Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Subverting Environment Variable Values
    The attacker directly or indirectly modifies environment variables used by or controlling the target software. The attacker's goal is to cause the target software to deviate from its expected operation in a manner that benefits the attacker.
  • Footprinting
    An attacker engages in probing and exploration activity to identify constituents and properties of the target. Footprinting is a general term to describe a variety of information gathering techniques, often used by attackers in preparation for some attack. It consists of using tools to learn as much as possible about the composition, configuration, and security mechanisms of the targeted application, system or network. Information that might be collected during a footprinting effort could include open ports, applications and their versions, network topology, and similar information. While footprinting is not intended to be damaging (although certain activities, such as network scans, can sometimes cause disruptions to vulnerable applications inadvertently) it may often pave the way for more damaging attacks.
  • Exploiting Trust in Client (aka Make the Client Invisible)
    An attack of this type exploits a programs' vulnerabilities in client/server communication channel authentication and data integrity. It leverages the implicit trust a server places in the client, or more importantly, that which the server believes is the client. An attacker executes this type of attack by placing themselves in the communication channel between client and server such that communication directly to the server is possible where the server believes it is communicating only with a valid client. There are numerous variations of this type of attack.
  • Browser Fingerprinting
    An attacker carefully crafts small snippets of Java Script to efficiently detect the type of browser the potential victim is using. Many web-based attacks need prior knowledge of the web browser including the version of browser to ensure successful exploitation of a vulnerability. Having this knowledge allows an attacker to target the victim with attacks that specifically exploit known or zero day weaknesses in the type and version of the browser used by the victim. Automating this process via Java Script as a part of the same delivery system used to exploit the browser is considered more efficient as the attacker can supply a browser fingerprinting method and integrate it with exploit code, all contained in Java Script and in response to the same web page request by the browser.
  • Session Credential Falsification through Prediction
    This attack targets predictable session ID in order to gain privileges. The attacker can predict the session ID used during a transaction to perform spoofing and session hijacking.

    descriptionThis update for pcre to version 8.39 (bsc#972127) fixes several issues. If you use pcre extensively please be aware that this is an update to a new version. Please make sure that your software works with the updated version. This version fixes a number of vulnerabilities that affect pcre and applications using the libary when accepting untrusted input as regular expressions or as part thereof. Remote attackers could have caused the application to crash, disclose information or potentially execute arbitrary code. These security issues were fixed : - CVE-2014-8964: Heap-based buffer overflow in PCRE allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or have other unspecified impact via a crafted regular expression, related to an assertion that allows zero repeats (bsc#906574). - CVE-2015-2325: Heap buffer overflow in compile_branch() (bsc#924960). - CVE-2015-3210: Heap buffer overflow in pcre_compile2() / compile_regex() (bsc#933288) - CVE-2015-3217: PCRE Library Call Stack Overflow Vulnerability in match() (bsc#933878). - CVE-2015-5073: Library Heap Overflow Vulnerability in find_fixedlength() (bsc#936227). - bsc#942865: heap overflow in compile_regex() - CVE-2015-8380: The pcre_exec function in pcre_exec.c mishandled a // pattern with a \01 string, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror (bsc#957566). - CVE-2015-2327: PCRE mishandled certain patterns with internal recursive back references, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror (bsc#957567). - bsc#957598: Various security issues - CVE-2015-8381: Heap Overflow in compile_regex() (bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8382: Regular Expression Uninitialized Pointer Information Disclosure Vulnerability (ZDI-CAN-2547)(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8383: Buffer overflow caused by repeated conditional group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8384: Buffer overflow caused by recursive back reference by name within certain group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8385: Buffer overflow caused by forward reference by name to certain group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8386: Buffer overflow caused by lookbehind assertion(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8387: Integer overflow in subroutine calls(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8388: Buffer overflow caused by certain patterns with an unmatched closing parenthesis(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8389: Infinite recursion in JIT compiler when processing certain patterns(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8390: Reading from uninitialized memory when processing certain patterns(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8391: Some pathological patterns causes pcre_compile() to run for a very long time(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8392: Buffer overflow caused by certain patterns with duplicated named groups(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8393: Information leak when running pcgrep -q on crafted binary(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8394: Integer overflow caused by missing check for certain conditions(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8395: Buffer overflow caused by certain references(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-2328: PCRE mishandled the /((?(R)a|(?1)))+/ pattern and related patterns with certain recursion, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression (bsc#957600). - CVE-2016-1283: The pcre_compile2 function in pcre_compile.c in PCRE mishandled certain patterns with named subgroups, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression (bsc#960837). - CVE-2016-3191: The compile_branch function in pcre_compile.c in pcre2_compile.c mishandled patterns containing an (*ACCEPT) substring in conjunction with nested parentheses, which allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow) via a crafted regular expression (bsc#971741). The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

"This update for pcre to version 8.39 (bsc#972127) fixes several
issues. If you use pcre extensively please be aware that this is an
update to a new version. Please make sure that your software works
with the updated version. This version fixes a number of
vulnerabilities that affect pcre and applications using the libary
when accepting untrusted input as regular expressions or as part
thereof. Remote attackers could have caused the application to crash,
disclose information or potentially execute arbitrary code. These
security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2014-8964: Heap-based buffer overflow in PCRE
    allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (crash) or have other unspecified impact via a crafted
    regular expression, related to an assertion that allows
    zero repeats (bsc#906574).

