Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Authentication Abuse
    An attacker obtains unauthorized access to an application, service or device either through knowledge of the inherent weaknesses of an authentication mechanism, or by exploiting a flaw in the authentication scheme's implementation. In such an attack an authentication mechanism is functioning but a carefully controlled sequence of events causes the mechanism to grant access to the attacker. This attack may exploit assumptions made by the target's authentication procedures, such as assumptions regarding trust relationships or assumptions regarding the generation of secret values. This attack differs from Authentication Bypass attacks in that Authentication Abuse allows the attacker to be certified as a valid user through illegitimate means, while Authentication Bypass allows the user to access protected material without ever being certified as an authenticated user. This attack does not rely on prior sessions established by successfully authenticating users, as relied upon for the "Exploitation of Session Variables, Resource IDs and other Trusted Credentials" attack patterns.
  • Exploiting Trust in Client (aka Make the Client Invisible)
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities in client/server communication channel authentication and data integrity. It leverages the implicit trust a server places in the client, or more importantly, that which the server believes is the client. An attacker executes this type of attack by placing themselves in the communication channel between client and server such that communication directly to the server is possible where the server believes it is communicating only with a valid client. There are numerous variations of this type of attack.
  • Utilizing REST's Trust in the System Resource to Register Man in the Middle
    This attack utilizes a REST(REpresentational State Transfer)-style applications' trust in the system resources and environment to place man in the middle once SSL is terminated. Rest applications premise is that they leverage existing infrastructure to deliver web services functionality. An example of this is a Rest application that uses HTTP Get methods and receives a HTTP response with an XML document. These Rest style web services are deployed on existing infrastructure such as Apache and IIS web servers with no SOAP stack required. Unfortunately from a security standpoint, there frequently is no interoperable identity security mechanism deployed, so Rest developers often fall back to SSL to deliver security. In large data centers, SSL is typically terminated at the edge of the network - at the firewall, load balancer, or router. Once the SSL is terminated the HTTP request is in the clear (unless developers have hashed or encrypted the values, but this is rare). The attacker can utilize a sniffer such as Wireshark to snapshot the credentials, such as username and password that are passed in the clear once SSL is terminated. Once the attacker gathers these credentials, they can submit requests to the web service provider just as authorized user do. There is not typically an authentication on the client side, beyond what is passed in the request itself so once this is compromised, then this is generally sufficient to compromise the service's authentication scheme.
  • Man in the Middle Attack
    This type of attack targets the communication between two components (typically client and server). The attacker places himself in the communication channel between the two components. Whenever one component attempts to communicate with the other (data flow, authentication challenges, etc.), the data first goes to the attacker, who has the opportunity to observe or alter it, and it is then passed on to the other component as if it was never intercepted. This interposition is transparent leaving the two compromised components unaware of the potential corruption or leakage of their communications. The potential for Man-in-the-Middle attacks yields an implicit lack of trust in communication or identify between two components.

    descriptionUpdated pam_krb5 packages that fix one security issue and various bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. The pam_krb5 module allows Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) aware applications to use Kerberos to verify user identities by obtaining user credentials at log in time. A flaw was found in pam_krb5. In some non-default configurations (specifically, those where pam_krb5 would be the first module to prompt for a password), the text of the password prompt varied based on whether or not the username provided was a username known to the system. A remote attacker could use this flaw to recognize valid usernames, which would aid a dictionary-based password guess attack. (CVE-2009-1384) This update also fixes the following bugs : * certain applications which do not properly implement PAM conversations may fail to authenticate users whose passwords have expired and must be changed, or may succeed without forcing the user

    The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low
    security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
    score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the
    CVE link in the References section.
    
    The pam_krb5 module allows Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM)
    aware applications to use Kerberos to verify user identities by
    obtaining user credentials at log in time.
    
    A flaw was found in pam_krb5. In some non-default configurations
    (specifically, those where pam_krb5 would be the first module to
    prompt for a password), the text of the password prompt varied based
    on whether or not the username provided was a username known to the
    system. A remote attacker could use this flaw to recognize valid
    usernames, which would aid a dictionary-based password guess attack.
    (CVE-2009-1384)
    
    This update also fixes the following bugs :
    
    * certain applications which do not properly implement PAM
    conversations may fail to authenticate users whose passwords have
    expired and must be changed, or may succeed without forcing the user's
    password to be changed. This bug is triggered by a previously-applied
    fix to pam_krb5 which makes it comply more closely to PAM
    specifications. If an application misbehaves, enabling the
    'chpw_prompt' option for its service should restore the old behavior.
    (BZ#509092)
    
    * pam_krb5 does not allow the user to change an expired password in
    cases where the Key Distribution Center (KDC) is configured to refuse
    attempts to obtain forwardable password-changing credentials. This
    update fixes this issue. (BZ#489015)
    
    * failure to verify TGT because of wrong keytab handling. (BZ#450776)

    b. ESXi userworld update for ntp
    
       The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to synchronize the time of
       a computer client or server to another server or reference time
       source.
    
