Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Accessing, Modifying or Executing Executable Files
    An attack of this type exploits a system's configuration that allows an attacker to either directly access an executable file, for example through shell access; or in a possible worst case allows an attacker to upload a file and then execute it. Web servers, ftp servers, and message oriented middleware systems which have many integration points are particularly vulnerable, because both the programmers and the administrators must be in synch regarding the interfaces and the correct privileges for each interface.
  • Leverage Executable Code in Non-Executable Files
    An attack of this type exploits a system's trust in configuration and resource files, when the executable loads the resource (such as an image file or configuration file) the attacker has modified the file to either execute malicious code directly or manipulate the target process (e.g. application server) to execute based on the malicious configuration parameters. Since systems are increasingly interrelated mashing up resources from local and remote sources the possibility of this attack occurring is high. The attack can be directed at a client system, such as causing buffer overrun through loading seemingly benign image files, as in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-028 where specially crafted JPEG files could cause a buffer overrun once loaded into the browser. Another example targets clients reading pdf files. In this case the attacker simply appends javascript to the end of a legitimate url for a pdf (http://www.gnucitizen.org/blog/danger-danger-danger/) http://path/to/pdf/file.pdf#whatever_name_you_want=javascript:your_code_here The client assumes that they are reading a pdf, but the attacker has modified the resource and loaded executable javascript into the client's browser process. The attack can also target server processes. The attacker edits the resource or configuration file, for example a web.xml file used to configure security permissions for a J2EE app server, adding role name "public" grants all users with the public role the ability to use the administration functionality. The server trusts its configuration file to be correct, but when they are manipulated, the attacker gains full control.
  • Blue Boxing
    This type of attack against older telephone switches and trunks has been around for decades. A tone is sent by an adversary to impersonate a supervisor signal which has the effect of rerouting or usurping command of the line. While the US infrastructure proper may not contain widespread vulnerabilities to this type of attack, many companies are connected globally through call centers and business process outsourcing. These international systems may be operated in countries which have not upgraded Telco infrastructure and so are vulnerable to Blue boxing. Blue boxing is a result of failure on the part of the system to enforce strong authorization for administrative functions. While the infrastructure is different than standard current applications like web applications, there are historical lessons to be learned to upgrade the access control for administrative functions.
  • Restful Privilege Elevation
    Rest uses standard HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permissions methods, but these are not necessarily correlated generally with back end programs. Strict interpretation of HTTP get methods means that these HTTP Get services should not be used to delete information on the server, but there is no access control mechanism to back up this logic. This means that unless the services are properly ACL'd and the application's service implementation are following these guidelines then an HTTP request can easily execute a delete or update on the server side. The attacker identifies a HTTP Get URL such as http://victimsite/updateOrder, which calls out to a program to update orders on a database or other resource. The URL is not idempotent so the request can be submitted multiple times by the attacker, additionally, the attacker may be able to exploit the URL published as a Get method that actually performs updates (instead of merely retrieving data). This may result in malicious or inadvertent altering of data on the server.
  • Target Programs with Elevated Privileges
    This attack targets programs running with elevated privileges. The attacker would try to leverage a bug in the running program and get arbitrary code to execute with elevated privileges. For instance an attacker would look for programs that write to the system directories or registry keys (such as HKLM, which stores a number of critical Windows environment variables). These programs are typically running with elevated privileges and have usually not been designed with security in mind. Such programs are excellent exploit targets because they yield lots of power when they break. The malicious user try to execute its code at the same level as a privileged system call.

    "The Mozilla Firefox browser was updated to version 3.0.5, fixing
    various security issues and stability problems.
    
    The following security issues were fixed :
    
    MFSA 2008-69 / CVE-2008-5513: Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4
    reported vulnerabilities in the session-restore feature by which
    content could be injected into an incorrect document storage location,
    including storage locations for other domains. An attacker could
    utilize these issues to violate the browser's same-origin policy and
    perform an XSS attack while SessionStore data is being restored.
    moz_bug_r_a4 also reported that one variant could be used by an
    attacker to run arbitrary JavaScript with chrome privileges.
    
