Summary

The Netrw plugin 125 in netrw.vim in Vim 7.2a.10 allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via shell metacharacters in filenames used by the execute and system functions within the (1) mz and (2) mc commands, as demonstrated by the netrw.v2 and netrw.v3 test cases. NOTE: this issue reportedly exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-2712.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Command Line Execution through SQL Injection
    An attacker uses standard SQL injection methods to inject data into the command line for execution. This could be done directly through misuse of directives such as MSSQL_xp_cmdshell or indirectly through injection of data into the database that would be interpreted as shell commands. Sometime later, an unscrupulous backend application (or could be part of the functionality of the same application) fetches the injected data stored in the database and uses this data as command line arguments without performing proper validation. The malicious data escapes that data plane by spawning new commands to be executed on the host.
  • Command Delimiters
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities that allows an attacker's commands to be concatenated onto a legitimate command with the intent of targeting other resources such as the file system or database. The system that uses a filter or a blacklist input validation, as opposed to whitelist validation is vulnerable to an attacker who predicts delimiters (or combinations of delimiters) not present in the filter or blacklist. As with other injection attacks, the attacker uses the command delimiter payload as an entry point to tunnel through the application and activate additional attacks through SQL queries, shell commands, network scanning, and so on.
  • Exploiting Multiple Input Interpretation Layers
    An attacker supplies the target software with input data that contains sequences of special characters designed to bypass input validation logic. This exploit relies on the target making multiples passes over the input data and processing a "layer" of special characters with each pass. In this manner, the attacker can disguise input that would otherwise be rejected as invalid by concealing it with layers of special/escape characters that are stripped off by subsequent processing steps. The goal is to first discover cases where the input validation layer executes before one or more parsing layers. That is, user input may go through the following logic in an application: In such cases, the attacker will need to provide input that will pass through the input validator, but after passing through parser2, will be converted into something that the input validator was supposed to stop.
  • Argument Injection
    An attacker changes the behavior or state of a targeted application through injecting data or command syntax through the targets use of non-validated and non-filtered arguments of exposed services or methods.
  • OS Command Injection
    In this type of an attack, an adversary injects operating system commands into existing application functions. An application that uses untrusted input to build command strings is vulnerable. An adversary can leverage OS command injection in an application to elevate privileges, execute arbitrary commands and compromise the underlying operating system.

SL3 and SL4 Only: A heap-based overflow flaw was discovered in Vim's
expansion of file name patterns with shell wildcards. An attacker
could create a specially crafted file or directory name that, when
opened by Vim, caused the application to crash or, possibly, execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2008-3432)

SL5 Only: Multiple security flaws were found in netrw.vim, the Vim
plug-in providing file reading and writing over the network. If a user
opened a specially crafted file or directory with the netrw plug-in,
it could result in arbitrary code execution as the user running Vim.
(CVE-2008-3076)

SL5 Only: A security flaw was found in zip.vim, the Vim plug-in that
handles ZIP archive browsing. If a user opened a ZIP archive using the
zip.vim plug-in, it could result in arbitrary code execution as the
user running Vim. (CVE-2008-3075)

Several input sanitization flaws were found in various Vim system
functions. If a user opened a specially crafted file, it was possible
to execute arbitrary code as the user running Vim. (CVE-2008-2712)

Ulf Härnhammar, of Secunia Research, discovered a format string
flaw in Vim's help tag processor. If a user was tricked into executing
the 'helptags' command on malicious data, arbitrary code could be
executed with the permissions of the user running Vim. (CVE-2007-2953)"

A number of security flaws were found in netrw.vim, the vim plugin
that provides the ability to read and write files over the network. If
a user opened a specially crafted file or directory with the netrw
plugin, it could result in the execution of arbitrary code as the user

A number of input validation flaws were found in vim's keyword and tag
handling. If vim looked up a document's maliciously crafted tag or
keyword, it was possible to execute arbitary code as the user running
vim (CVE-2008-4101).

A vulnerability was found in certain versions of netrw.vim where it
would send FTP credentials stored for an FTP session to subsequent FTP
sessions to servers on different hosts, exposing FTP credentials to
remote hosts (CVE-2008-4677).

This update provides vim 7.2 (patchlevel 65) which corrects all of
these issues and introduces a number of new features and bug fixes.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the
Red Hat Security Response Team.

Vim (Visual editor IMproved) is an updated and improved version of the
vi editor.

Several input sanitization flaws were found in Vim's keyword and tag
handling. If Vim looked up a document's maliciously crafted tag or
keyword, it was possible to execute arbitrary code as the user running
Vim. (CVE-2008-4101)

Multiple security flaws were found in netrw.vim, the Vim plug-in
providing file reading and writing over the network. If a user opened
a specially crafted file or directory with the netrw plug-in, it could
result in arbitrary code execution as the user running Vim.
(CVE-2008-3076)

A security flaw was found in zip.vim, the Vim plug-in that handles ZIP
archive browsing. If a user opened a ZIP archive using the zip.vim
plug-in, it could result in arbitrary code execution as the user
running Vim. (CVE-2008-3075)

A security flaw was found in tar.vim, the Vim plug-in which handles
TAR archive browsing. If a user opened a TAR archive using the tar.vim
plug-in, it could result in arbitrary code execution as the user
runnin Vim. (CVE-2008-3074)

Several input sanitization flaws were found in various Vim system
functions. If a user opened a specially crafted file, it was possible
to execute arbitrary code as the user running Vim. (CVE-2008-2712)

Ulf Harnhammar, of Secunia Research, discovered a format string flaw
in Vim's help tag processor. If a user was tricked into executing the
'helptags' command on malicious data, arbitrary code could be executed
with the permissions of the user running Vim. (CVE-2007-2953)

All Vim users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches to correct these issues."

    descriptionSeveral vulnerabilities have been found in vim, an enhanced vi editor. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems : - CVE-2008-2712 Jan Minar discovered that vim did not properly sanitise inputs before invoking the execute or system functions inside vim scripts. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. - CVE-2008-3074 Jan Minar discovered that the tar plugin of vim did not properly sanitise the filenames in the tar archive or the name of the archive file itself, making it prone to arbitrary code execution. - CVE-2008-3075 Jan Minar discovered that the zip plugin of vim did not properly sanitise the filenames in the zip archive or the name of the archive file itself, making it prone to arbitrary code execution. - CVE-2008-3076 Jan Minar discovered that the netrw plugin of vim did not properly sanitise the filenames or directory names it is given. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. - CVE-2008-4101 Ben Schmidt discovered that vim did not properly escape characters when performing keyword or tag lookups. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

statementNot vulnerable. This issue did not affect the versions of the Vim packages, as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4, and 5. Note: This CVE is mentioned in the text of RHSA-2008:0580 (https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2008-0580.html), as it was originally used to track multiple issues. Issues that affected Vim packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 were later assigned separate CVE identifier - CVE-2008-6235. Neither of issues currently covered by CVE-2008-3076 (insufficient shell escaping in mz and mc commands) affected Vim packages shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
