Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

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.
  • Server Side Include (SSI) Injection
    An attacker can use Server Side Include (SSI) Injection to send code to a web application that then gets executed by the web server. Doing so enables the attacker to achieve similar results to Cross Site Scripting, viz., arbitrary code execution and information disclosure, albeit on a more limited scale, since the SSI directives are nowhere near as powerful as a full-fledged scripting language. Nonetheless, the attacker can conveniently gain access to sensitive files, such as password files, and execute shell commands.
  • Cross Zone Scripting
    An attacker is able to cause a victim to load content into their web-browser that bypasses security zone controls and gain access to increased privileges to execute scripting code or other web objects such as unsigned ActiveX controls or applets. This is a privilege elevation attack targeted at zone-based web-browser security. In a zone-based model, pages belong to one of a set of zones corresponding to the level of privilege assigned to that page. Pages in an untrusted zone would have a lesser level of access to the system and/or be restricted in the types of executable content it was allowed to invoke. In a cross-zone scripting attack, a page that should be assigned to a less privileged zone is granted the privileges of a more trusted zone. This can be accomplished by exploiting bugs in the browser, exploiting incorrect configuration in the zone controls, through a cross-site scripting attack that causes the attackers' content to be treated as coming from a more trusted page, or by leveraging some piece of system functionality that is accessible from both the trusted and less trusted zone. This attack differs from "Restful Privilege Escalation" in that the latter correlates to the inadequate securing of RESTful access methods (such as HTTP DELETE) on the server, while cross-zone scripting attacks the concept of security zones as implemented by a browser.
  • Cross Site Scripting through Log Files
    An attacker may leverage a system weakness where logs are susceptible to log injection to insert scripts into the system's logs. If these logs are later viewed by an administrator through a thin administrative interface and the log data is not properly HTML encoded before being written to the page, the attackers' scripts stored in the log will be executed in the administrative interface with potentially serious consequences. This attack pattern is really a combination of two other attack patterns: log injection and stored cross site scripting.
  • Command Line Execution through SQL Injection
    An attacker uses standard SQL injection methods to inject data into the command line for execution. This could be done directly through misuse of directives such as MSSQL_xp_cmdshell or indirectly through injection of data into the database that would be interpreted as shell commands. Sometime later, an unscrupulous backend application (or could be part of the functionality of the same application) fetches the injected data stored in the database and uses this data as command line arguments without performing proper validation. The malicious data escapes that data plane by spawning new commands to be executed on the host.

"Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that
may lead to privilege escalation, denial of service or information
leaks.

  - CVE-2017-7518
    Andy Lutomirski discovered that KVM is prone to an
    incorrect debug exception (#DB) error occurring while
    emulating a syscall instruction. A process inside a
    guest can take advantage of this flaw for privilege
    escalation inside a guest.

  - CVE-2017-7558 (stretch only)
    Stefano Brivio of Red Hat discovered that the SCTP
    subsystem is prone to a data leak vulnerability due to
    an out-of-bounds read flaw, allowing to leak up to 100
    uninitialized bytes to userspace.

  - CVE-2017-10661 (jessie only)
    Dmitry Vyukov of Google reported that the timerfd
    facility does not properly handle certain concurrent
    operations on a single file descriptor. This allows a
    local attacker to cause a denial of service or
    potentially execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-11600
    Bo Zhang reported that the xfrm subsystem does not
    properly validate one of the parameters to a netlink
    message. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
    can use this to cause a denial of service or potentially
    to execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-12134 / #866511 / XSA-229
    Jan H. Schoenherr of Amazon discovered that when Linux
    is running in a Xen PV domain on an x86 system, it may
    incorrectly merge block I/O requests. A buggy or
    malicious guest may trigger this bug in dom0 or a PV
    driver domain, causing a denial of service or
    potentially execution of arbitrary code.

  This issue can be mitigated by disabling merges on the underlying
  back-end block devices, e.g.:echo 2 >
  /sys/block/nvme0n1/queue/nomerges

  - CVE-2017-12146 (stretch only)
    Adrian Salido of Google reported a race condition in
    access to the'driver_override' attribute for platform
    devices in sysfs. If unprivileged users are permitted to
    access this attribute, this might allow them to gain
    privileges.

  - CVE-2017-12153
    Bo Zhang reported that the cfg80211 (wifi) subsystem
    does not properly validate the parameters to a netlink
    message. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability
    (in any user namespace with a wifi device) can use this
    to cause a denial of service.

