| An exploitable integer buffer overflow exists in the LoadImage API of the USER32 Lib. This function loads an icon, a cursor or a bitmap and then try to proceed the image. If an attacker sends a specially crafter bmp, cur, ico or ani file within an HTML page or in an Email, it is then possible to run arbitrary code on the affected system. |

When the LoadImage API try to procees an image, it directly uses the size field in the image file and then add 4. So if we set the size of image between 0xfffffffc-0xffffffff, an integer buffer overflow occurs.
The function defines:
HANDLE LoadImage(
HINSTANCE hinst, // handle of the instance containing the image
LPCTSTR lpszName, // name or identifier of the image
UINT uType, // type of image
int cxDesired, // desired width
int cyDesired, // desired height
UINT fuLoad // load flags
);
lpszName is the handle to the image to load, uType specifies the type of image to be loaded. This parameter can be one of the following values:
IMAGE_BITMAP Loads a bitmap.
IMAGE_CURSOR Loads a cursor.
IMAGE_ICON Loads an icon.
When LoadImage API try to parse the bmp, cur, ico, ani file format, it doesn't implement any check on the size field and add 4. Look at the code below:
When ANI or CUR is in question:
.text:77D56178 mov eax, [ebx+8] //Direct read our size here:P
.text:77D5617B mov [ebp+dwResSize], eax
.text:77D5617E jnz short loc_77D56184
.text:77D56180 add [ebp+dwResSize], 4 //add 4 int overflow...
.text:77D56184
.text:77D56184 loc_77D56184: ; CODE XREF: sub_77D5608F+EF#j
.text:77D56184 push [ebp+dwResSize] //allocate a wrong size
.text:77D56187 push 0
.text:77D56189 push dword_77D5F1A0
.text:77D5618F call ds:RtlAllocateHeap
Then use the fake size for memmov leads to the heap overflow:
.text:77D561A9 mov ecx, [ebx+8]
.text:77D561AC mov esi, [ebx+0Ch]
.text:77D561AF add esi, [ebp+arg_0]
.text:77D561B2 mov edx, ecx
.text:77D561B4 shr ecx, 2
.text:77D561B7 mov edi, eax
.text:77D561B9 rep movsd
.text:77D561BB mov ecx, edx
.text:77D561BD and ecx, 3
.text:77D561C0 rep movsb
