Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Leveraging Race Conditions
    This attack targets a race condition occurring when multiple processes access and manipulate the same resource concurrently and the outcome of the execution depends on the particular order in which the access takes place. The attacker can leverage a race condition by "running the race", modifying the resource and modifying the normal execution flow. For instance a race condition can occur while accessing a file, the attacker can trick the system by replacing the original file with his version and cause the system to read the malicious file.
  • Leveraging Time-of-Check and Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) Race Conditions
    This attack targets a race condition occurring between the time of check (state) for a resource and the time of use of a resource. The typical example is the file access. The attacker can leverage a file access race condition by "running the race", meaning that he would modify the resource between the first time the target program accesses the file and the time the target program uses the file. During that period of time, the attacker could do something such as replace the file and cause an escalation of privilege.

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - In the Linux kernel through 4.19, a use-after-free can occur due to a race condition between fanout_add from setsockopt and bind on an AF_PACKET socket. This issue exists because of the 15fe076edea787807a7cdc168df832544b58eba6 incomplete fix for a race condition. The code mishandles a certain multithreaded case involving a packet_do_bind unregister action followed by a packet_notifier register action. Later, packet_release operates on only one of the two applicable linked lists. The attacker can achieve Program Counter control.(CVE-2018-18559i1/4%0 - The acpi_ns_terminate() function in drivers/acpi/acpica/nsutils.c in the Linux kernel before 4.12 does not flush the operand cache and causes a kernel stack dump. A local users could obtain sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9) via a crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-11472i1/4%0 - Race condition in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a multithreaded application that makes PACKET_FANOUT setsockopt system calls.(CVE-2017-6346i1/4%0 - Multiple race conditions in ipc/shm.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.2 allow local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that uses shmctl IPC_RMID operations in conjunction with other shm system calls.(CVE-2013-7026i1/4%0 - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel. A NULL pointer dereference and panic in hfsplus_lookup() in the fs/hfsplus/dir.c function can occur when opening a file (that is purportedly a hard link) in an hfs+ filesystem that has malformed catalog data, and is mounted read-only without a metadata directory.(CVE-2018-14617i1/4%0 - The treo_attach function in drivers/usb/serial/visor.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by inserting a USB device that lacks a (1) bulk-in or (2) interrupt-in endpoint.(CVE-2016-2782i1/4%0 - An information-exposure flaw was found in the Linux kernel where the pcpu_embed_first_chunk() function in mm/percpu.c allows local users to obtain kernel-object address information by reading the kernel log (dmesg). However, this address is not static and cannot be used to commit a further attack.(CVE-2018-5995i1/4%0 - Buffer overflow in net/ceph/auth_x.c in Ceph, as used in the Linux kernel before 3.16.3, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long unencrypted auth ticket.(CVE-2014-6416i1/4%0 - It was found that the Linux kernel

        one of the two applicable linked lists. The attacker
        can achieve Program Counter control.(CVE-2018-18559i1/4%0
    
      - The acpi_ns_terminate() function in
        drivers/acpi/acpica/nsutils.c in the Linux kernel
        before 4.12 does not flush the operand cache and causes
        a kernel stack dump. A local users could obtain
        sensitive information from kernel memory and bypass the
        KASLR protection mechanism (in the kernel through 4.9)
        via a crafted ACPI table.(CVE-2017-11472i1/4%0
    
      - Race condition in net/packet/af_packet.c in the Linux
        kernel allows local users to cause a denial of service
        (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other
        impact via a multithreaded application that makes
        PACKET_FANOUT setsockopt system calls.(CVE-2017-6346i1/4%0
    
      - Multiple race conditions in ipc/shm.c in the Linux
        kernel before 3.12.2 allow local users to cause a
        denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or
        possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted

        conjunction with other shm system
        calls.(CVE-2013-7026i1/4%0
    
      - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel. A NULL
        pointer dereference and panic in hfsplus_lookup() in
        the fs/hfsplus/dir.c function can occur when opening a
        file (that is purportedly a hard link) in an hfs+
        filesystem that has malformed catalog data, and is
        mounted read-only without a metadata
        directory.(CVE-2018-14617i1/4%0
    
