Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Relative Path Traversal
    An attacker exploits a weakness in input validation on the target by supplying a specially constructed path utilizing dot and slash characters for the purpose of obtaining access to arbitrary files or resources. An attacker modifies a known path on the target in order to reach material that is not available through intended channels. These attacks normally involve adding additional path separators (/ or \) and/or dots (.), or encodings thereof, in various combinations in order to reach parent directories or entirely separate trees of the target's directory structure.
  • Directory Traversal
    An attacker with access to file system resources, either directly or via application logic, will use various file path specification or navigation mechanisms such as ".." in path strings and absolute paths to extend their range of access to inappropriate areas of the file system. The attacker attempts to either explore the file system for recon purposes or access directories and files that are intended to be restricted from their access. Exploring the file system can be achieved through constructing paths presented to directory listing programs, such as "ls" and 'dir', or through specially crafted programs that attempt to explore the file system. The attacker engaging in this type of activity is searching for information that can be used later in a more exploitive attack. Access to restricted directories or files can be achieved through modification of path references utilized by system applications.
  • File System Function Injection, Content Based
    An attack of this type exploits the host's trust in executing remote content including binary files. The files are poisoned with a malicious payload (targeting the file systems accessible by the target software) by the attacker and may be passed through standard channels such as via email, and standard web content like PDF and multimedia files. The attacker exploits known vulnerabilities or handling routines in the target processes. Vulnerabilities of this type have been found in a wide variety of commercial applications from Microsoft Office to Adobe Acrobat and Apple Safari web browser. When the attacker knows the standard handling routines and can identify vulnerabilities and entry points they can be exploited by otherwise seemingly normal content. Once the attack is executed, the attackers' program can access relative directories such as C:\Program Files or other standard system directories to launch further attacks. In a worst case scenario, these programs are combined with other propagation logic and work as a virus.
  • Using Slashes and URL Encoding Combined to Bypass Validation Logic
    This attack targets the encoding of the URL combined with the encoding of the slash characters. An attacker can take advantage of the multiple way of encoding an URL and abuse the interpretation of the URL. An URL may contain special character that need special syntax handling in order to be interpreted. Special characters are represented using a percentage character followed by two digits representing the octet code of the original character (%HEX-CODE). For instance US-ASCII space character would be represented with %20. This is often referred as escaped ending or percent-encoding. Since the server decodes the URL from the requests, it may restrict the access to some URL paths by validating and filtering out the URL requests it received. An attacker will try to craft an URL with a sequence of special characters which once interpreted by the server will be equivalent to a forbidden URL. It can be difficult to protect against this attack since the URL can contain other format of encoding such as UTF-8 encoding, Unicode-encoding, etc.
  • Manipulating Input to File System Calls
    An attacker manipulates inputs to the target software which the target software passes to file system calls in the OS. The goal is to gain access to, and perhaps modify, areas of the file system that the target software did not intend to be accessible.

    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.

"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)

    NASL idORACLELINUX_ELSA-2015-1083.NASL
    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.
