Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
- Overflow Buffers Buffer Overflow attacks target improper or missing bounds checking on buffer operations, typically triggered by input injected by an attacker. As a consequence, an attacker is able to write past the boundaries of allocated buffer regions in memory, causing a program crash or potentially redirection of execution as per the attackers' choice.
- Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
- Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
- MIME Conversion An attacker exploits a weakness in the MIME conversion routine to cause a buffer overflow and gain control over the mail server machine. The MIME system is designed to allow various different information formats to be interpreted and sent via e-mail. Attack points exist when data are converted to MIME compatible format and back.

Kerberos v4 protocol support can be disabled by adding 'v4_mode=none' (without the quotes) to the '[kdcdefaults]' section of /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/kdc.conf. Jeff Altman of Secure Endpoints discovered a flaw in the RPC library as used by MIT Kerberos kadmind server. An unauthenticated remote attacker could use this flaw to crash kadmind or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected systems with certain resource limits configured and did not affect systems using default resource limits used by Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. (CVE-2008-0947) Red Hat would like to thank MIT for reporting these issues. Multiple memory management flaws were discovered in the GSSAPI library used by MIT Kerberos. These flaws could possibly result in use of already freed memory or an attempt to free already freed memory blocks (double-free flaw), possibly causing a crash or arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2007-5901, CVE-2007-5971) In addition to the security issues resolved above, the following bugs were also fixed : * delegated krb5 credentials were not properly stored when SPNEGO was the underlying mechanism during GSSAPI authentication. Consequently, applications attempting to copy delegated Kerberos 5 credentials into a credential cache received an 'Invalid credential was supplied' message rather than a copy of the delegated credentials. With this update, SPNEGO credentials can be properly searched, allowing applications to copy delegated credentials as expected. * applications can initiate context acceptance (via gss_accept_sec_context) without passing a ret_flags value that would indicate that credentials were delegated. A delegated credential handle should have been returned in such instances. This updated package adds a temp_ret_flag that stores the credential status in the event no other ret_flags value is passed by an application calling gss_accept_sec_context. * kpasswd did not fallback to TCP on receipt of certain errors, or when a packet was too big for UDP. This update corrects this. * when the libkrb5 password-routine generated a set-password or change-password request, incorrect sequence numbers were generated for all requests subsequent to the first request. This caused password change requests to fail if the primary server was unavailable. This updated package corrects this by saving the sequence number value after the AP-REQ data is built and restoring this value before the request is generated. * when a user's password expired, kinit would not prompt that user to change the password, instead simply informing the user their password had expired. This update corrects this behavior: kinit now prompts for a new password to be set when a password has expired. All krb5 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported fixes to address these vulnerabilities and fix these bugs." ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2007-5901" ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2007-5971" ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2008-0062" ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2008-0063" ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2008-0947" ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2008:0164" ); script_set_attribute(attribute:"solution", value:"Update the affected packages."); script_set_cvss_base_vector("CVSS2#AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C"); script_set_cvss_temporal_vector("CVSS2#E:U/RL:OF/RC:C"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"exploitability_ease", value:"No known exploits are available"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"exploit_available", value:"false"); script_cwe_id(119, 189, 399); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_type", value:"local"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:redhat:enterprise_linux:krb5-devel"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:redhat:enterprise_linux:krb5-libs"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:redhat:enterprise_linux:krb5-server"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:redhat:enterprise_linux:krb5-workstation"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:5"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:5.1"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"vuln_publication_date", value:"2007/12/05"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"patch_publication_date", value:"2008/03/18"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_publication_date", value:"2008/03/19"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"generated_plugin", value:"current"); script_end_attributes(); script_category(ACT_GATHER_INFO); script_copyright(english:"This script is Copyright (C) 2008-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof."); script_family(english:"Red Hat Local Security Checks"); script_dependencies("ssh_get_info.nasl"); script_require_keys("Host/local_checks_enabled", "Host/RedHat/release", "Host/RedHat/rpm-list", "Host/cpu"); exit(0); } include("audit.inc"); include("global_settings.inc"); include("misc_func.inc"); include("rpm.inc"); if (!get_kb_item("Host/local_checks_enabled")) audit(AUDIT_LOCAL_CHECKS_NOT_ENABLED); release = get_kb_item("Host/RedHat/release"); if (isnull(release) || "Red Hat" >!