IGMP fragmentation bug in Windows 98/2000


From: coolio () K-R4D COM (Coolio)

Windows 98's TCP/IP stack chokes on fragmented IGMP packets. There is an
exploit out there called "fawx" that supposedly exploits this problem,
but I haven't had any success crashing Windows with it. Recently I was
given source to a program that reliably crashed Win98/98SE/2000 build 2000
and challenged my friend defile to see who could write a version of it
utilizing handcrafted igmp/ip headers for source spoofing support. Here is
the resulting code that works against most systems with one or two tries.


/***
        Kox by Coolio (coolio () k-r4d com)

        this was a successful attempt to duplicate klepto/defile's kod win98
        exploit and add spoofing support to it. me and defile made this a
        race to see who could do spoofing kod first. he won. (mine's better!)
        my kox and defile's skod output about the same packets
        but he had skod working a few hours before i had kox working.

        affected systems: windows 98, windows 98 SE, windows 2000 build 2000
        results: bluescreen, tcp/ip stack failure, lockup, or instant reboot

        thanks to klepto and defile for making kod, psilord for wanting
        to understand what we were doing, greg for telling me about iphdr.ihl,
        mancide for letting me use his win98 boxen to test on, and the
        few other people i crashed trying to get this working right.

        also thanks to the authors of elvis for making such a badass editor.
