Question

Now try overwriting arguments. Can you get the flag from this program? You can find it in /problems/overflow-2_0_f4d7b52433d7aa96e72a63fdd5dcc9cc on the shell server. Source.

Hint

GDB can print the stack after you send arguments

Source code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>

#define BUFSIZE 176
#define FLAGSIZE 64

void flag(unsigned int arg1, unsigned int arg2) {
  char buf[FLAGSIZE];
  FILE *f = fopen("flag.txt","r");
  if (f == NULL) {
    printf("Flag File is Missing. Problem is Misconfigured, please contact an Admin if you are running this on the shell server.\n");
    exit(0);
  }

  fgets(buf,FLAGSIZE,f);
  if (arg1 != 0xDEADBEEF)
    return;
  if (arg2 != 0xC0DED00D)
    return;
  printf(buf);
}

void vuln(){
  char buf[BUFSIZE];
  gets(buf);
  puts(buf);
}

int main(int argc, char **argv){

  setvbuf(stdout, NULL, _IONBF, 0);
  
  gid_t gid = getegid();
  setresgid(gid, gid, gid);

  puts("Please enter your string: ");
  vuln();
  return 0;
}