      - The treo_attach function in drivers/usb/serial/visor.c
        in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically
        proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL
        pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have
        unspecified other impact by inserting a USB device that
        lacks a (1) bulk-in or (2) interrupt-in
        endpoint.(CVE-2016-2782i1/4%0
    
      - An information-exposure flaw was found in the Linux
        kernel where the pcpu_embed_first_chunk() function in
        mm/percpu.c allows local users to obtain kernel-object
        address information by reading the kernel log (dmesg).
        However, this address is not static and cannot be used
        to commit a further attack.(CVE-2018-5995i1/4%0
    
      - Buffer overflow in net/ceph/auth_x.c in Ceph, as used
        in the Linux kernel before 3.16.3, allows remote
        attackers to cause a denial of service (memory
        corruption and panic) or possibly have unspecified
        other impact via a long unencrypted auth
        ticket.(CVE-2014-6416i1/4%0
    
      - It was found that the Linux kernel's ptrace subsystem
        allowed a traced process' instruction pointer to be set
        to a non-canonical memory address without forcing the
        non-sysret code path when returning to user space. A
        local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to crash
        the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges
        on the system.Note: The CVE-2014-4699 issue only
        affected systems using an Intel CPU.(CVE-2014-4699i1/4%0
    
      - The snd_compr_tstamp function in
        sound/core/compress_offload.c in the Linux kernel
        through 4.7, as used in Android before 2016-08-05 on
        Nexus 5 and 7 (2013) devices, does not properly
        initialize a timestamp data structure, which allows
        attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted
        application, aka Android internal bug 28770164 and
        Qualcomm internal bug CR568717.(CVE-2014-9892i1/4%0
    
      - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's ext4
        file system handled the 'page size i1/4z block size'
        condition when the fallocate zero range functionality
        was used. A local attacker could use this flaw to crash
        the system.(CVE-2015-0275i1/4%0
    
      - An information leak flaw was found in the way the Linux
        kernel's ISO9660 file system implementation accessed
        data on an ISO9660 image with RockRidge Extension
        Reference (ER) records. An attacker with physical
        access to the system could use this flaw to disclose up
        to 255 bytes of kernel memory.(CVE-2014-9584i1/4%0
    
      - The pivot_root implementation in fs/namespace.c in the
        Linux kernel through 3.17 does not properly interact
        with certain locations of a chroot directory, which
        allows local users to cause a denial of service
        (mount-tree loop) via . (dot) values in both arguments
        to the pivot_root system call.(CVE-2014-7970i1/4%0
    
      - arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c in the Linux kernel before
        4.8.12 does not properly initialize Code Segment (CS)
        in certain error cases, which allows local users to
        obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory
        via a crafted application.(CVE-2016-9756i1/4%0
    
      - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel where the
        swiotlb_print_info() function in lib/swiotlb.c allows
        local users to obtain some kernel address information
        by reading the kernel log (dmesg). This address is not
        useful to commit a further attack.(CVE-2018-5953i1/4%0
    
      - A flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's file
        system implementation handled rename operations in
        which the source was inside and the destination was
        outside of a bind mount. A privileged user inside a
        container could use this flaw to escape the bind mount
        and, potentially, escalate their privileges on the
        system.(CVE-2015-2925i1/4%0
    
      - A use-after-free fault in the Linux kernel's usbtv
        driver could allow an attacker to cause a denial of
        service (system crash), or have unspecified other
        impacts, by triggering failure of audio registration of
        USB hardware using the usbtv kernel
        module.(CVE-2017-17975i1/4%0
    
