Recently, ZDI released the advisory for a Safari out-of-bounds write vulnerability exploited by Manfred Paul (@_manfp) in Pwn2Own. We decided to take a look at the patch and try to exploit it. The patch is rather simple: it creates a new function (IntRange::sExt) that is used to decide the integer range after applying a sign extension operation (in rangeFor). Before this patch, the program assumes that the range stays the same after applying sign extension....

Initially, our team member, Đỗ Minh Tuấn, wanted to write about the RCA (Root Cause Analysis) of CVE-2021-1870 which APT used. But Maddie Stone pointed it to us that it was actually CVE-2021-1789. None-the-less, we would still want to share with everyone the analysis done by Đỗ Minh Tuấn. The bug is assigned CVE-2021-1789 in security content of Safari 14.0.3. We successfully exploited it on WebKitGTK <= 2.30.5 or equivalent on WebKit....

At the beginning of this month, GitLab released a security patch for versions 14->15. Interestingly in the advisory, there was a mention of a post-auth RCE bug with CVSS 9.9. The bug exists in GitLab’s Project Imports feature, which was found by @vakzz. Incidentally, when I rummaged in the author’s h1 profile. I discovered that four months ago, he also found a bug in the import project feature: Initially, I thought it was tempting after seeing the bounty, so I started learning Rails and debugged this bug!...

For the past few weeks, I have been working on conducting N-day analysis and bug hunting in the io_uring subsystem of the Linux kernel with the guidance of my mentors, Billy and Ramdhan. In this article, I will briefly discuss the io_uring subsystem, as well as my approach to discovering and developing a new kernel exploit technique during my N-day analysis of CVE-2021-41073. I will also discuss two bugs I found while analyzing a new io_uring feature....

Introduction I recently discovered a very interesting kernel vulnerability that allows the reading of arbitrary kernel-mode address. Sadly, the vulnerability was patched in Windows 21H2 (OS Build 22000.675), and I am unsure of the CVE being assigned to it. In this short blog post, I will share my journey of trying to exploit this vulnerability. Although I didn’t finish the exploit in the end, I have decided to share this with everyone anyway....

Introduction Recently, I have had a some work which is related to Sharepoint, so I was learning on how to setup and debug old bugs of Sharepoint. In February, there was a Deserialization bug CVE-2022-22005 (post-auth of course). There is already a detailed analysis blog post about that written by a Vietnamese guy (here). The blog is written with great enthusiasm and detail. I also rely on the details in that blog to setup and debug....

That advisory states that Google is aware of two vulnerabilities exploited in the wild, CVE-2021-30632 as RCE and CVE-2021-30633 as Sandbox Escape. In this post, I will talk about the bypass sandbox vulnerability CVE-2021-30633. Man Yue Mo had published a very detailed blog post explaining CVE-2021-30632, which is a Type Confusion bug that leads to RCE in Chrome....
