GHSL-2020-007: Out-of-bounds write in Android Open Source Project - CVE-2020-0072
Man Yue MoSummary
An Out-Of-Bounds write of lock_tlv in Android's rw_t2t_handle_tlv_detect_rsp (NFC) could leads to remote code execution.
Product
Android Open Source Project
CVE
CVE-2020-0072
Tested Version
Pixel3a with build id: QQ1A.191205.011 (tag android-10.0.0_r16). (latest publicly available build as of the time of writing) Proxmark3 used is the RDV4.01
Details
In the rw_t2t_handle_tlv_detect_rsp function, p_t2t->lock_tlv is written to with index p_t2t->num_lock_tlvs 1. As p_t2t->num_lock_tlvs is incremented here 2, by repeatedly triggering this branch, it is possible to increase the value of p_t2t->num_lock_tlvs beyond the size of p_t2t->lock_tlv (RW_T2T_MAX_LOCK_TLVS), causing an OOB write.
Impact
If succesfuly exploited, an attacker within NFC range could obtain remote code execution on android device's NFC daemon.