      - The mm subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.10.10
        does not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM
        protection mechanism, which allows local users to read
        or write to kernel memory locations in the first
        megabyte (and bypass slab-allocation access
        restrictions) via an application that opens the
        /dev/mem file, related to arch/x86/mm/init.c and
        drivers/char/mem.c.(CVE-2017-7889i1/4%0
    
      - A flaw was discovered in the way the kernel allows
        stackable filesystems to overlay. A local attacker who
        is able to mount filesystems can abuse this flaw to
        escalate privileges.(CVE-2014-9922i1/4%0
    
      - sound/core/timer.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4.1
        retains certain linked lists after a close or stop
        action, which allows local users to cause a denial of
        service (system crash) via a crafted ioctl call,
        related to the (1) snd_timer_close and (2)
        _snd_timer_stop functions.(CVE-2016-2548i1/4%0

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - The skb_flow_dissect function in net/core/flow_dissector.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a small value in the IHL field of a packet with IPIP encapsulation.(CVE-2013-4348) - The IPv6 SCTP implementation in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.1 uses data structures and function calls that do not trigger an intended configuration of IPsec encryption, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network.(CVE-2013-4350) - net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through 3.11.4 does not properly determine the need for UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) processing of small packets after the UFO queueing of a large packet, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via network traffic that triggers a large response packet.(CVE-2013-4387) - The Linux kernel before 3.12, when UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) is enabled, does not properly initialize certain data structures, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted application that uses the UDP_CORK option in a setsockopt system call and sends both short and long packets, related to the ip_ufo_append_data function in net/ipv4/ip_output.c and the ip6_ufo_append_data function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c.(CVE-2013-4470) - Multiple integer overflows in Alchemy LCD frame-buffer drivers in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local users to create a read-write memory mapping for the entirety of kernel memory, and consequently gain privileges, via crafted mmap operations, related to the (1) au1100fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1100fb.c and the (2) au1200fb_fb_mmap function in drivers/video/au1200fb.c.(CVE-2013-4511) - The udp6_ufo_fragment function in net/ipv6/udp_offload.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12, when UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) is enabled, does not properly perform a certain size comparison before inserting a fragment header, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via a large IPv6 UDP packet, as demonstrated by use of the Token Bucket Filter (TBF) queueing discipline.(CVE-2013-4563) - The ath9k_htc_set_bssid_mask function in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12 uses a BSSID masking approach to determine the set of MAC addresses on which a Wi-Fi device is listening, which allows remote attackers to discover the original MAC address after spoofing by sending a series of packets to MAC addresses with certain bit manipulations.(CVE-2013-4579) - Array index error in the kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu function in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5 allows local users to gain privileges via a large id value.(CVE-2013-4587) - The apic_get_tmcct function in arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and host OS crash) via crafted modifications of the TMICT value.(CVE-2013-6367) - The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5 allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (system crash) via a VAPIC synchronization operation involving a page-end address.(CVE-2013-6368) - The recalculate_apic_map function in arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) via a crafted ICR write operation in x2apic mode.(CVE-2013-6376) - The lbs_debugfs_write function in drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) by leveraging root privileges for a zero-length write operation.(CVE-2013-6378) - The aac_send_raw_srb function in drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 does not properly validate a certain size value, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid pointer dereference) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an FSACTL_SEND_RAW_SRB ioctl call that triggers a crafted SRB command.(CVE-2013-6380) - Multiple buffer underflows in the XFS implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allow local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for a (1) XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE or (2) XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE_32 ioctl call with a crafted length value, related to the xfs_attrlist_by_handle function in fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c and the xfs_compat_attrlist_by_handle function in fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl32.c.(CVE-2013-6382) - The aac_compat_ioctl function in drivers/scsi/aacraid/linit.c in the Linux kernel before 3.11.8 does not require the CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2013-6383) - The fib6_add function in net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c in the Linux kernel before 3.11.5 does not properly implement error-code encoding, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability for an IPv6 SIOCADDRT ioctl call.(CVE-2013-6431) - The uio_mmap_physical function in drivers/uio/uio.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12 does not validate the size of a memory block, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly gain privileges via crafted mmap operations, a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-4511.(CVE-2013-6763) - Multiple race conditions in ipc/shm.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.2 allow local users to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted application that uses shmctl IPC_RMID operations in conjunction with other shm system calls.(CVE-2013-7026) - The ieee80211_radiotap_iterator_init function in net/wireless/radiotap.c in the Linux kernel before 3.11.7 does not check whether a frame contains any data outside of the header, which might allow attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer over-read) via a crafted header.(CVE-2013-7027) - The Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates certain length values before ensuring that associated data structures have been initialized, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call, related to net/ipv4/ping.c, net/ipv4/raw.c, net/ipv4/udp.c, net/ipv6/raw.c, and net/ipv6/udp.c.(CVE-2013-7263) - The l2tp_ip_recvmsg function in net/l2tp/l2tp_ip.c in the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length value before ensuring that an associated data structure has been initialized, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system call.(CVE-2013-7264) Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    "According to the versions of the kernel packages installed, the
    EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by
    the following vulnerabilities :
    
