Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Restful Privilege Elevation Rest uses standard HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permissions methods, but these are not necessarily correlated generally with back end programs. Strict interpretation of HTTP get methods means that these HTTP Get services should not be used to delete information on the server, but there is no access control mechanism to back up this logic. This means that unless the services are properly ACL'd and the application's service implementation are following these guidelines then an HTTP request can easily execute a delete or update on the server side. The attacker identifies a HTTP Get URL such as http://victimsite/updateOrder, which calls out to a program to update orders on a database or other resource. The URL is not idempotent so the request can be submitted multiple times by the attacker, additionally, the attacker may be able to exploit the URL published as a Get method that actually performs updates (instead of merely retrieving data). This may result in malicious or inadvertent altering of data on the server.

NASL family Misc. NASL id NVIDIA_UNIX_CVE_2017_0324.NASL description The version of the NVIDIA GPU display driver installed on the remote Linux host is 304.x prior to 304.135, 340.x prior to 340.102, 361.x prior to 361.119, 375.x prior to 375.39, or 378.x prior to 378.13. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities: - Multiple integer overflow conditions exist in the kernel mode layer handler that allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-0309) - A flaw exists in the kernel mode layer handler due to improper access controls that allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2017-0310) - A flaw exists in the kernel mode layer handler due to improper access controls that allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-0311) - A flaw exists in the kernel mode layer handler due to improper validation of an input parameter. A local attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2017-0318) - A NULL pointer dereference flaw exists in the kernel mode layer handler due to improper validation of certain input. A local attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or potentially execute arbitrary code.
