1) Introduction

Raydium is a complete open source game engine with multiplayer support
and many other important and interesting features.

A] buffer-overflow in raydium_log and raydium_console_line_add

The logging function of Raydium is very used in all the engine.
For example everytime a client tries to join the server it logs the
event in the console:

raydium_log("network: client %i connected as %s"/,inet_ntoa(from->sin_addr)/,n,name);

This useful function is affected by a buffer-overflow bug where the
local buffer str of 255 (RAYDIUM_MAX_NAME_LEN) bytes is filled using
the unsecure sprintf function.
The size of the input packet is 512 (RAYDIUM_NETWORK_PACKET_SIZE)
bytes of which 508 are available for the text to use for exploiting the
vulnerability.

From raydium/log.c:

// need to be secured
void raydium_log(char *format, …)
{
char str[RAYDIUM_MAX_NAME_LEN];
va_list argptr;

va_start(argptr,format);
vsprintf(str,format,argptr);
va_end(argptr);

printf("Raydium: %s\n",str);
if(raydium_log_file) fprintf(raydium_log_file,"%s\n",str);
raydium_console_line_add(str);
}

Similar thing for raydium_console_line_add:

From raydium/console.c:

// need to secure this one too
void raydium_console_line_add(char *format, …)
{
char str[RAYDIUM_MAX_NAME_LEN];
va_list argptr;
va_start(argptr,format);
vsprintf(str,format,argptr);
va_end(argptr);

raydium_console_line_last++;
if(raydium_console_line_last>=RAYDIUM_CONSOLE_MAX_LINES)
raydium_console_line_last=0;

strcpy(raydium_console_lines[raydium_console_line_last],str);
}

---

B] format string in raydium_log

The same raydium_log function described above is affected also by a
format string vulnerability caused by the calling of
raydium_console_line_add passing directly the text string without the
required format argument:

raydium_console_line_add(str);

---

C] NULL function pointer in raydium_network_netcall_exec

The function raydium_network_netcall_exec is called by
raydium_network_read for selecting the specific function to use for
handling the type of packet received.
The raydium_network_netcall_type array is initialized with the type -1
so if the attacker uses the type 0xff the function will try to call
raydium_network_netcall_func which is still initialized with a NULL
pointer.
The effect is the crash of the program.

>From raydium/network.c:

…
for(i=0;i<RAYDIUM_NETWORK_MAX_NETCALLS;i++)
{
raydium_network_netcall_type[i]=-1;
raydium_network_netcall_func[i]=0;
raydium_network_netcall_tcp[i]=0;
}
…

void raydium_network_netcall_exec(int type,char *buff)
{
char tmpbuff[RAYDIUM_NETWORK_PACKET_SIZE];
int i;
void (f)(int, char);

for(i=0;i<RAYDIUM_NETWORK_MAX_NETCALLS;i++)
if(raydium_network_netcall_type[i]==type)
{
memcpy(tmpbuff,buff,RAYDIUM_NETWORK_PACKET_SIZE);
f=raydium_network_netcall_func[i];
f(type,tmpbuff);
}
}

---

D] buffer-overflow and invalid memory access in raydium_network_read

The function raydium_network_read is affectd by some buffer-overflow
bugs which happen during the writing of some global variables
allocated in an array of 32 (RAYDIUM_NETWORK_MAX_SERVERS) elements.
The same function is also affected by an invalid memory access could
happen when the server sends a packet to the client containing an 8
bit id bigger than 8 (RAYDIUM_NETWORK_MAX_CLIENTS).
Both the bugs can be exploited only versus the clients.

>From raydium/network.c:

signed char raydium_network_read(int *id, signed char *type, char *buff)
…
strcpy(raydium_network_server_list[slot].name,name);
…
strcpy(raydium_network_server_list[slot].info,info);
…
i=buff[RAYDIUM_NETWORK_PACKET_OFFSET];
strcpy(raydium_network_name[i],buff+RAYDIUM_NETWORK_PACKET_OFFSET+1);
…
