Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- HTTP DoS An attacker performs flooding at the HTTP level to bring down only a particular web application rather than anything listening on a TCP/IP connection. This denial of service attack requires substantially fewer packets to be sent which makes DoS harder to detect. This is an equivalent of SYN flood in HTTP. The idea is to keep the HTTP session alive indefinitely and then repeat that hundreds of times. This attack targets resource depletion weaknesses in web server software. The web server will wait to attacker's responses on the initiated HTTP sessions while the connection threads are being exhausted.

NASL family Gentoo Local Security Checks NASL id GENTOO_GLSA-201711-07.NASL description The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201711-07 (ImageMagick: Multiple vulnerabilities) Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in ImageMagick. Please review the referenced CVE identifiers for details. Impact : Remote attackers, by enticing a user to process a specially crafted file, could obtain sensitive information, cause a Denial of Service condition, or have other unspecified impacts. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 104515 published 2017-11-13 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2017-2018 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/104515 title GLSA-201711-07 : ImageMagick: Multiple vulnerabilities NASL family Ubuntu Local Security Checks NASL id UBUNTU_USN-3681-1.NASL description It was discovered that ImageMagick incorrectly handled certain malformed image files. If a user or automated system using ImageMagick were tricked into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute code with the privileges of the user invoking the program.