    MFSA 2008-68 / CVE-2008-5512 / CVE-2008-5511: Mozilla security
    researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that an XBL binding, when attached to
    an unloaded document, can be used to violate the same-origin policy
    and execute arbitrary JavaScript within the context of a different
    website. moz_bug_r_a4 also reported two vulnerabilities by which page
    content can pollute XPCNativeWrappers and run arbitary JavaScript with
    chrome priviliges. Thunderbird shares the browser engine with Firefox
    and could be vulnerable if JavaScript were to be enabled in mail. This
    is not the default setting and we strongly discourage users from
    running JavaScript in mail. Workaround Disable JavaScript until a
    version containing these fixes can be installed.
    
    MFSA 2008-67 / CVE-2008-5510: Kojima Hajime reported that unlike
    literal null characters which were handled correctly, the escaped form
    '\0' was ignored by the CSS parser and treated as if it was not
    present in the CSS input string. This issue could potentially be used
    to bypass script sanitization routines in web applications. The
    severity of this issue was determined to be low.
    
    MFSA 2008-66 / CVE-2008-5508: Perl developer Chip Salzenberg reported
    that certain control characters, when placed at the beginning of a
    URL, would lead to incorrect parsing resulting in a malformed URL
    being output by the parser. IBM researchers Justin Schuh, Tom Cross,
    and Peter William also reported a related symptom as part of their
    research that resulted in MFSA 2008-37. There was no direct security
    impact from this issue and its effect was limited to the improper
    rendering of hyperlinks containing specific characters. The severity
    of this issue was determined to be low.
    
    MFSA 2008-65 / CVE-2008-5507: Google security researcher Chris Evans
    reported that a website could access a limited amount of data from a
    different domain by loading a same-domain JavaScript URL which
    redirects to an off-domain target resource containing data which is
    not parsable as JavaScript. Upon attempting to load the data as
    JavaScript a syntax error is generated that can reveal some of the
    file context via the window.onerror DOM API. This issue could be used
    by a malicious website to steal private data from users who are
    authenticated on the redirected website. How much data could be at
    risk would depend on the format of the data and how the JavaScript
    parser attempts to interpret it. For most files the amount of data
    that can be recovered would be limited to the first word or two. Some
    data files might allow deeper probing with repeated loads. Thunderbird
    shares the browser engine with Firefox and could be vulnerable if
    JavaScript were to be enabled in mail. This is not the default setting
    and we strongly discourage users from running JavaScript in mail.
    Workaround Disable JavaScript until a version containing these fixes
    can be installed.
    
    MFSA 2008-64 / CVE-2008-5506: Marius Schilder of Google Security
    reported that when a XMLHttpRequest is made to a same-origin resource
    which 302 redirects to a resource in a different domain, the response
    from the cross-domain resource is readable by the site issuing the
    XHR. Cookies marked HttpOnly were not readable, but other potentially
    sensitive data could be revealed in the XHR response including URL
    parameters and content in the response body. Thunderbird shares the
    browser engine with Firefox and could be vulnerable if JavaScript were
    to be enabled in mail. This is not the default setting and we strongly
    discourage users from running JavaScript in mail. Workaround Disable
    JavaScript until a version containing these fixes can be installed.
    
    MFSA 2008-63 / CVE-2008-5505: Security researcher Hish reported that
    the persist attribute in XUL elements can be used to store cookie-like
    information on a user's computer which could later be read by a
    website. This creates a privacy issue for users who have a
    non-standard cookie preference and wish to prevent sites from setting
    cookies on their machine. Even with cookies turned off, this issue
    could be used by a website to write persistent data in a user's
    browser and track the user across browsing sessions. Additionally,
    this issue could allow a website to bypass the limits normally placed
    on cookie size and number.
    
    MFSA 2008-60 / CVE-2008-5502 / CVE-2008-5501 / CVE-2008-5500: Mozilla
    developers identified and fixed several stability bugs in the browser
    engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these
    crashes showed evidence of memory corruption under certain
    circumstances and we presume that with enough effort at least some of
    these could be exploited to run arbitrary code. Thunderbird shares the
    browser engine with Firefox and could be vulnerable if JavaScript were
    to be enabled in mail. This is not the default setting and we strongly
    discourage users from running JavaScript in mail. Without further
    investigation we cannot rule out the possibility that for some of
    these an attacker might be able to prepare memory for exploitation
    through some means other than JavaScript such as large images.
    Workaround Disable JavaScript until a version containing these fixes
    can be installed."

