CVE-2014-5289 - Kolibri WebServer 2.0 Vulnerable to RCE via Overly Long POST Request

[tekwizz123@xxxxxxxxxx]

Exploit Details
------------------
Senkas Kolibri WebServer 2.0 (available at 
http://www.senkas.com/kolibri/download.php) is vulnerable to RCE via an overly 
long POST request.

Sending the exploit will result in a SEH overwrite, which can then be use to 
redirect execution to a POP POP RET within the application's binary itself, 
which once executed, will allow the attacker to execute his/her payload located 
in the HOST field.

PoC
---------------
A PoC of this exploit follows. This will result in a meterpreter reverse tcp 
shell to 192.168.62.129 on port 4444. The exploit currently also bypasses ASLR 
by overwriting the SEH handler with an address from the binary itself. The 
offset in this exploit was confirmed to work on a Windows 7 Professional 
machine, fully updated as of August 5th, 2014:

Conclusion
---------------------
Senkas has responded to previous posts about vulnerabilities in this software, 
namely CVE-2014-4158 which results in RCE via an overly long GET request, and 
CVE-2010-5301, which results in RCE via an overly long HEAD request, with the 
statement, "Please note there are number of reported "security vulnerabilities" 
for Kolibri webserver. So let me clarify that Kolibri+ is not secure and will 
never be secure for the same reason bicycles don't have airbags."

For this reason I believe it is unlikely that this vulnerability will be 
patched considering that the other two vulnerabilities remain unpatched to this 
day.

From a quick reverse engineering of this target I believe that these three 
vulnerabilities all occur in the same piece of code that responds to requests 
for invalid pages, as a record of the invalid page request is stored on the 
stack, however I did not confirm that this is the case, and this remains to be 
proven.

Please feel free to question me if you require any more information to 
replicate this bug or if any part of this is confusing at all.
