TryObjectEvent arbitrary code execution
From Glitch City Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchTryObjectEvent arbitrary code execution is an engine vulnerability or glitch, known to be in Pokémon Crystal.[1]
When this function is called, if the carry flag is not set, it is possible for the game to cause arbitrary code execution with bc as the pointer.
The following is the code that causes it in the Pokémon Crystal disassembly. It seems the fix is to add a pop bc instruction.
-; Bug: If IsInArray returns nc, data at bc will be executed as code.
push bc ld de, 3 ld hl, .pointers call IsInArray jr nc, .nope pop bc
inc hl ld a, [hli] ld h, [hl] ld l, a jp hl
.nope
- ; pop bc + pop bc
xor a ret
More research is needed for this article.
