Vulnerable Configurations
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.

An attacker could exploit this to possibly execute arbitrary code as the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2012-4202) It was discovered that the evalInSandbox function's JavaScript sandbox context could be circumvented. An attacker could exploit this to perform a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack or steal a copy of a local file if the user has installed an add-on vulnerable to this attack. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-4201) Jonathan Stephens discovered that combining vectors involving the setting of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) properties in conjunction with SVG text could cause Firefox to crash. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious web page, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash or execute arbitrary code with the privliges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-5836) It was discovered that if a javascript: URL is selected from the list of Firefox 'new tab' page, the script will inherit the privileges of the privileged 'new tab' page. This allows for the execution of locally installed programs if a user can be convinced to save a bookmark of a malicious javascript: URL. (CVE-2012-4203) Scott Bell discovered a memory corruption issue 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 arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-4204) Gabor Krizsanits discovered that XMLHttpRequest objects created within sandboxes have the system principal instead of the sandbox principal. This can lead to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) or information theft via an add-on running untrusted code in a sandbox. (CVE-2012-4205) Peter Van der Beken discovered XrayWrapper implementation in Firefox does not consider the compartment during property filtering. An attacker could use this to bypass intended chrome-only restrictions on reading DOM object properties via a crafted website. (CVE-2012-4208) Bobby Holley discovered that cross-origin wrappers were allowing write actions on objects when only read actions should have been properly allowed. This can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-5841) Masato Kinugawa discovered that when HZ-GB-2312 charset encoding is used for text, the '~' character will destroy another character near the chunk delimiter. This can lead to a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack in pages encoded in HZ-GB-2312. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-4207) Masato Kinugawa discovered that scripts entered into the Developer Toolbar could run in a chrome privileged context. An attacker could use this vulnerability to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or execute arbitrary code as the user invoking Firefox. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-5837) Mariusz Mlynski discovered that the location property can be accessed by binary plugins through top.location with a frame whose name attribute's value is set to 'top'. This can allow for possible cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks through plugins. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-4209) Mariusz Mlynski discovered that when a maliciously crafted stylesheet is inspected in the Style Inspector, HTML and CSS can run in a chrome privileged context without being properly sanitized first. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious web page, an attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privliges of the user invoking the program.

In circumstances where the installer is run by an administrator privileged account, this allows for the downloaded DLL file to be run with administrator privileges. This can lead to arbitrary code execution from a privileged account. (MFSA 2012-98 / CVE-2012-4206) - Mozilla developer Gabor Krizsanits discovered that XMLHttpRequest objects created within sandboxes have the system principal instead of the sandbox principal. This can lead to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) or information theft via an add-on running untrusted code in a sandbox. (MFSA 2012-97 / CVE-2012-4205) - Security researcher Scott Bell of Security-Assessment.com used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover a memory corruption in str_unescape in the JavaScript engine. This could potentially lead to arbitrary code execution. (MFSA 2012-96 / CVE-2012-4204) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. - Security researcher [email protected] reported that if a javascript: URL is selected from the list of Firefox 'new tab' page, the script will inherit the privileges of the privileged 'new tab' page. This allows for the execution of locally installed programs if a user can be convinced to save a bookmark of a malicious javascript: URL. (MFSA 2012-95 / CVE-2012-4203) - Security researcher Jonathan Stephens discovered that combining SVG text on a path with the setting of CSS properties could lead to a potentially exploitable crash. (MFSA 2012-94 / CVE-2012-5836) - Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that if code executed by the evalInSandbox function sets location.href, it can get the wrong subject principal for the URL check, ignoring the sandbox's JavaScript context and gaining the context of evalInSandbox object. This can lead to malicious web content being able to perform a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack or stealing a copy of a local file if the user has installed an add-on vulnerable to this attack. (MFSA 2012-93 / CVE-2012-4201) - Security researcher Atte Kettunen from OUSPG used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover a buffer overflow while rendering GIF format images. This issue is potentially exploitable and could lead to arbitrary code execution. (MFSA 2012-92 / CVE-2012-4202) - Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs 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 2012-91) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. References Gary Kwong, Jesse Ruderman, Christian Holler, Bob Clary, Kyle Huey, Ed Morley, Chris Lord, Boris Zbarsky, Julian Seward, and Bill McCloskey reported memory safety problems and crashes that affect Firefox 16.

