Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- 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.
- Manipulating User-Controlled Variables This attack targets user controlled variables (DEBUG=1, PHP Globals, and So Forth). An attacker can override environment variables leveraging user-supplied, untrusted query variables directly used on the application server without any data sanitization. In extreme cases, the attacker can change variables controlling the business logic of the application. For instance, in languages like PHP, a number of poorly set default configurations may allow the user to override variables.

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. MFSA 2010-02 / CVE-2010-0160: Security researcher Orlando Barrera II reported via TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative that Mozilla's implementation of Web Workers contained an error in its handling of array data types when processing posted messages. This error could be used by an attacker to corrupt heap memory and crash the browser, potentially running arbitrary code on a victim's computer. MFSA 2010-03 / CVE-2009-1571: Security researcher Alin Rad Pop of Secunia Research reported that the HTML parser incorrectly freed used memory when insufficient space was available to process remaining input. Under such circumstances, memory occupied by in-use objects was freed and could later be filled with attacker-controlled text. These conditions could result in the execution or arbitrary code if methods on the freed objects were subsequently called. MFSA 2010-04 / CVE-2009-3988: Security researcher Hidetake Jo of Microsoft Vulnerability Research reported that the properties set on an object passed to showModalDialog were readable by the document contained in the dialog, even when the document was from a different domain. This is a violation of the same-origin policy and could result in a website running untrusted JavaScript if it assumed the dialogArguments could not be initialized by another site. An anonymous security researcher, via TippingPoint's Zero Day Initiative, also independently reported this issue to Mozilla. MFSA 2010-05 / CVE-2010-0162: Mozilla security researcher Georgi Guninski reported that when a SVG document which is served with Content-Type: application/octet-stream is embedded into another document via an <embed> tag with type='image/svg+xml', the Content-Type is ignored and the SVG document is processed normally. A website which allows arbitrary binary data to be uploaded but which relies on Content-Type: application/octet-stream to prevent script execution could have such protection bypassed. An attacker could upload a SVG document containing JavaScript as a binary file to a website, embed the SVG document into a malicous page on another site, and gain access to the script environment from the SVG-serving site, bypassing the same-origin policy." ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"see_also", value:"https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=576969" ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"solution", value:"Update the affected MozillaFirefox packages." ); script_set_cvss_base_vector("CVSS2#AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C"); script_cwe_id(79, 94, 264, 399); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_type", value:"local"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:MozillaFirefox"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:MozillaFirefox-translations"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:mozilla-xulrunner190"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:mozilla-xulrunner190-32bit"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:mozilla-xulrunner190-devel"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs-32bit"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:mozilla-xulrunner190-translations"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"p-cpe:/a:novell:opensuse:mozilla-xulrunner190-translations-32bit"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"cpe", value:"cpe:/o:novell:opensuse:11.0"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"patch_publication_date", value:"2010/02/23"); script_set_attribute(attribute:"plugin_publication_date", value:"2010/02/25"); script_end_attributes(); script_category(ACT_GATHER_INFO); script_copyright(english:"This script is Copyright (C) 2010-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc."); script_family(english:"SuSE Local Security Checks"); script_dependencies("ssh_get_info.nasl"); script_require_keys("Host/local_checks_enabled", "Host/SuSE/release", "Host/SuSE/rpm-list", "Host/cpu"); 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/SuSE/release"); if (isnull(release) || release =~ "^(SLED|SLES)") audit(AUDIT_OS_NOT, "openSUSE"); if (release !~ "^(SUSE11\.0)$") audit(AUDIT_OS_RELEASE_NOT, "openSUSE", "11.0", release); if (!get_kb_item("Host/SuSE/rpm-list")) audit(AUDIT_PACKAGE_LIST_MISSING); ourarch = get_kb_item("Host/cpu"); if (!ourarch) audit(AUDIT_UNKNOWN_ARCH); if (ourarch !~ "^(i586|i686|x86_64)$") audit(AUDIT_ARCH_NOT, "i586 / i686 / x86_64", ourarch); flag = 0; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", reference:"MozillaFirefox-3.0.18-0.1") ) flag++; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", reference:"MozillaFirefox-translations-3.0.18-0.1") ) flag++; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", reference:"mozilla-xulrunner190-1.9.0.18-0.1") ) flag++; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", reference:"mozilla-xulrunner190-devel-1.9.0.18-0.1") ) flag++; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", reference:"mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs-1.9.0.18-0.1") ) flag++; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", reference:"mozilla-xulrunner190-translations-1.9.0.18-0.1") ) flag++; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", cpu:"x86_64", reference:"mozilla-xulrunner190-32bit-1.9.0.18-0.1") ) flag++; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", cpu:"x86_64", reference:"mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs-32bit-1.9.0.18-0.1") ) flag++; if ( rpm_check(release:"SUSE11.0", cpu:"x86_64", reference:"mozilla-xulrunner190-translations-32bit-1.9.0.18-0.1") ) 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, "MozillaFirefox"); }NASL family CentOS Local Security Checks NASL id CENTOS_RHSA-2010-0154.NASL description An updated thunderbird package that fixes several security issues is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.

Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details. Impact : A remote attacker could entice a user to view a specially crafted web page or email, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able to perform Man-in-the-Middle attacks, obtain sensitive information, bypass restrictions and protection mechanisms, force file downloads, conduct XML injection attacks, conduct XSS attacks, bypass the Same Origin Policy, spoof URL’s for phishing attacks, trigger a vertical scroll, spoof the location bar, spoof an SSL indicator, modify the browser’s font, conduct clickjacking attacks, or have other unspecified impact. A local attacker could gain escalated privileges, obtain sensitive information, or replace an arbitrary downloaded file. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 63402 published 2013-01-08 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2013-2020 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/63402 title GLSA-201301-01 : Mozilla Products: Multiple vulnerabilities (BEAST) NASL family SuSE Local Security Checks NASL id SUSE_11_2_MOZILLAFIREFOX-100218.NASL description Mozilla Firefox was upgraded to version 3.5.8, fixing various bugs and security issues.
