KL-001-2015-003 : SiS Windows VGA Display Manager Multiple Privilege
Escalation
Title: SiS Windows VGA Display Manager Multiple Privilege Escalation
Advisory ID: KL-001-2015-003
Publication Date: 2015.09.01
Publication URL:

1. Vulnerability Details
Affected Vendor: Silicon Integrated Systems Corporation
Affected Product: Windows VGA Display Manager
Affected Version: 6.14.10.3930
Platform: Microsoft Windows 7 (x86), Microsoft Windows XP SP3
CWE Classification: CWE-123: Write-what-where condition
Impact: Arbitrary Code Execution
Attack vector: IOCTL
CVE-ID: CVE-2015-5465
2. Vulnerability Description
Vulnerabilities within the srvkp module allows an attacker
to inject memory they control into an arbitrary location
they define or cause memory corruption. IOCTL request codes
0x96002400 and 0x96002404 have been demonstrated to trigger
these vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities can be used
to obtain control of code flow in a privileged process and
ultimately be used to escalate the privilege of an attacker.
3. Technical Description
Example against Windows XP:
Windows XP Kernel Version 2600 (Service Pack 3) UP Free x86
compatible
Product: WinNt, suite: TerminalServer SingleUserTS
Built by: 2600.xpsp_sp3_qfe.101209-1646
Machine Name:
Kernel base = 0x804d7000 PsLoadedModuleList = 0x805540c0

KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (8e)
This is a very common bugcheck. Usually the exception address
pinpoints
the driver/function that caused the problem. Always note this
address
as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this
address.
Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003. This means a
hard
coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
/NODEBUG. This is not supposed to happen as developers should
never have
hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
system is booted /DEBUG. This will let us see why this breakpoint
is
happening.
Arguments:
Arg1: c0000005, The exception code that was not handled
Arg2: ac08f2fa, The address that the exception occurred at
Arg3: 93df4a50, Trap Frame
Arg4: 00000000