  - CVE-2015-2325: Heap buffer overflow in compile_branch()
    (bsc#924960).

  - CVE-2015-3210: Heap buffer overflow in pcre_compile2() /
    compile_regex() (bsc#933288)

  - CVE-2015-3217: PCRE Library Call Stack Overflow
    Vulnerability in match() (bsc#933878).

  - CVE-2015-5073: Library Heap Overflow Vulnerability in

  - bsc#942865: heap overflow in compile_regex()

  - CVE-2015-8380: The pcre_exec function in pcre_exec.c
    mishandled a // pattern with a \01 string, which allowed
    remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have
    unspecified other impact via a crafted regular
    expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp
    object encountered by Konqueror (bsc#957566).

  - CVE-2015-2327: PCRE mishandled certain patterns with
    internal recursive back references, which allowed remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation
    fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
    crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a
    JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror
    (bsc#957567).

  - bsc#957598: Various security issues

  - CVE-2015-8381: Heap Overflow in compile_regex()
    (bsc#957598).

    parenthesis(bsc#957598).

  - CVE-2015-8389: Infinite recursion in JIT compiler when
    processing certain patterns(bsc#957598).

  - CVE-2015-8390: Reading from uninitialized memory when
    processing certain patterns(bsc#957598).

  - CVE-2015-8391: Some pathological patterns causes
    pcre_compile() to run for a very long time(bsc#957598).

  - CVE-2015-8392: Buffer overflow caused by certain

    service (segmentation fault) or possibly have
    unspecified other impact via a crafted regular
    expression (bsc#957600).

  - CVE-2016-1283: The pcre_compile2 function in
    pcre_compile.c in PCRE mishandled certain patterns with
    named subgroups, which allowed remote attackers to cause
    a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or
    possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted
    regular expression (bsc#960837).

  - CVE-2016-3191: The compile_branch function in
    pcre_compile.c in pcre2_compile.c mishandled patterns
    containing an (*ACCEPT) substring in conjunction with
    nested parentheses, which allowed remote attackers to
    execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service
    (stack-based buffer overflow) via a crafted regular
    expression (bsc#971741).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for

    descriptionThis update for pcre to version 8.39 (bsc#972127) fixes several issues. If you use pcre extensively please be aware that this is an update to a new version. Please make sure that your software works with the updated version. This version fixes a number of vulnerabilities that affect pcre and applications using the libary when accepting untrusted input as regular expressions or as part thereof. Remote attackers could have caused the application to crash, disclose information or potentially execute arbitrary code. These security issues were fixed : - CVE-2014-8964: Heap-based buffer overflow in PCRE allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or have other unspecified impact via a crafted regular expression, related to an assertion that allows zero repeats (bsc#906574). - CVE-2015-2325: Heap buffer overflow in compile_branch() (bsc#924960). - CVE-2015-3210: Heap buffer overflow in pcre_compile2() / compile_regex() (bsc#933288) - CVE-2015-3217: PCRE Library Call Stack Overflow Vulnerability in match() (bsc#933878). - CVE-2015-5073: Library Heap Overflow Vulnerability in find_fixedlength() (bsc#936227). - bsc#942865: heap overflow in compile_regex() - CVE-2015-8380: The pcre_exec function in pcre_exec.c mishandled a // pattern with a \01 string, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror (bsc#957566). - CVE-2015-2327: PCRE mishandled certain patterns with internal recursive back references, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror (bsc#957567). - bsc#957598: Various security issues - CVE-2015-8381: Heap Overflow in compile_regex() (bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8382: Regular Expression Uninitialized Pointer Information Disclosure Vulnerability (ZDI-CAN-2547)(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8383: Buffer overflow caused by repeated conditional group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8384: Buffer overflow caused by recursive back reference by name within certain group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8385: Buffer overflow caused by forward reference by name to certain group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8386: Buffer overflow caused by lookbehind assertion(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8387: Integer overflow in subroutine calls(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8388: Buffer overflow caused by certain patterns with an unmatched closing parenthesis(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8389: Infinite recursion in JIT compiler when processing certain patterns(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8390: Reading from uninitialized memory when processing certain patterns(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8391: Some pathological patterns causes pcre_compile() to run for a very long time(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8392: Buffer overflow caused by certain patterns with duplicated named groups(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8393: Information leak when running pcgrep -q on crafted binary(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8394: Integer overflow caused by missing check for certain conditions(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8395: Buffer overflow caused by certain references(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-2328: PCRE mishandled the /((?(R)a|(?1)))+/ pattern and related patterns with certain recursion, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression (bsc#957600). - CVE-2016-1283: The pcre_compile2 function in pcre_compile.c in PCRE mishandled certain patterns with named subgroups, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression (bsc#960837). - CVE-2016-3191: The compile_branch function in pcre_compile.c in pcre2_compile.c mishandled patterns containing an (*ACCEPT) substring in conjunction with nested parentheses, which allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow) via a crafted regular expression (bsc#971741).

