Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Embedding Scripts within Scripts
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities that are brought on by allowing remote hosts to execute scripts. The attacker leverages this capability to execute scripts to execute his/her own script by embedding it within other scripts that the target software is likely to execute. The attacker must have the ability to inject script into script that is likely to be executed. If this is done, then the attacker can potentially launch a variety of probes and attacks against the web server's local environment, in many cases the so-called DMZ, back end resources the web server can communicate with, and other hosts. With the proliferation of intermediaries, such as Web App Firewalls, network devices, and even printers having JVMs and Web servers, there are many locales where an attacker can inject malicious scripts. Since this attack pattern defines scripts within scripts, there are likely privileges to execute said attack on the host. Of course, these attacks are not solely limited to the server side, client side scripts like Ajax and client side JavaScript can contain malicious scripts as well. In general all that is required is for there to be sufficient privileges to execute a script, but not protected against writing.
  • Signature Spoofing by Key Theft
    An attacker obtains an authoritative or reputable signer's private signature key by theft and then uses this key to forge signatures from the original signer to mislead a victim into performing actions that benefit the attacker.

    descriptionUpdated perl-Module-Signature package fixes the following security vulnerabilities reported by John Lightsey : Module::Signature could be tricked into interpreting the unsigned portion of a SIGNATURE file as the signed portion due to faulty parsing of the PGP signature boundaries. When verifying the contents of a CPAN module, Module::Signature ignored some files in the extracted tarball that were not listed in the signature file. This included some files in the t/ directory that would execute automatically during make test When generating checksums from the signed manifest, Module::Signature used two argument open() calls to read the files. This allowed embedding arbitrary shell commands into the SIGNATURE file that would execute during the signature verification process.

    descriptionMultiple vulnerabilities were discovered in libmodule-signature-perl, a Perl module to manipulate CPAN SIGNATURE files. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems : - CVE-2015-3406 John Lightsey discovered that Module::Signature could parse the unsigned portion of the SIGNATURE file as the signed portion due to incorrect handling of PGP signature boundaries. - CVE-2015-3407 John Lightsey discovered that Module::Signature incorrectly handles files that are not listed in the SIGNATURE file. This includes some files in the t/ directory that would execute when tests are run. - CVE-2015-3408 John Lightsey discovered that Module::Signature uses two argument open() calls to read the files when generating checksums from the signed manifest. This allows to embed arbitrary shell commands into the SIGNATURE file that would execute during the signature verification process. - CVE-2015-3409 John Lightsey discovered that Module::Signature incorrectly handles module loading, allowing to load modules from relative paths in @INC. A remote attacker providing a malicious module could use this issue to execute arbitrary code during signature verification. Note that libtest-signature-perl received an update for compatibility with the fix for CVE-2015-3407 in libmodule-signature-perl.
