GHSA-FM35-JGG3-3GRX
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-03-18 17:54 – Updated: 2022-03-18 17:54Impact
A malicious client may send a MovePlayerPacket to the server whose position or rotation contains NaN or INF. Since neither the server nor vanilla client handles this properly, a number of interesting side effects come into play.
- The server may crash in various ways if this exploit is used, because some mathematical operations on NaN/INF generate PHP warnings, which are converted into exceptions.
- Clients may not be able to see other clients who have a NaN/INF rotation.
- Clients may also crash in such cases.
Patches
A patch for this was included in the 3.18.1 release: https://github.com/pmmp/PocketMine-MP/commit/fb20bb38327b4c08ee3976640cd0dd547388a638
Workarounds
Workarounds could be implemented as plugins using DataPacketReceiveEvent to block any inbound movement packets containing bogus values.