       A vulnerability in ntpd could allow a remote attacker to cause a
       denial of service (CPU and bandwidth consumption) by using
       MODE_PRIVATE to send a spoofed (1) request or (2) response packet
       that triggers a continuous exchange of MODE_PRIVATE error responses
       between two NTP daemons.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2009-3563 to this issue.
    
    c. Service Console package openssl updated to 0.9.8e-12.el5_4.1
    
       OpenSSL is a toolkit implementing SSL v2/v3 and TLS protocols with
       full-strength cryptography world-wide.
    
       A memory leak in the zlib could allow a remote attacker to cause a
       denial of service (memory consumption) via vectors that trigger
       incorrect calls to the CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data function.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2009-4355 to this issue.
    
       A vulnerability was discovered which may allow remote attackers to
       spoof certificates by using MD2 design flaws to generate a hash
       collision in less than brute-force time. NOTE: the scope of this
       issue is currently limited because the amount of computation
       required is still large.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2009-2409 to this issue.
    
       This update also includes security fixes that were first addressed
       in version openssl-0.9.8e-12.el5.i386.rpm.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the names CVE-2009-0590, CVE-2009-1377, CVE-2009-1378,
       CVE-2009-1379, CVE-2009-1386 and CVE-2009-1387 to these issues.
    
    d. Service Console update for krb5 to 1.6.1-36.el5_4.1 and pam_krb5 to
       2.2.14-15.
    
       Kerberos is a network authentication protocol. It is designed to
       provide strong authentication for client/server applications by
       using secret-key cryptography.
    
       Multiple integer underflows in the AES and RC4 functionality in the
       crypto library could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of
       service (daemon crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code by
       providing ciphertext with a length that is too short to be valid.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2009-4212 to this issue.
    
       The service console package for pam_krb5 is updated to version
       pam_krb5-2.2.14-15. This update fixes a flaw found in pam_krb5. In
       some non-default configurations (specifically, where pam_krb5 would
       be the first module to prompt for a password), a remote attacker
       could use this flaw to recognize valid usernames, which would aid a
       dictionary-based password guess attack.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2009-1384 to this issue.
    
    e. Service Console package bind updated to 9.3.6-4.P1.el5_4.2
    
       BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Daemon) is by far the most widely used
       Domain Name System (DNS) software on the Internet.
    
       A vulnerability was discovered which could allow remote attacker to
       add the Authenticated Data (AD) flag to a forged NXDOMAIN response
       for an existing domain.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2010-0097 to this issue.
    
       A vulnerability was discovered which could allow remote attackers
       to conduct DNS cache poisoning attacks by receiving a recursive
       client query and sending a response that contains CNAME or DNAME
       records, which do not have the intended validation before caching.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2010-0290 to this issue.
    
       A vulnerability was found in the way that bind handles out-of-
       bailiwick data accompanying a secure response without re-fetching
       from the original source, which could allow remote attackers to
       have an unspecified impact via a crafted response.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2010-0382 to this issue.
    
       NOTE: ESX does not use the BIND name service daemon by default.
    
    f. Service Console package gcc updated to 3.2.3-60
    
       The GNU Compiler Collection includes front ends for C, C++,
       Objective-C, Fortran, Java, and Ada, as well as libraries for these
       languages
    
       GNU Libtool's ltdl.c attempts to open .la library files in the
       current working directory.  This could allow a local user to gain
       privileges via a Trojan horse file.  The GNU C Compiler collection
       (gcc) provided in ESX contains a statically linked version of the
       vulnerable code, and is being replaced.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2009-3736 to this issue.
    
    g. Service Console package gzip update to 1.3.3-15.rhel3
    
       gzip is a software application used for file compression
    
       An integer underflow in gzip's unlzw function on 64-bit platforms
       may allow a remote attacker to trigger an array index error
       leading to a denial of service (application crash) or possibly
       execute arbitrary code via a crafted LZW compressed file.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2010-0001 to this issue.
    
    h. Service Console package sudo updated to 1.6.9p17-6.el5_4
    
       Sudo (su 'do') allows a system administrator to delegate authority
       to give certain users (or groups of users) the ability to run some
       (or all) commands as root or another user while providing an audit
       trail of the commands and their arguments.
    
       When a pseudo-command is enabled, sudo permits a match between the
       name of the pseudo-command and the name of an executable file in an
       arbitrary directory, which allows local users to gain privileges
       via a crafted executable file.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2010-0426 to this issue.
    
       When the runas_default option is used, sudo does not properly set
       group memberships, which allows local users to gain privileges via
       a sudo command.
    
       The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org)
       has assigned the name CVE-2010-0427 to this issue."

    descriptionA flaw was found in pam_krb5. In some non-default configurations (specifically, those where pam_krb5 would be the first module to prompt for a password), the text of the password prompt varied based on whether or not the username provided was a username known to the system. A remote attacker could use this flaw to recognize valid usernames, which would aid a dictionary-based password guess attack. (CVE-2009-1384) This update also fixes the following bugs : - certain applications which do not properly implement PAM conversations may fail to authenticate users whose passwords have expired and must be changed, or may succeed without forcing the user
