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.

See the last bullet point in RFC 6125, Section 7.2. - Supports the Linux x32 ABI. To build for the Linux x32 target, set the environment variable USE_X32=1 when building NSS. New Functions : - NSS_CMSSignerInfo_Verify New Macros - TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA, TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA, etc., cipher suites that were first defined in SSL 3.0 can now be referred to with their official IANA names in TLS, with the TLS_ prefix. Previously, they had to be referred to with their names in SSL 3.0, with the SSL_ prefix. Notable Changes : - ECC is enabled by default. It is no longer necessary to set the environment variable NSS_ENABLE_ECC=1 when building NSS. To disable ECC, set the environment variable NSS_DISABLE_ECC=1 when building NSS. - libpkix should not include the common name of CA as DNS names when evaluating name constraints. - AESKeyWrap_Decrypt should not return SECSuccess for invalid keys. - Fix a memory corruption in sec_pkcs12_new_asafe. - If the NSS_SDB_USE_CACHE environment variable is set, skip the runtime test sdb_measureAccess. - The built-in roots module has been updated to version 1.97, which adds, removes, and distrusts several certificates. - The atob utility has been improved to automatically ignore lines of text that aren last seen 2020-06-05 modified 2014-06-13 plugin id 75346 published 2014-06-13 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2014-2020 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/75346 title openSUSE Security Update : MozillaFirefox (openSUSE-SU-2014:0599-1) NASL family Windows NASL id MOZILLA_FIREFOX_29.NASL description The installed version of Firefox is a version prior to 29.0 and is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities : - An issue exists in the Network Security (NSS) library due to improper handling of IDNA domain prefixes for wildcard certificates.