(MFSA 2012-104 / CVE-2012-4210) - Security researcher Mariusz Mlynski reported that the location property can be accessed by binary plugins through top.location with a frame whose name attribute's value is set to 'top'. This can allow for possible cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks through plugins. (MFSA 2012-103 / CVE-2012-4209) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. - Security researcher Masato Kinugawa reported that when script is entered into the Developer Toolbar, it runs in a chrome privileged context. This allows for arbitrary code execution or cross-site scripting (XSS) if a user can be convinced to paste malicious code into the Developer Toolbar. (MFSA 2012-102 / CVE-2012-5837) - Security researcher Masato Kinugawa found when HZ-GB-2312 charset encoding is used for text, the '~' character will destroy another character near the chunk delimiter. This can lead to a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack in pages encoded in HZ-GB-2312. (MFSA 2012-101 / CVE-2012-4207) - Mozilla developer Bobby Holley reported that security wrappers filter at the time of property access, but once a function is returned, the caller can use this function without further security checks. This affects cross-origin wrappers, allowing for write actions on objects when only read actions should be properly allowed. This can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. (MFSA 2012-100 / CVE-2012-5841) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. - Mozilla developer Peter Van der Beken discovered that same-origin XrayWrappers expose chrome-only properties even when not in a chrome compartment. This can allow web content to get properties of DOM objects that are intended to be chrome-only. (MFSA 2012-99 / CVE-2012-4208) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. - Security researcher Robert Kugler reported that when a specifically named DLL file on a Windows computer is placed in the default downloads directory with the Firefox installer, the Firefox installer will load this DLL when it is launched. In circumstances where the installer is run by an administrator privileged account, this allows for the downloaded DLL file to be run with administrator privileges. This can lead to arbitrary code execution from a privileged account. (MFSA 2012-98 / CVE-2012-4206) - Mozilla developer Gabor Krizsanits discovered that XMLHttpRequest objects created within sandboxes have the system principal instead of the sandbox principal. This can lead to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) or information theft via an add-on running untrusted code in a sandbox. (MFSA 2012-97 / CVE-2012-4205) - Security researcher Scott Bell of Security-Assessment.com used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover a memory corruption in str_unescape in the JavaScript engine. This could potentially lead to arbitrary code execution. (MFSA 2012-96 / CVE-2012-4204) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products. - Security researcher [email protected] reported that if a javascript: URL is selected from the list of Firefox 'new tab' page, the script will inherit the privileges of the privileged 'new tab' page. This allows for the execution of locally installed programs if a user can be convinced to save a bookmark of a malicious javascript: URL. (MFSA 2012-95 / CVE-2012-4203) - Security researcher Jonathan Stephens discovered that combining SVG text on a path with the setting of CSS properties could lead to a potentially exploitable crash. (MFSA 2012-94 / CVE-2012-5836) - Mozilla security researcher moz_bug_r_a4 reported that if code executed by the evalInSandbox function sets location.href, it can get the wrong subject principal for the URL check, ignoring the sandbox's JavaScript context and gaining the context of evalInSandbox object. This can lead to malicious web content being able to perform a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack or stealing a copy of a local file if the user has installed an add-on vulnerable to this attack. (MFSA 2012-93 / CVE-2012-4201) - Security researcher Atte Kettunen from OUSPG used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover a buffer overflow while rendering GIF format images. This issue is potentially exploitable and could lead to arbitrary code execution. (MFSA 2012-92 / CVE-2012-4202) - Mozilla developers identified and fixed several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in Firefox and other Mozilla-based products. Some of these bugs 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 2012-91) In general these flaws cannot be exploited through email in the Thunderbird and SeaMonkey products because scripting is disabled, but are potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts in those products.

If the user were tricked into opening a specially crafted page, an attacker could possibly exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or potentially execute code with the privileges of the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2012-5842, CVE-2012-5843) Atte Kettunen discovered a buffer overflow while rendering GIF format images. An attacker could exploit this to possibly execute arbitrary code as the user invoking Firefox. (CVE-2012-4202) It was discovered that the evalInSandbox function's JavaScript sandbox context could be circumvented. An attacker could exploit this to perform a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack or steal a copy of a local file if the user has installed an add-on vulnerable to this attack. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-4201) Jonathan Stephens discovered that combining vectors involving the setting of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) properties in conjunction with SVG text could cause Firefox to crash. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious web page, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash or execute arbitrary code with the privliges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-5836) It was discovered that if a javascript: URL is selected from the list of Firefox 'new tab' page, the script will inherit the privileges of the privileged 'new tab' page. This allows for the execution of locally installed programs if a user can be convinced to save a bookmark of a malicious javascript: URL. (CVE-2012-4203) Scott Bell discovered a memory corruption issue 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 arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-4204) Gabor Krizsanits discovered that XMLHttpRequest objects created within sandboxes have the system principal instead of the sandbox principal. This can lead to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) or information theft via an add-on running untrusted code in a sandbox. (CVE-2012-4205) Peter Van der Beken discovered XrayWrapper implementation in Firefox does not consider the compartment during property filtering. An attacker could use this to bypass intended chrome-only restrictions on reading DOM object properties via a crafted website. (CVE-2012-4208) Bobby Holley discovered that cross-origin wrappers were allowing write actions on objects when only read actions should have been properly allowed. This can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-5841) Masato Kinugawa discovered that when HZ-GB-2312 charset encoding is used for text, the '~' character will destroy another character near the chunk delimiter. This can lead to a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack in pages encoded in HZ-GB-2312. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-4207) Masato Kinugawa discovered that scripts entered into the Developer Toolbar could run in a chrome privileged context. An attacker could use this vulnerability to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or execute arbitrary code as the user invoking Firefox. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-5837) Mariusz Mlynski discovered that the location property can be accessed by binary plugins through top.location with a frame whose name attribute's value is set to 'top'. This can allow for possible cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks through plugins. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. (CVE-2012-4209) Mariusz Mlynski discovered that when a maliciously crafted stylesheet is inspected in the Style Inspector, HTML and CSS can run in a chrome privileged context without being properly sanitized first. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious web page, an attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privliges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-4210) Abhishek Arya discovered multiple use-after-free and buffer overflow issues in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious page, an attacker could exploit these to execute arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-4214, CVE-2012-4215, CVE-2012-4216, CVE-2012-5829, CVE-2012-5839, CVE-2012-5840, CVE-2012-4212, CVE-2012-4213, CVE-2012-4217, CVE-2012-4218) Several memory corruption flaws were discovered in Firefox. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious page, an attacker could exploit these to execute arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-5830, CVE-2012-5833, CVE-2012-5835, CVE-2012-5838). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
