In this guest blog from Pwn2Own winner Cody Gallagher, he details CVE-2024-21115 – an Out-of-Bounds (OOB) Write that occurs in Oracle VirtualBox that can be leveraged for privilege escalation. This bug was recently patched by Oracle in April. Cody has graciously provided this detailed write-up of the vulnerability and how he exploited it at the contest.
The core bug used for this escape is a relative bit clear on the heap from the VGA device. The bug is in function vgaR3DrawBlank, which is called from vgaR3UpdateDisplay. The bug can be triggered with a single core and 32MB of VRAM,
