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.
  • Server Side Include (SSI) Injection
    An attacker can use Server Side Include (SSI) Injection to send code to a web application that then gets executed by the web server. Doing so enables the attacker to achieve similar results to Cross Site Scripting, viz., arbitrary code execution and information disclosure, albeit on a more limited scale, since the SSI directives are nowhere near as powerful as a full-fledged scripting language. Nonetheless, the attacker can conveniently gain access to sensitive files, such as password files, and execute shell commands.
  • Cross Zone Scripting
    An attacker is able to cause a victim to load content into their web-browser that bypasses security zone controls and gain access to increased privileges to execute scripting code or other web objects such as unsigned ActiveX controls or applets. This is a privilege elevation attack targeted at zone-based web-browser security. In a zone-based model, pages belong to one of a set of zones corresponding to the level of privilege assigned to that page. Pages in an untrusted zone would have a lesser level of access to the system and/or be restricted in the types of executable content it was allowed to invoke. In a cross-zone scripting attack, a page that should be assigned to a less privileged zone is granted the privileges of a more trusted zone. This can be accomplished by exploiting bugs in the browser, exploiting incorrect configuration in the zone controls, through a cross-site scripting attack that causes the attackers' content to be treated as coming from a more trusted page, or by leveraging some piece of system functionality that is accessible from both the trusted and less trusted zone. This attack differs from "Restful Privilege Escalation" in that the latter correlates to the inadequate securing of RESTful access methods (such as HTTP DELETE) on the server, while cross-zone scripting attacks the concept of security zones as implemented by a browser.
  • Cross Site Scripting through Log Files
    An attacker may leverage a system weakness where logs are susceptible to log injection to insert scripts into the system's logs. If these logs are later viewed by an administrator through a thin administrative interface and the log data is not properly HTML encoded before being written to the page, the attackers' scripts stored in the log will be executed in the administrative interface with potentially serious consequences. This attack pattern is really a combination of two other attack patterns: log injection and stored cross site scripting.
  • Command Line Execution through SQL Injection
    An attacker uses standard SQL injection methods to inject data into the command line for execution. This could be done directly through misuse of directives such as MSSQL_xp_cmdshell or indirectly through injection of data into the database that would be interpreted as shell commands. Sometime later, an unscrupulous backend application (or could be part of the functionality of the same application) fetches the injected data stored in the database and uses this data as command line arguments without performing proper validation. The malicious data escapes that data plane by spawning new commands to be executed on the host.

    descriptionUpdated abrt packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. ABRT (Automatic Bug Reporting Tool) is a tool to help users to detect defects in applications and to create a bug report with all the information needed by a maintainer to fix it. It uses a plug-in system to extend its functionality. It was found that ABRT was vulnerable to multiple race condition and symbolic link flaws. A local attacker could use these flaws to potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3315) It was discovered that the kernel-invoked coredump processor provided by ABRT wrote core dumps to files owned by other system users. This could result in information disclosure if an application crashed while its current directory was a directory writable to by other users (such as /tmp). (CVE-2015-3142) It was discovered that the default event handling scripts installed by ABRT did not handle symbolic links correctly.

"Updated abrt packages that fix multiple security issues are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important
security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the
CVE link in the References section.

ABRT (Automatic Bug Reporting Tool) is a tool to help users to detect
defects in applications and to create a bug report with all the
information needed by a maintainer to fix it. It uses a plug-in system
to extend its functionality.

It was found that ABRT was vulnerable to multiple race condition and
symbolic link flaws. A local attacker could use these flaws to
potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3315)

It was discovered that the kernel-invoked coredump processor provided
by ABRT wrote core dumps to files owned by other system users. This
could result in information disclosure if an application crashed while
its current directory was a directory writable to by other users (such
as /tmp). (CVE-2015-3142)

It was discovered that the default event handling scripts installed by
ABRT did not handle symbolic links correctly. A local attacker with
write access to an ABRT problem directory could use this flaw to
escalate their privileges. (CVE-2015-1869)

It was found that the ABRT event scripts created a user-readable copy
of an sosreport file in ABRT problem directories, and included
excerpts of /var/log/messages selected by the user-controlled process
name, leading to an information disclosure. (CVE-2015-1870)

It was discovered that, when moving problem reports between certain
directories, abrt-handle-upload did not verify that the new problem
directory had appropriate permissions and did not contain symbolic
links. An attacker able to create a crafted problem report could use
this flaw to expose other parts of ABRT to attack, or to overwrite
arbitrary files on the system. (CVE-2015-3147)

Multiple directory traversal flaws were found in the abrt-dbus D-Bus
service. A local attacker could use these flaws to read and write
arbitrary files as the root user. (CVE-2015-3151)

It was discovered that the abrt-dbus D-Bus service did not properly
check the validity of the problem directory argument in the
ChownProblemDir, DeleteElement, and DeleteProblem methods. A local
attacker could use this flaw to take ownership of arbitrary files and
directories, or to delete files and directories as the root user.
(CVE-2015-3150)

It was discovered that the abrt-action-install-debuginfo-to-abrt-cache
helper program did not properly filter the process environment before
invoking abrt-action-install-debuginfo. A local attacker could use
this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3159)

All users of abrt are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which correct these issues."