It also fixes compiling comments with auto-callouts, compiling expressions with negated classes in UCP mode, compiling expressions with an isolated \E between an item and its qualifier with auto-callouts, a crash in regexec() if REG_STARTEND option is set and pmatch argument is NULL, a stack overflow when formatting a 32-bit integer in pcregrep tool, compiling expressions with an empty \Q\E sequence between an item and its qualifier with auto-callouts, compiling expressions with global extended modifier that is disabled by local no-extended option at the start of the expression just after a whitespace, a possible crash in pcre_copy_named_substring() if a named substring has number greater than the space in the ovector, a buffer overflow when compiling an expression with named groups with a group that reset capture numbers, and a crash in pcre_get_substring_list() if the use of \K caused the start of the match to be earlier than the end. Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    descriptionThis update for pcre to version 8.39 (bsc#972127) fixes several issues. If you use pcre extensively please be aware that this is an update to a new version. Please make sure that your software works with the updated version. This version fixes a number of vulnerabilities that affect pcre and applications using the libary when accepting untrusted input as regular expressions or as part thereof. Remote attackers could have caused the application to crash, disclose information or potentially execute arbitrary code. These security issues were fixed : - CVE-2014-8964: Heap-based buffer overflow in PCRE allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or have other unspecified impact via a crafted regular expression, related to an assertion that allows zero repeats (bsc#906574). - CVE-2015-2325: Heap buffer overflow in compile_branch() (bsc#924960). - CVE-2015-3210: Heap buffer overflow in pcre_compile2() / compile_regex() (bsc#933288) - CVE-2015-3217: PCRE Library Call Stack Overflow Vulnerability in match() (bsc#933878). - CVE-2015-5073: Library Heap Overflow Vulnerability in find_fixedlength() (bsc#936227). - bsc#942865: heap overflow in compile_regex() - CVE-2015-8380: The pcre_exec function in pcre_exec.c mishandled a // pattern with a \01 string, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror (bsc#957566). - CVE-2015-2327: PCRE mishandled certain patterns with internal recursive back references, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror (bsc#957567). - bsc#957598: Various security issues - CVE-2015-8381: Heap Overflow in compile_regex() (bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8382: Regular Expression Uninitialized Pointer Information Disclosure Vulnerability (ZDI-CAN-2547)(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8383: Buffer overflow caused by repeated conditional group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8384: Buffer overflow caused by recursive back reference by name within certain group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8385: Buffer overflow caused by forward reference by name to certain group(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8386: Buffer overflow caused by lookbehind assertion(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8387: Integer overflow in subroutine calls(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8388: Buffer overflow caused by certain patterns with an unmatched closing parenthesis(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8389: Infinite recursion in JIT compiler when processing certain patterns(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8390: Reading from uninitialized memory when processing certain patterns(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8391: Some pathological patterns causes pcre_compile() to run for a very long time(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8392: Buffer overflow caused by certain patterns with duplicated named groups(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8393: Information leak when running pcgrep -q on crafted binary(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8394: Integer overflow caused by missing check for certain conditions(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-8395: Buffer overflow caused by certain references(bsc#957598). - CVE-2015-2328: PCRE mishandled the /((?(R)a|(?1)))+/ pattern and related patterns with certain recursion, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression (bsc#957600). - CVE-2016-1283: The pcre_compile2 function in pcre_compile.c in PCRE mishandled certain patterns with named subgroups, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression (bsc#960837). - CVE-2016-3191: The compile_branch function in pcre_compile.c in pcre2_compile.c mishandled patterns containing an (*ACCEPT) substring in conjunction with nested parentheses, which allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow) via a crafted regular expression (bsc#971741). These non-security issues were fixed : - JIT compiler improvements - performance improvements - The Unicode data tables have been updated to Unicode 7.0.0. This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12:Update update project.

    descriptionAccording to the version of the pcre packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability : - Integer overflow in the _IO_wstr_overflow function in libio/wstrops.c in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) before 2.22 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to computing a size in bytes, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.(CVE-2015-8393) Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
