ESP crashes when a UDP packet is sent to port used by ArduinoOTA #3912

mkillewald · 2017-12-05T08:50:04Z

Basic Infos

Hardware

Hardware: ESP-12
Core Version: 2.4.0-rc2

Description

ESP will crash and reboot when ArduinoOTA is enabled and a udp packet of any size is sent to the port used by ArduinoOTA. In fact, even just a nmap scan of the port will cause a crash (ex: nmap -sU -p 8266 192.168.1.212)

Settings in IDE

Module: WeMos D1 R2 and mini
Flash Size: 4M (3M SPIFFS)
CPU Frequency: 80Mhz

Although I do not know how ArduinoOTA is supposed to work, I can reproduce this issue by sending a short packet using echo -n ABCDEFGH > /dev/udp/192.168.137.229/8266.

yoursunny · 2018-01-04T02:17:46Z

Another packet to trigger a crash is:

echo -n 12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 > /dev/udp/192.168.137.229/8266

I say "appears to be" because the logic in ArduinoOTAClass:parseInt has a buffer overflow vulnerability and is overwriting part of the stack.

fixes esp8266#3912

yoursunny · 2018-01-04T02:35:16Z

#4086 has fixes for both bad packets.

mkillewald · 2018-01-04T03:06:57Z

Awesome. I will try it as soon as I can. Thank you!

devyte · 2018-01-04T03:15:47Z

Already merged after review. Please report if it fixes your issue.

mkillewald · 2018-01-04T07:16:35Z

Ok so good news and bad news. While the changes @yoursunny made did stop the ESP from crashing, it seems that they also broke OTA as I get [ERROR]: No Answer when trying to upload via OTA using the example sketch.

I upgraded from 2.4.0-rc2 to 2.4.0 before applying the changes to ArduinoOTA.cpp. If I roll back the changes to ArduinoOTA.cpp, uploads via OTA again work but the crash condition also still occurs.

mkillewald · 2018-01-04T16:49:29Z

Had a bit more time to play around with it this morning. If I keep the changes @yoursunny made to readStringUntil() but roll back the changes made to parseInt() everything is good. No more crash and OTA updates are working with the example sketch. Sorry, I'm kinda new to all of this. Should I send a new pull request, or should @yoursunny resubmit?

yoursunny · 2018-01-04T16:55:35Z

If you rollback parseInt there will be crash upon receiving a packet with a long string of digits.

echo -n 12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 > /dev/udp/192.168.137.229/8266

Please try changing both index++ to index. If it works, you may submit PR.

mkillewald · 2018-01-04T17:30:36Z

That did it! No crash and OTA updates are working. PR #4092 submitted.
