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.

    CVE link in the References section.
    
    The cpio packages provide the GNU cpio utility for creating and
    extracting archives, or copying files from one place to another.
    
    A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in cpio's list_file()
    function. An attacker could provide a specially crafted archive that,
    when processed by cpio, would crash cpio, or potentially lead to
    arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-9112)
    
    This update fixes the following bugs :
    
    * Previously, during archive creation, cpio internals did not detect a
    read() system call failure. Based on the premise that the call
    succeeded, cpio terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault
    without processing further files. The underlying source code has been
    patched, and an archive is now created successfully. (BZ#1138148)
    
    * Previously, running the cpio command without parameters on Red Hat
    Enterprise Linux 7 with Russian as the default language resulted in an
    error message that was not accurate in Russian due to an error in
    spelling. This has been corrected and the Russian error message is
    spelled correctly. (BZ#1075513)
    
    All cpio users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
    contain backported patches to correct these issues."

    descriptionUpdated cpio package fixes security vulnerabilities : Heap-based buffer overflow in the process_copy_in function in GNU Cpio 2.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a large block value in a cpio archive (CVE-2014-9112). Additionally, a NULL pointer dereference in the copyin_link function which could cause a denial of service has also been fixed. In GNU Cpio 2.11, the --no-absolute-filenames option limits extracting contents of an archive to be strictly inside a current directory. However, it can be bypassed with symlinks. While extracting an archive, it will extract symlinks and then follow them if they are referenced in further entries. This can be exploited by a rogue archive to write files outside the current directory (CVE-2015-1197).

    Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate

    score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the
    CVE link in the References section.
    
    The cpio packages provide the GNU cpio utility for creating and
    extracting archives, or copying files from one place to another.
    
    A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in cpio's list_file()
    function. An attacker could provide a specially crafted archive that,
    when processed by cpio, would crash cpio, or potentially lead to
    arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-9112)
    
    This update fixes the following bugs :
    
    * Previously, during archive creation, cpio internals did not detect a
    read() system call failure. Based on the premise that the call
    succeeded, cpio terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault
    without processing further files. The underlying source code has been
    patched, and an archive is now created successfully. (BZ#1138148)
    
    * Previously, running the cpio command without parameters on Red Hat
    Enterprise Linux 7 with Russian as the default language resulted in an
    error message that was not accurate in Russian due to an error in
    spelling. This has been corrected and the Russian error message is
    spelled correctly. (BZ#1075513)
    
    All cpio users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
    contain backported patches to correct these issues."

    This update fixes the following bugs :
    
      - Previously, during archive creation, cpio internals did
        not detect a read() system call failure. Based on the
        premise that the call succeeded, cpio terminated
        unexpectedly with a segmentation fault without
        processing further files. The underlying source code has
        been patched, and an archive is now created
        successfully.
    
      - Previously, running the cpio command without parameters
        on Scientific Linux 7 with Russian as the default
        language resulted in an error message that was not
        accurate in Russian due to an error in spelling. This
        has been corrected and the Russian error message is
