Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

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.

"Updated ecryptfs-utils packages that fix several security issues are
now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)
base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for
each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

eCryptfs is a stacked, cryptographic file system. It is transparent to
the underlying file system and provides per-file granularity. eCryptfs
is released as a Technology Preview for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and
6.

The setuid mount.ecryptfs_private utility allows users to mount an
eCryptfs file system. This utility can only be run by users in the
'ecryptfs' group.

A race condition flaw was found in the way mount.ecryptfs_private
checked the permissions of a requested mount point when mounting an
encrypted file system. A local attacker could possibly use this flaw
to escalate their privileges by mounting over an arbitrary directory.
(CVE-2011-1831)

A race condition flaw in umount.ecryptfs_private could allow a local
attacker to unmount an arbitrary file system. (CVE-2011-1832)

It was found that mount.ecryptfs_private did not handle certain errors
correctly when updating the mtab (mounted file systems table) file,
allowing a local attacker to corrupt the mtab file and possibly
unmount an arbitrary file system. (CVE-2011-1834)

An insecure temporary file use flaw was found in the
ecryptfs-setup-private script. A local attacker could use this script
to insert their own key that will subsequently be used by a new user,
possibly giving the attacker access to the user's encrypted data if
existing file permissions allow access. (CVE-2011-1835)

A race condition flaw in mount.ecryptfs_private could allow a local
attacker to overwrite arbitrary files. (CVE-2011-1837)

A race condition flaw in the way temporary files were accessed in
mount.ecryptfs_private could allow a malicious, local user to make
arbitrary modifications to the mtab file. (CVE-2011-3145)

A race condition flaw was found in the way mount.ecryptfs_private
checked the permissions of the directory to mount. A local attacker
could use this flaw to mount (and then access) a directory they would
otherwise not have access to. Note: The fix for this issue is
incomplete until a kernel-space change is made. Future Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 kernel updates will correct this issue.
(CVE-2011-1833)

Red Hat would like to thank the Ubuntu Security Team for reporting
these issues. The Ubuntu Security Team acknowledges Vasiliy Kulikov of
Openwall and Dan Rosenberg as the original reporters of CVE-2011-1831,
CVE-2011-1832, and CVE-2011-1833; Dan Rosenberg and Marc Deslauriers
as the original reporters of CVE-2011-1834; Marc Deslauriers as the
original reporter of CVE-2011-1835; and Vasiliy Kulikov of Openwall as
the original reporter of CVE-2011-1837.

Users of ecryptfs-utils are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues."

"eCryptfs is a stacked, cryptographic file system. It is transparent to
the underlying file system and provides per-file granularity.

The setuid mount.ecryptfs_private utility allows users to mount an
eCryptfs file system. This utility can only be run by users in the
'ecryptfs' group.

A race condition flaw was found in the way mount.ecryptfs_private
checked the permissions of a requested mount point when mounting an
encrypted file system. A local attacker could possibly use this flaw
to escalate their privileges by mounting over an arbitrary directory.
(CVE-2011-1831)

A race condition flaw in umount.ecryptfs_private could allow a local
attacker to unmount an arbitrary file system. (CVE-2011-1832)

It was found that mount.ecryptfs_private did not handle certain errors
correctly when updating the mtab (mounted file systems table) file,
allowing a local attacker to corrupt the mtab file and possibly
unmount an arbitrary file system. (CVE-2011-1834)

An insecure temporary file use flaw was found in the
ecryptfs-setup-private script. A local attacker could use this script
to insert their own key that will subsequently be used by a new user,
possibly giving the attacker access to the user's encrypted data if
existing file permissions allow access. (CVE-2011-1835)

A race condition flaw in mount.ecryptfs_private could allow a local
attacker to overwrite arbitrary files. (CVE-2011-1837)

A race condition flaw in the way temporary files were accessed in
mount.ecryptfs_private could allow a malicious, local user to make
arbitrary modifications to the mtab file. (CVE-2011-3145)

A race condition flaw was found in the way mount.ecryptfs_private
checked the permissions of the directory to mount. A local attacker
could use this flaw to mount (and then access) a directory they would
otherwise not have access to. Note: The fix for this issue is
incomplete until a kernel-space change is made. Future Scientific
Linux 5 and 6 kernel updates will correct this issue. (CVE-2011-1833)

Users of ecryptfs-utils are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues."

    descriptionSeveral problems have been discovered in eCryptfs, a cryptographic filesystem for Linux. - CVE-2011-1831 Vasiliy Kulikov of Openwall and Dan Rosenberg discovered that eCryptfs incorrectly validated permissions on the requested mountpoint. A local attacker could use this flaw to mount to arbitrary locations, leading to privilege escalation. - CVE-2011-1832 Vasiliy Kulikov of Openwall and Dan Rosenberg discovered that eCryptfs incorrectly validated permissions on the requested mountpoint. A local attacker could use this flaw to unmount to arbitrary locations, leading to a denial of service. - CVE-2011-1834 Dan Rosenberg and Marc Deslauriers discovered that eCryptfs incorrectly handled modifications to the mtab file when an error occurs. A local attacker could use this flaw to corrupt the mtab file, and possibly unmount arbitrary locations, leading to a denial of service. - CVE-2011-1835 Marc Deslauriers discovered that eCryptfs incorrectly handled keys when setting up an encrypted private directory. A local attacker could use this flaw to manipulate keys during creation of a new user. - CVE-2011-1837 Vasiliy Kulikov of Openwall discovered that eCryptfs incorrectly handled lock counters. A local attacker could use this flaw to possibly overwrite arbitrary files. We acknowledge the work of the Ubuntu distribution in preparing patches suitable for near-direct inclusion in the Debian package.
