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.

| description | The version of Oracle E-Business installed on the remote host is missing the October 2016 Oracle Critical Patch Update (CPU). It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in the OpenSSL subcomponent in the EVP_EncodeUpdate() function within file crypto/evp/encode.c that is triggered when handling a large amount of input data. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-2105) - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in the OpenSSL subcomponent in the EVP_EncryptUpdate() function within file crypto/evp/evp_enc.c that is triggered when handling a large amount of input data after a previous call occurs to the same function with a partial block. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-2106) - Multiple flaws exist in the OpenSSL subcomponent in the aesni_cbc_hmac_sha1_cipher() function in file crypto/evp/e_aes_cbc_hmac_sha1.c and the aesni_cbc_hmac_sha256_cipher() function in file crypto/evp/e_aes_cbc_hmac_sha256.c that are triggered when the connection uses an AES-CBC cipher and AES-NI is supported by the server. A man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit these to conduct a padding oracle attack, resulting in the ability to decrypt the network traffic. (CVE-2016-2107) - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the OpenSSL subcomponent in the d2i BIO functions when reading ASN.1 data from a BIO due to invalid encoding causing a large allocation of memory. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these to cause a denial of service condition through resource exhaustion. (CVE-2016-2109) - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the OpenSSL subcomponent in the X509_NAME_oneline() function within file crypto/x509/x509_obj.c when handling very long ASN1 strings. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose the contents of stack memory. (CVE-2016-2176) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Runtime Catalog subcomponent in the iStore component that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2016-5489) - An unspecified flaw exists in the AD Utilities subcomponent in the Applications DBA component that allows a local attacker to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2016-5517) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Workflow Events subcomponent in the Shipping Execution component that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2016-5532) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Price Book subcomponent in the Advanced Pricing component that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2016-5557) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Requisition Management subcomponent in the iProcurement component that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2016-5562) - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the AD Utilities subcomponent in the DBA component that allow an authenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE- 2016-5567, CVE-2016-5570, CVE-2016-5571) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Resources Module subcomponent in the Common Applications Calendar component that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2016-5575) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Candidate Self Service subcomponent in the iRecruitment component that allows a local attacker to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2016-5581) - An unspecified flaw exists in the File Upload subcomponent in the One-to-One Fulfillment component that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact integrity. (CVE-2016-5583) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Select Application Dependencies subcomponent in the Interaction Center Intelligence component that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2016-5585) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Dispatch/Service Call Requests subcomponent in the Email Center component that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2016-5586) - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the Outcome-Result subcomponent in the Customer Interaction History component that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2016-5587, CVE-2016-5591, CVE-2016-5593) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Responsibility Management subcomponent in the CRM Technical Foundation component that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2016-5589) - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the Result-Reason subcomponent in the Customer Interaction History component that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2016-5592, CVE-2016-5595) - An unspecified flaw exists in the Default Responsibility subcomponent in the CRM Technical Foundation component that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.
