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-2015-8325) Ben Hawkes discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly handled certain network traffic. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSH to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 15.10. (CVE-2016-1907) Thomas Hoger discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly handled untrusted X11 forwarding when the SECURITY extension is disabled. A connection configured as being untrusted could get switched to trusted in certain scenarios, contrary to expectations. (CVE-2016-1908) It was discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly handled certain X11 forwarding data. A remote authenticated attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass certain intended command restrictions. (CVE-2016-3115). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    Ben Hawkes discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly handled certain network
    traffic. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause
    OpenSSH to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only
    applied to Ubuntu 15.10. (CVE-2016-1907)
    
    Thomas Hoger discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly handled untrusted X11
    forwarding when the SECURITY extension is disabled. A connection
    configured as being untrusted could get switched to trusted in certain
    scenarios, contrary to expectations. (CVE-2016-1908)
    
    It was discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly handled certain X11
    forwarding data. A remote authenticated attacker could possibly use
    this issue to bypass certain intended command restrictions.
