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.

descriptionThis module exploits a stack buffer overflow in Safenet SoftRemote IKE IreIKE.exe service. When sending a specially crafted udp packet to port 62514 an attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code. This module has been tested with Juniper NetScreen-Remote 10.8.0 (Build 20) using windows/meterpreter/reverse_ord_tcp payloads.

descriptionThe remote host is running a version of Juniper NetScreen VPN client that is affected by multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities : - The IKE VPN service listening on UDP port 62514 is vulnerable to a stack overflow vulnerability that can be triggered by sending specially crafted packets. (CVE-2009-1943) - spdedit.exe has a flaw in parsing specially crafted SPD files that can be utilized to trigger a stack overflow. (CVE-2009-3861) Successful exploitation of either of these vulnerabilities could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the host.