    Marius Schilder discovered that Firefox did not properly handle
    redirects to an outside domain when an XMLHttpRequest was made to a
    same-origin resource. It's possible that sensitive information could
    be revealed in the XMLHttpRequest response. (CVE-2008-5506)
    
    Chris Evans discovered that Firefox did not properly protect a user's
    data when accessing a same-domain JavaScript URL that is redirected to
    an unparsable JavaScript off-site resource. If a user were tricked
    into opening a malicious website, an attacker may be able to steal a
    limited amount of private data. (CVE-2008-5507)
    
    Chip Salzenberg, Justin Schuh, Tom Cross, and Peter William discovered
    Firefox did not properly parse URLs when processing certain control
    characters. (CVE-2008-5508)
    
    Kojima Hajime discovered that Firefox did not properly handle an
    escaped null character. An attacker may be able to exploit this flaw
    to bypass script sanitization. (CVE-2008-5510)
    
    Several flaws were discovered in the JavaScript engine. If a user were
    tricked into opening a malicious website, an attacker could exploit
    this to execute arbitrary JavaScript code within the context of
    another website or with chrome privileges. (CVE-2008-5511,
    CVE-2008-5512)
    
    Flaws were discovered in the session-restore feature of Firefox. If a
    user were tricked into opening a malicious website, an attacker could
    exploit this to perform cross-site scripting attacks or execute
    arbitrary JavaScript code with chrome privileges. (CVE-2008-5513).

    This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the
    Red Hat Security Response Team.
    
    Mozilla Firefox is an open source Web browser.
    
    Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A
    web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or,
    potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Firefox.
    (CVE-2008-5500, CVE-2008-5501, CVE-2008-5502, CVE-2008-5511,
    CVE-2008-5512, CVE-2008-5513)
    
    Several flaws were found in the way malformed content was processed. A
    website containing specially crafted content could potentially trick a
    Firefox user into surrendering sensitive information. (CVE-2008-5506,
    CVE-2008-5507)
    
    A flaw was found in the way Firefox stored attributes in XML User
    Interface Language (XUL) elements. A website could use this flaw to
    track users across browser sessions, even if users did not allow the
    site to store cookies in the victim's browser. (CVE-2008-5505)
    
    A flaw was found in the way malformed URLs were processed by Firefox.
    This flaw could prevent various URL sanitization mechanisms from
    properly parsing a malicious URL. (CVE-2008-5508)
    
    A flaw was found in Firefox's CSS parser. A malicious web page could
    inject NULL characters into a CSS input string, possibly bypassing an
    application's script sanitization routines. (CVE-2008-5510)
    
    For technical details regarding these flaws, please see the Mozilla
    security advisories for Firefox 3.0.5. You can find a link to the
    Mozilla advisories in the References section.
    
    Note: after the errata packages are installed, Firefox must be
    restarted for the update to take effect.
    
    All firefox users should upgrade to these updated packages, which
    contain backported patches that correct these issues."

    This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the
    Red Hat Security Response Team.
    
    Mozilla Firefox is an open source Web browser.
    
    Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A
    web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or,
    potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Firefox.
    (CVE-2008-5500, CVE-2008-5501, CVE-2008-5502, CVE-2008-5511,
    CVE-2008-5512, CVE-2008-5513)
    
    Several flaws were found in the way malformed content was processed. A
    website containing specially crafted content could potentially trick a
    Firefox user into surrendering sensitive information. (CVE-2008-5506,
    CVE-2008-5507)
    
    A flaw was found in the way Firefox stored attributes in XML User
    Interface Language (XUL) elements. A website could use this flaw to
    track users across browser sessions, even if users did not allow the
    site to store cookies in the victim's browser. (CVE-2008-5505)
    
    A flaw was found in the way malformed URLs were processed by Firefox.
    This flaw could prevent various URL sanitization mechanisms from
    properly parsing a malicious URL. (CVE-2008-5508)
    
    A flaw was found in Firefox's CSS parser. A malicious web page could
    inject NULL characters into a CSS input string, possibly bypassing an
    application's script sanitization routines. (CVE-2008-5510)
    
    For technical details regarding these flaws, please see the Mozilla
    security advisories for Firefox 3.0.5. You can find a link to the
    Mozilla advisories in the References section.
    
    Note: after the errata packages are installed, Firefox must be
    restarted for the update to take effect.
    
    All firefox users should upgrade to these updated packages, which
    contain backported patches that correct these issues."
