Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Subverting Environment Variable Values
    The attacker directly or indirectly modifies environment variables used by or controlling the target software. The attacker's goal is to cause the target software to deviate from its expected operation in a manner that benefits the attacker.
  • Footprinting
    An attacker engages in probing and exploration activity to identify constituents and properties of the target. Footprinting is a general term to describe a variety of information gathering techniques, often used by attackers in preparation for some attack. It consists of using tools to learn as much as possible about the composition, configuration, and security mechanisms of the targeted application, system or network. Information that might be collected during a footprinting effort could include open ports, applications and their versions, network topology, and similar information. While footprinting is not intended to be damaging (although certain activities, such as network scans, can sometimes cause disruptions to vulnerable applications inadvertently) it may often pave the way for more damaging attacks.
  • 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.
  • Browser Fingerprinting
    An attacker carefully crafts small snippets of Java Script to efficiently detect the type of browser the potential victim is using. Many web-based attacks need prior knowledge of the web browser including the version of browser to ensure successful exploitation of a vulnerability. Having this knowledge allows an attacker to target the victim with attacks that specifically exploit known or zero day weaknesses in the type and version of the browser used by the victim. Automating this process via Java Script as a part of the same delivery system used to exploit the browser is considered more efficient as the attacker can supply a browser fingerprinting method and integrate it with exploit code, all contained in Java Script and in response to the same web page request by the browser.
  • Session Credential Falsification through Prediction
    This attack targets predictable session ID in order to gain privileges. The attacker can predict the session ID used during a transaction to perform spoofing and session hijacking.

    descriptionThe SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP4 kernel has been updated to fix various bugs and security issues. Security issues fixed : CVE-2012-4444: The ip6_frag_queue function in net/ipv6/reassembly.c in the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to bypass intended network restrictions via overlapping IPv6 fragments. CVE-2013-1928: The do_video_set_spu_palette function in fs/compat_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel lacked a certain error check, which might have allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE ioctl call on a /dev/dvb device. Also the following bugs have been fixed : - hugetlb: Fix regression introduced by the original patch (bnc#790236, bnc#819403). - NFSv3/v2: Fix data corruption with NFS short reads (bnc#818337). - Fix package descriptions in specfiles (bnc#817666). - TTY: fix atime/mtime regression (bnc#815745). - virtio_net: ensure big packets are 64k (bnc#760753). - virtio_net: refill rx buffers when oom occurs (bnc#760753). - qeth: fix qeth_wait_for_threads() deadlock for OSN devices (bnc#812317, LTC#90910). - nfsd: remove unnecessary NULL checks from nfsd_cross_mnt (bnc#810628). - knfsd: Fixed problem with NFS exporting directories which are mounted on (bnc#810628). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    Security issues fixed :
    
      - The ip6_frag_queue function in net/ipv6/reassembly.c in
        the Linux kernel allowed remote attackers to bypass
        intended network restrictions via overlapping IPv6
        fragments. (CVE-2012-4444)
    
      - The do_video_set_spu_palette function in
        fs/compat_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel lacked a certain
        error check, which might have allowed local users to
        obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory
        via a crafted VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE ioctl call on a
        /dev/dvb device. (CVE-2013-1928)

    descriptionThe openSUSE 12.1 kernel was updated to fix a severe secrutiy issue and various bugs. Security issues fixed: CVE-2013-2094: The perf_swevent_init function in kernel/events/core.c in the Linux kernel used an incorrect integer data type, which allowed local users to gain privileges via a crafted perf_event_open system call. CVE-2013-1774: The chase_port function in drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via an attempted /dev/ttyUSB read or write operation on a disconnected Edgeport USB serial converter. CVE-2013-1928: The do_video_set_spu_palette function in fs/compat_ioctl.c in the Linux kernel lacked a certain error check, which might have allowed local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE ioctl call on a /dev/dvb device. CVE-2013-1796: The kvm_set_msr_common function in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel did not ensure a required time_page alignment during an MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME operation, which allowed guest OS users to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and host OS memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application. CVE-2013-1797: Use-after-free vulnerability in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel allowed guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that triggers use of a guest physical address (GPA) in (1) movable or (2) removable memory during an MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME kvm_set_msr_common operation. CVE-2013-1798: The ioapic_read_indirect function in virt/kvm/ioapic.c in the Linux kernel did not properly handle a certain combination of invalid IOAPIC_REG_SELECT and IOAPIC_REG_WINDOW operations, which allowed guest OS users to obtain sensitive information from host OS memory or cause a denial of service (host OS OOPS) via a crafted application. CVE-2013-1767: Use-after-free vulnerability in the shmem_remount_fs function in mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel allowed local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (system crash) by remounting a tmpfs filesystem without specifying a required mpol (aka mempolicy) mount option. CVE-2013-0913: Integer overflow in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c in the i915 driver in the Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) subsystem in the Linux kernel allowed local users to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that triggers many relocation copies, and potentially leads to a race condition. Bugs fixed : - qlge: fix dma map leak when the last chunk is not allocated (bnc#819519). - TTY: fix atime/mtime regression (bnc#815745). - fs/compat_ioctl.c: VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE missing error check (bnc#813735). - USB: io_ti: Fix NULL dereference in chase_port() (bnc#806976, CVE-2013-1774). - KVM: Convert MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME to use gfn_to_hva_cache_init (bnc#806980 CVE-2013-1797). - KVM: Fix bounds checking in ioapic indirect register read (bnc#806980 CVE-2013-1798). - KVM: Fix for buffer overflow in handling of MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME (bnc#806980 CVE-2013-1796). - kabi/severities: Allow kvm module abi changes - modules are self consistent - loopdev: fix a deadlock (bnc#809748). - block: use i_size_write() in bd_set_size() (bnc#809748). - drm/i915: bounds check execbuffer relocation count (bnc#808829,CVE-2013-0913). - tmpfs: fix use-after-free of mempolicy object (bnc#806138, CVE-2013-1767).
