VERITAS NETBACKUP 5.1 'TIME_STAMP' VULNERABILITY

Date: 07/2005
Risk: Low/Medium
Soft: NetBackup 5.1
OS  : All supported win32
Fix : coming soon



I. VULNERABILITY

NETBACKUP as his brother BEXEC runs a NDMP server to 10000/TCP. This 
same service is calling another executable
when doing some particular requests. This is possible to produce an 
access violation with the help of
this last executable while sending a 'CONFIG' message request to the 
NDMP server with a timestamp in the ndmpheader out of range.

enum ndmp_message_type
{
    NDMP_REQUEST
};
struct ndmp_header
{
    u_long            sequence; (local counter that starts at 1 and 
increases by 1 for every message sent)
    u_long            time_stamp;  (in seconds since 00:00:00 GMT, 
Jan 1, 1970)
    ndmp_message_type message_type; (request or reply message)
    ndmp_message      message; (tape data config etc)
    u_long            reply_sequence; (number from the request 
message to which the reply is associated)
    ndmp_error        error; (verbose)
};

II. PROOF OF CONCEPT

Not published, probably soon on a forum nor mailing list, else when 
you know of the ndmp protocol, this is not that
hard to trigger it by yourself.

III. RISK

Does not looks that big at a first look but my 10$ to this that it 
doens't smell good unreadable datas at 0x00000000, I have maybe missed 
up
a field to overwrite during my tests letting us to force the 
executable to read malicious code, if yes, this might be critical, 
because the main service
does not crash, allowing multiple hacking attempts.