< release) audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "Red Hat"); os_ver = pregmatch(pattern: "Red Hat Enterprise Linux.*release ([0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?)", string:release); if (isnull(os_ver)) audit(AUDIT_UNKNOWN_APP_VER, "Red Hat"); os_ver = os_ver[1]; if (! preg(pattern:"^5([^0-9]|$)", string:os_ver)) audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "Red Hat 5.x", "Red Hat " + os_ver); if (!get_kb_item("Host/RedHat/rpm-list")) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_LIST_MISSING); cpu = get_kb_item("Host/cpu"); if (isnull(cpu)) audit(AUDIT_UNKNOWN_ARCH); if ("x86_64" >!< cpu && cpu !~ "^i[3-6]86$" && "s390" >!< cpu) audit(AUDIT_LOCAL_CHECKS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED, "Red Hat", cpu); yum_updateinfo = get_kb_item("Host/RedHat/yum-updateinfo"); if (!empty_or_null(yum_updateinfo)) { rhsa = "RHSA-2008:0164"; yum_report = redhat_generate_yum_updateinfo_report(rhsa:rhsa); if (!empty_or_null(yum_report)) { security_report_v4( port : 0, severity : SECURITY_HOLE, extra : yum_report ); exit(0); } else { audit_message = "affected by Red Hat security advisory " + rhsa; audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, audit_message); } } else { flag = 0; if (rpm_check(release:"RHEL5", reference:"krb5-devel-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"RHEL5", reference:"krb5-libs-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"RHEL5", cpu:"i386", reference:"krb5-server-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"RHEL5", cpu:"s390x", reference:"krb5-server-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"RHEL5", cpu:"x86_64", reference:"krb5-server-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"RHEL5", cpu:"i386", reference:"krb5-workstation-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"RHEL5", cpu:"s390x", reference:"krb5-workstation-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"RHEL5", cpu:"x86_64", reference:"krb5-workstation-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (flag) { security_report_v4( port : 0, severity : SECURITY_HOLE, extra : rpm_report_get() + redhat_report_package_caveat() ); exit(0); } else { tested = pkg_tests_get(); if (tested) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_NOT_AFFECTED, tested); else audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_NOT_INSTALLED, "krb5-devel / krb5-libs / krb5-server / krb5-workstation"); } }

Kerberos v4 protocol support can be disabled by adding 'v4_mode=none' (without the quotes) to the '[kdcdefaults]' section of /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/kdc.conf. Jeff Altman of Secure Endpoints discovered a flaw in the RPC library as used by MIT Kerberos kadmind server. An unauthenticated remote attacker could use this flaw to crash kadmind or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected systems with certain resource limits configured and did not affect systems using default resource limits used by Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. (CVE-2008-0947) Red Hat would like to thank MIT for reporting these issues. Multiple memory management flaws were discovered in the GSSAPI library used by MIT Kerberos. These flaws could possibly result in use of already freed memory or an attempt to free already freed memory blocks (double-free flaw), possibly causing a crash or arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2007-5901, CVE-2007-5971) In addition to the security issues resolved above, the following bugs were also fixed : * delegated krb5 credentials were not properly stored when SPNEGO was the underlying mechanism during GSSAPI authentication. Consequently, applications attempting to copy delegated Kerberos 5 credentials into a credential cache received an 'Invalid credential was supplied' message rather than a copy of the delegated credentials. With this update, SPNEGO credentials can be properly searched, allowing applications to copy delegated credentials as expected. * applications can initiate context acceptance (via gss_accept_sec_context) without passing a ret_flags value that would indicate that credentials were delegated. A delegated credential handle should have been returned in such instances. This updated package adds a temp_ret_flag that stores the credential status in the event no other ret_flags value is passed by an application calling gss_accept_sec_context. * kpasswd did not fallback to TCP on receipt of certain errors, or when a packet was too big for UDP. This update corrects this. * when the libkrb5 password-routine generated a set-password or change-password request, incorrect sequence numbers were generated for all requests subsequent to the first request. This caused password change requests to fail if the primary server was unavailable. This updated package corrects this by saving the sequence number value after the AP-REQ data is built and restoring this value before the request is generated. * when a user's password expired, kinit would not prompt that user to change the password, instead simply informing the user their password had expired. This update corrects this behavior: kinit now prompts for a new password to be set when a password has expired. All krb5 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported fixes to address these vulnerabilities and fix these bugs." ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/el-errata/2008-March/000547.html" ); script_set_attribute(attribute:"solution", value:"Update the affected krb5 packages."); script_set_cvss_base_vector("CVSS2#AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C"); script_set_cvss_temporal_vector("CVSS2#E:U/RL:OF/RC:C"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"exploitability_ease", value:"No known exploits are available"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"exploit_available", value:"false"); script_cwe_id(119, 189, 399); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_type", value:"local"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:oracle:linux:krb5-devel"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:oracle:linux:krb5-libs"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:oracle:linux:krb5-server"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:oracle:linux:krb5-workstation"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"cpe:/o:oracle:linux:5"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"vuln_publication_date", value:"2007/12/05"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"patch_publication_date", value:"2008/03/19"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_publication_date", value:"2013/07/12"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"generated_plugin", value:"current"); script_end_attributes(); script_category(ACT_GATHER_INFO); script_copyright(english:"This script is Copyright (C) 2013-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof."); script_family(english:"Oracle Linux Local Security Checks"); script_dependencies("ssh_get_info.nasl"); script_require_keys("Host/local_checks_enabled", "Host/OracleLinux", "Host/RedHat/release", "Host/RedHat/rpm-list"); exit(0); } include("audit.inc"); include("global_settings.inc"); include("rpm.inc"); if (!get_kb_item("Host/local_checks_enabled")) audit(AUDIT_LOCAL_CHECKS_NOT_ENABLED); if (!get_kb_item("Host/OracleLinux")) audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "Oracle Linux"); release = get_kb_item("Host/RedHat/release"); if (isnull(release) || !pregmatch(pattern: "Oracle (?:Linux Server|Enterprise Linux)", string:release)) audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "Oracle Linux"); os_ver = pregmatch(pattern: "Oracle (?:Linux Server|Enterprise Linux) .*release ([0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?)", string:release); if (isnull(os_ver)) audit(AUDIT_UNKNOWN_APP_VER, "Oracle Linux"); os_ver = os_ver[1]; if (! preg(pattern:"^5([^0-9]|$)", string:os_ver)) audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "Oracle Linux 5", "Oracle Linux " + os_ver); if (!get_kb_item("Host/RedHat/rpm-list")) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_LIST_MISSING); cpu = get_kb_item("Host/cpu"); if (isnull(cpu)) audit(AUDIT_UNKNOWN_ARCH); if ("x86_64" >!< cpu && "ia64" >!< cpu && cpu !~ "^i[3-6]86$") audit(AUDIT_LOCAL_CHECKS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED, "Oracle Linux", cpu); flag = 0; if (rpm_check(release:"EL5", reference:"krb5-devel-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"EL5", reference:"krb5-libs-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"EL5", reference:"krb5-server-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"EL5", reference:"krb5-workstation-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (flag) { if (report_verbosity > 0) security_hole(port:0, extra:rpm_report_get()); else security_hole(0); exit(0); } else { tested = pkg_tests_get(); if (tested) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_NOT_AFFECTED, tested); else audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_NOT_INSTALLED, "krb5-devel / krb5-libs / krb5-server / krb5-workstation"); }

Kerberos v4 protocol support can be disabled by adding 'v4_mode=none' (without the quotes) to the '[kdcdefaults]' section of /var/kerberos/krb5kdc/kdc.conf. Jeff Altman of Secure Endpoints discovered a flaw in the RPC library as used by MIT Kerberos kadmind server. An unauthenticated remote attacker could use this flaw to crash kadmind or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected systems with certain resource limits configured and did not affect systems using default resource limits used by Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. (CVE-2008-0947) Red Hat would like to thank MIT for reporting these issues. Multiple memory management flaws were discovered in the GSSAPI library used by MIT Kerberos. These flaws could possibly result in use of already freed memory or an attempt to free already freed memory blocks (double-free flaw), possibly causing a crash or arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2007-5901, CVE-2007-5971) In addition to the security issues resolved above, the following bugs were also fixed : * delegated krb5 credentials were not properly stored when SPNEGO was the underlying mechanism during GSSAPI authentication. Consequently, applications attempting to copy delegated Kerberos 5 credentials into a credential cache received an 'Invalid credential was supplied' message rather than a copy of the delegated credentials. With this update, SPNEGO credentials can be properly searched, allowing applications to copy delegated credentials as expected. * applications can initiate context acceptance (via gss_accept_sec_context) without passing a ret_flags value that would indicate that credentials were delegated. A delegated credential handle should have been returned in such instances. This updated package adds a temp_ret_flag that stores the credential status in the event no other ret_flags value is passed by an application calling gss_accept_sec_context. * kpasswd did not fallback to TCP on receipt of certain errors, or