Vulnerable Configurations
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.

NASL family MacOS X Local Security Checks NASL id MACOSX_FIREFOX_47.NASL description The version of Firefox installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 47. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2815, CVE-2016-2818) - An overflow condition exists that is triggered when handling HTML5 fragments in foreign contexts (e.g., under <svg> nodes). An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2819) - A use-after-free error exists that is triggered when deleting DOM table elements in last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 91545 published 2016-06-09 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2016-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/91545 title Firefox < 47 Multiple Vulnerabilities (Mac OS X) NASL family Windows NASL id MOZILLA_FIREFOX_47.NASL description The version of Firefox installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 47.

If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2815, CVE-2016-2818) A buffer overflow was discovered when parsing HTML5 fragments in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2819) A use-after-free was discovered in contenteditable mode in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2821) Jordi Chancel discovered a way to use a persistent menu within a <select> element and place this in an arbitrary location. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to spoof the addressbar contents. (CVE-2016-2822) Armin Razmdjou that the location.host property can be set to an arbitrary string after creating an invalid data: URI. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to bypass some same-origin protections. (CVE-2016-2825) A use-after-free was discovered when processing WebGL content in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2828) Tim McCormack discovered that the permissions notification can show the wrong icon when a page requests several permissions in quick succession. An attacker could potentially exploit this by tricking the user in to giving consent for access to the wrong resource. (CVE-2016-2829) It was discovered that a pointerlock can be created in a fullscreen window without user consent in some circumstances, and this pointerlock cannot be cancelled without quitting Firefox. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service or conduct clickjacking attacks. (CVE-2016-2831) John Schoenick discovered that CSS pseudo-classes can leak information about plugins that are installed but disabled. An attacker could potentially exploit this to fingerprint users. (CVE-2016-2832) Matt Wobensmith discovered that Content Security Policy (CSP) does not block the loading of cross-domain Java applets when specified by policy. An attacker could potentially exploit this to bypass CSP protections and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. (CVE-2016-2833) In addition, multiple unspecified security issues were discovered in NSS. (CVE-2016-2834).