      - The skb_flow_dissect function in
        net/core/flow_dissector.c in the Linux kernel through
        3.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
        service (infinite loop) via a small value in the IHL
        field of a packet with IPIP
        encapsulation.(CVE-2013-4348)
    
      - The IPv6 SCTP implementation in net/sctp/ipv6.c in the
        Linux kernel through 3.11.1 uses data structures and
        function calls that do not trigger an intended
        configuration of IPsec encryption, which allows remote
        attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing
        the network.(CVE-2013-4350)
    
      - net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the Linux kernel through
        3.11.4 does not properly determine the need for UDP
        Fragmentation Offload (UFO) processing of small packets
        after the UFO queueing of a large packet, which allows
        remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory
        corruption and system crash) or possibly have
        unspecified other impact via network traffic that
        triggers a large response packet.(CVE-2013-4387)
    
      - The Linux kernel before 3.12, when UDP Fragmentation
        Offload (UFO) is enabled, does not properly initialize
        certain data structures, which allows local users to
        cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system
        crash) or possibly gain privileges via a crafted
        application that uses the UDP_CORK option in a
        setsockopt system call and sends both short and long
        packets, related to the ip_ufo_append_data function in
        net/ipv4/ip_output.c and the ip6_ufo_append_data
        function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c.(CVE-2013-4470)
    
      - Multiple integer overflows in Alchemy LCD frame-buffer
        drivers in the Linux kernel before 3.12 allow local
        users to create a read-write memory mapping for the
        entirety of kernel memory, and consequently gain
        privileges, via crafted mmap operations, related to the
        (1) au1100fb_fb_mmap function in
        drivers/video/au1100fb.c and the (2) au1200fb_fb_mmap
        function in drivers/video/au1200fb.c.(CVE-2013-4511)
    
      - The udp6_ufo_fragment function in
        net/ipv6/udp_offload.c in the Linux kernel through
        3.12, when UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) is enabled,
        does not properly perform a certain size comparison
        before inserting a fragment header, which allows remote
        attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via a
        large IPv6 UDP packet, as demonstrated by use of the
        Token Bucket Filter (TBF) queueing
        discipline.(CVE-2013-4563)
    
      - The ath9k_htc_set_bssid_mask function in
        drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c in the
        Linux kernel through 3.12 uses a BSSID masking approach
        to determine the set of MAC addresses on which a Wi-Fi
        device is listening, which allows remote attackers to
        discover the original MAC address after spoofing by
        sending a series of packets to MAC addresses with
        certain bit manipulations.(CVE-2013-4579)
    
      - Array index error in the kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu
        function in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c in the KVM subsystem in
        the Linux kernel through 3.12.5 allows local users to
        gain privileges via a large id value.(CVE-2013-4587)
    
