mediatek calls the CCCI driver.

CVE-2021-25491: Kernel NULL Pointer Dereferences due to Missing Error Checks

There are a series of memory corruption vulnerabilities in Samsung Exynos kernels, due to improper error checks, after dma_buf_vmap calls. These bugs can be abused by various privileged processes to cause NULL pointer accesses and crash the kernel. Vulnerability Details The kernel uses the dma_buf_vmap function if it needs to map a dma buffer into the kernel address space to access its content. This function returns a NULL pointer if it encounters an error during its execution. While some drivers employ a null check on the returned pointer, many call sites incorrectly use the IS_ERR macro which explicitly allows NULL pointers.

Unbox Your Phone - Part II.

Summary This is the second part of a blog series covering my security research into Samsung’s TrustZone. This post is a companion to my talk from Ekoparty 2017, namely the reverse engineering process of T-base. The slides and video of the talk are both available online. In fact, since both of those are available, for this part of the series I didn’t quite write a “storytelling” blog post. Instead, this post only does what the slide/video format does not accomplish: a more accessible enumeration of the most important results (code snippets, declarations of reversed functions/structures). So it’s more like a wiki then a blog post.