"Updated abrt packages that fix multiple security issues are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important
security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the
CVE link in the References section.

ABRT (Automatic Bug Reporting Tool) is a tool to help users to detect
defects in applications and to create a bug report with all the
information needed by a maintainer to fix it. It uses a plug-in system
to extend its functionality.

It was found that ABRT was vulnerable to multiple race condition and
symbolic link flaws. A local attacker could use these flaws to
potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3315)

It was discovered that the kernel-invoked coredump processor provided
by ABRT wrote core dumps to files owned by other system users. This
could result in information disclosure if an application crashed while
its current directory was a directory writable to by other users (such
as /tmp). (CVE-2015-3142)

It was discovered that the default event handling scripts installed by
ABRT did not handle symbolic links correctly. A local attacker with
write access to an ABRT problem directory could use this flaw to
escalate their privileges. (CVE-2015-1869)

It was found that the ABRT event scripts created a user-readable copy
of an sosreport file in ABRT problem directories, and included
excerpts of /var/log/messages selected by the user-controlled process
name, leading to an information disclosure. (CVE-2015-1870)

It was discovered that, when moving problem reports between certain
directories, abrt-handle-upload did not verify that the new problem
directory had appropriate permissions and did not contain symbolic
links. An attacker able to create a crafted problem report could use
this flaw to expose other parts of ABRT to attack, or to overwrite
arbitrary files on the system. (CVE-2015-3147)

Multiple directory traversal flaws were found in the abrt-dbus D-Bus
service. A local attacker could use these flaws to read and write
arbitrary files as the root user. (CVE-2015-3151)

It was discovered that the abrt-dbus D-Bus service did not properly
check the validity of the problem directory argument in the
ChownProblemDir, DeleteElement, and DeleteProblem methods. A local
attacker could use this flaw to take ownership of arbitrary files and
directories, or to delete files and directories as the root user.
(CVE-2015-3150)

It was discovered that the abrt-action-install-debuginfo-to-abrt-cache
helper program did not properly filter the process environment before
invoking abrt-action-install-debuginfo. A local attacker could use
this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3159)

All users of abrt are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which correct these issues."

    descriptionIt was found that ABRT was vulnerable to multiple race condition and symbolic link flaws. A local attacker could use these flaws to potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3315) It was discovered that the kernel-invoked coredump processor provided by ABRT wrote core dumps to files owned by other system users. This could result in information disclosure if an application crashed while its current directory was a directory writable to by other users (such as /tmp). (CVE-2015-3142) It was discovered that the default event handling scripts installed by ABRT did not handle symbolic links correctly. A local attacker with write access to an ABRT problem directory could use this flaw to escalate their privileges. (CVE-2015-1869) It was found that the ABRT event scripts created a user-readable copy of an sosreport file in ABRT problem directories, and included excerpts of /var/log/messages selected by the user-controlled process name, leading to an information disclosure. (CVE-2015-1870) It was discovered that, when moving problem reports between certain directories, abrt-handle-upload did not verify that the new problem directory had appropriate permissions and did not contain symbolic links. An attacker able to create a crafted problem report could use this flaw to expose other parts of ABRT to attack, or to overwrite arbitrary files on the system. (CVE-2015-3147) Multiple directory traversal flaws were found in the abrt-dbus D-Bus service. A local attacker could use these flaws to read and write arbitrary files as the root user. (CVE-2015-3151) It was discovered that the abrt-dbus D-Bus service did not properly check the validity of the problem directory argument in the ChownProblemDir, DeleteElement, and DeleteProblem methods. A local attacker could use this flaw to take ownership of arbitrary files and directories, or to delete files and directories as the root user. (CVE-2015-3150) It was discovered that the abrt-action-install-debuginfo-to-abrt-cache helper program did not properly filter the process environment before invoking abrt-action-install-debuginfo. A local attacker could use this flaw to escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3159)

    descriptionFrom Red Hat Security Advisory 2015:1083 : Updated abrt packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. ABRT (Automatic Bug Reporting Tool) is a tool to help users to detect defects in applications and to create a bug report with all the information needed by a maintainer to fix it. It uses a plug-in system to extend its functionality. It was found that ABRT was vulnerable to multiple race condition and symbolic link flaws. A local attacker could use these flaws to potentially escalate their privileges on the system. (CVE-2015-3315) It was discovered that the kernel-invoked coredump processor provided by ABRT wrote core dumps to files owned by other system users.