      - The apic_get_tmcct function in arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c in
        the KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5
        allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service
        (divide-by-zero error and host OS crash) via crafted
        modifications of the TMICT value.(CVE-2013-6367)
    
      - The KVM subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.12.5
        allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial
        of service (system crash) via a VAPIC synchronization
        operation involving a page-end address.(CVE-2013-6368)
    
      - The recalculate_apic_map function in
        arch/x86/kvm/lapic.c in the KVM subsystem in the Linux
        kernel through 3.12.5 allows guest OS users to cause a
        denial of service (host OS crash) via a crafted ICR
        write operation in x2apic mode.(CVE-2013-6376)
    
      - The lbs_debugfs_write function in
        drivers/net/wireless/libertas/debugfs.c in the Linux
        kernel through 3.12.1 allows local users to cause a
        denial of service (OOPS) by leveraging root privileges
        for a zero-length write operation.(CVE-2013-6378)
    
      - The aac_send_raw_srb function in
        drivers/scsi/aacraid/commctrl.c in the Linux kernel
        through 3.12.1 does not properly validate a certain
        size value, which allows local users to cause a denial
        of service (invalid pointer dereference) or possibly
        have unspecified other impact via an
        FSACTL_SEND_RAW_SRB ioctl call that triggers a crafted
        SRB command.(CVE-2013-6380)
    
      - Multiple buffer underflows in the XFS implementation in
        the Linux kernel through 3.12.1 allow local users to
        cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or
        possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging
        the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for a (1)
        XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE or (2)
        XFS_IOC_ATTRLIST_BY_HANDLE_32 ioctl call with a crafted
        length value, related to the xfs_attrlist_by_handle
        function in fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c and the
        xfs_compat_attrlist_by_handle function in
        fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl32.c.(CVE-2013-6382)
    
      - The aac_compat_ioctl function in
        drivers/scsi/aacraid/linit.c in the Linux kernel before
        3.11.8 does not require the CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability,
        which allows local users to bypass intended access
        restrictions via a crafted ioctl call.(CVE-2013-6383)
    
      - The fib6_add function in net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c in the
        Linux kernel before 3.11.5 does not properly implement
        error-code encoding, which allows local users to cause
        a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and
        system crash) by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN
        capability for an IPv6 SIOCADDRT ioctl
        call.(CVE-2013-6431)
    
      - The uio_mmap_physical function in drivers/uio/uio.c in
        the Linux kernel before 3.12 does not validate the size
        of a memory block, which allows local users to cause a
        denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly gain
        privileges via crafted mmap operations, a different
        vulnerability than CVE-2013-4511.(CVE-2013-6763)
    
      - Multiple race conditions in ipc/shm.c in the Linux
        kernel before 3.12.2 allow local users to cause a
        denial of service (use-after-free and system crash) or
        possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted
        application that uses shmctl IPC_RMID operations in
        conjunction with other shm system calls.(CVE-2013-7026)
    
      - The ieee80211_radiotap_iterator_init function in
        net/wireless/radiotap.c in the Linux kernel before
        3.11.7 does not check whether a frame contains any data
        outside of the header, which might allow attackers to
        cause a denial of service (buffer over-read) via a
        crafted header.(CVE-2013-7027)
    
      - The Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates certain length
        values before ensuring that associated data structures
        have been initialized, which allows local users to
        obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory
        via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system
        call, related to net/ipv4/ping.c, net/ipv4/raw.c,
        net/ipv4/udp.c, net/ipv6/raw.c, and
        net/ipv6/udp.c.(CVE-2013-7263)
    
      - The l2tp_ip_recvmsg function in net/l2tp/l2tp_ip.c in
        the Linux kernel before 3.12.4 updates a certain length
        value before ensuring that an associated data structure
        has been initialized, which allows local users to
        obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory
        via a (1) recvfrom, (2) recvmmsg, or (3) recvmsg system
        call.(CVE-2013-7264)