when a packet was too big for UDP. This update corrects this. * when the libkrb5 password-routine generated a set-password or change-password request, incorrect sequence numbers were generated for all requests subsequent to the first request. This caused password change requests to fail if the primary server was unavailable. This updated package corrects this by saving the sequence number value after the AP-REQ data is built and restoring this value before the request is generated. * when a user's password expired, kinit would not prompt that user to change the password, instead simply informing the user their password had expired. This update corrects this behavior: kinit now prompts for a new password to be set when a password has expired. All krb5 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported fixes to address these vulnerabilities and fix these bugs." ); # https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2008-March/014766.html script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"http://www.nessus.org/u?4b44b161" ); # https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2008-March/014767.html script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"http://www.nessus.org/u?055da6b6" ); script_set_attribute(attribute:"solution", value:"Update the affected krb5 packages."); script_set_cvss_base_vector("CVSS2#AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C"); script_set_cvss_temporal_vector("CVSS2#E:U/RL:OF/RC:C"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"exploitability_ease", value:"No known exploits are available"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"exploit_available", value:"false"); script_cwe_id(119, 189, 399); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_type", value:"local"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:centos:centos:krb5-devel"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:centos:centos:krb5-libs"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:centos:centos:krb5-server"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:centos:centos:krb5-workstation"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"cpe:/o:centos:centos:5"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"vuln_publication_date", value:"2007/12/05"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"patch_publication_date", value:"2008/03/18"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_publication_date", value:"2010/01/06"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"generated_plugin", value:"current"); script_end_attributes(); script_category(ACT_GATHER_INFO); script_copyright(english:"This script is Copyright (C) 2010-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof."); script_family(english:"CentOS Local Security Checks"); script_dependencies("ssh_get_info.nasl"); script_require_keys("Host/local_checks_enabled", "Host/CentOS/release", "Host/CentOS/rpm-list"); exit(0); } include("audit.inc"); include("global_settings.inc"); include("rpm.inc"); if (!get_kb_item("Host/local_checks_enabled")) audit(AUDIT_LOCAL_CHECKS_NOT_ENABLED); release = get_kb_item("Host/CentOS/release"); if (isnull(release) || "CentOS" >!< release) audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "CentOS"); os_ver = pregmatch(pattern: "CentOS(?: Linux)? release ([0-9]+)", string:release); if (isnull(os_ver)) audit(AUDIT_UNKNOWN_APP_VER, "CentOS"); os_ver = os_ver[1]; if (! preg(pattern:"^5([^0-9]|$)", string:os_ver)) audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "CentOS 5.x", "CentOS " + os_ver); if (!get_kb_item("Host/CentOS/rpm-list")) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_LIST_MISSING); cpu = get_kb_item("Host/cpu"); if (isnull(cpu)) audit(AUDIT_UNKNOWN_ARCH); if ("x86_64" >!< cpu && cpu !~ "^i[3-6]86$") audit(AUDIT_LOCAL_CHECKS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED, "CentOS", cpu); flag = 0; if (rpm_check(release:"CentOS-5", reference:"krb5-devel-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"CentOS-5", reference:"krb5-libs-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"CentOS-5", reference:"krb5-server-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (rpm_check(release:"CentOS-5", reference:"krb5-workstation-1.6.1-17.el5_1.1")) flag++; if (flag) { security_report_v4( port : 0, severity : SECURITY_HOLE, extra : rpm_report_get() ); exit(0); } else { tested = pkg_tests_get(); if (tested) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_NOT_AFFECTED, tested); else audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_NOT_INSTALLED, "krb5-devel / krb5-libs / krb5-server / krb5-workstation"); }

Jeff Altman (Secure Endpoints) discovered a buffer overflow in the RPC library server code, used in the kadmin server, caused when too many file descriptors are opened (CVE-2008-0947). Venustech AD-LAB discovered multiple vulnerabilities in the GSSAPI library: usage of a freed variable in the gss_indicate_mechs() function (CVE-2007-5901) and a double free() vulnerability in the gss_krb5int_make_seal_token_v3() function (CVE-2007-5971). Impact : The first two vulnerabilities can be exploited by a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the host running krb5kdc, compromise the Kerberos key database or cause a Denial of Service. These bugs can only be triggered when Kerberos 4 support is enabled. The RPC related vulnerability can be exploited by a remote unauthenticated attacker to crash kadmind, and theoretically execute arbitrary code with root privileges or cause database corruption. This bug can only be triggered in configurations that allow large numbers of open file descriptors in a process. The GSSAPI vulnerabilities could be exploited by a remote attacker to cause Denial of Service conditions or possibly execute arbitrary code.