  - CVE-2017-12154
    Jim Mattson of Google reported that the KVM
    implementation for Intel x86 processors did not
    correctly handle certain nested hypervisor
    configurations. A malicious guest (or nested guest in a
    suitable L1 hypervisor) could use this for denial of
    service.

  - CVE-2017-14106
    Andrey Konovalov discovered that a user-triggerable
    division by zero in the tcp_disconnect() function could
    result in local denial of service.

  - CVE-2017-14140
    Otto Ebeling reported that the move_pages() system call
    performed insufficient validation of the UIDs of the
    calling and target processes, resulting in a partial
    ASLR bypass. This made it easier for local users to
    exploit vulnerabilities in programs installed with the
    set-UID permission bit set.

  - CVE-2017-14156
    'sohu0106' reported an information leak in the atyfb
    video driver. A local user with access to a framebuffer
    device handled by this driver could use this to obtain
    sensitive information.

  - CVE-2017-14340
    Richard Wareing discovered that the XFS implementation
    allows the creation of files with the 'realtime' flag on
    a filesystem with no realtime device, which can result
    in a crash (oops). A local user with access to an XFS
    filesystem that does not have a realtime device can use
    this for denial of service.

  - CVE-2017-14489
    ChunYu Wang of Red Hat discovered that the iSCSI
    subsystem does not properly validate the length of a
    netlink message, leading to memory corruption. A local
    user with permission to manage iSCSI devices can use
    this for denial of service or possibly to execute
    arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-14497 (stretch only)
    Benjamin Poirier of SUSE reported that vnet headers are
    not properly handled within the tpacket_rcv() function
    in the raw packet (af_packet) feature. A local user with
    the CAP_NET_RAW capability can take advantage of this
    flaw to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow, and
    disk and memory corruption) or have other impact.

  - CVE-2017-1000111
    Andrey Konovalov of Google reported a race condition in
    the raw packet (af_packet) feature. Local users with the
    CAP_NET_RAW capability can use this for denial of
    service or possibly to execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-1000112
    Andrey Konovalov of Google reported a race condition
    flaw in the UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) code. A
    local user can use this flaw for denial of service or
    possibly to execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2017-1000251 / #875881
    Armis Labs discovered that the Bluetooth subsystem does
    not properly validate L2CAP configuration responses,
    leading to a stack-based buffer overflow. This is one of
    several vulnerabilities dubbed 'Blueborne'. A nearby
    attacker can use this to cause a denial of service or
    possibly to execute arbitrary code on a system with
    Bluetooth enabled.

  - CVE-2017-1000252 (stretch only)
    Jan H. Schoenherr of Amazon reported that the KVM
    implementation for Intel x86 processors did not
    correctly validate interrupt injection requests. A local
    user with permission to use KVM could use this for
    denial of service.

  - CVE-2017-1000370
    The Qualys Research Labs reported that a large argument
    or environment list can result in ASLR bypass for 32-bit
    PIE binaries.

  - CVE-2017-1000371
    The Qualys Research Labs reported that a large argument
    or environment list can result in a stack/heap clash for
    32-bit PIE binaries.

  - CVE-2017-1000380
    Alexander Potapenko of Google reported a race condition
    in the ALSA (sound) timer driver, leading to an
    information leak. A local user with permission to access
    sound devices could use this to obtain sensitive
    information.

Debian disables unprivileged user namespaces by default, but if they
are enabled (via the kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone sysctl) then
CVE-2017-11600, CVE-2017-14497 and CVE-2017-1000111 can be exploited
by any local user."

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the parallels-server-bm-release / vzkernel / etc packages installed, the Virtuozzo installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - Kernel crash due to missing error handling for negatively instantiated keys. - A stack buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the Bluetooth subsystem of the Linux kernel processed pending L2CAP configuration responses from a client. On systems with the stack protection feature enabled in the kernel an unauthenticated attacker able to initiate a connection to a system via Bluetooth could use this flaw to crash the system. Due to the nature of the stack protection feature, code execution cannot be fully ruled out, although we believe it is unlikely. - The iscsi_if_rx function in drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging incorrect length validation. Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Virtuozzo security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

  • NASL familyUbuntu Local Security Checks
    NASL idUBUNTU_USN-3469-2.NASL
    descriptionUSN-3469-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. This update provides the corresponding updates for the Linux Hardware Enablement (HWE) kernel from Ubuntu 16.04 LTS for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Anthony Perard discovered that the Xen virtual block driver did not properly initialize some data structures before passing them to user space. A local attacker in a guest VM could use this to expose sensitive information from the host OS or other guest VMs. (CVE-2017-10911) Bo Zhang discovered that the netlink wireless configuration interface in the Linux kernel did not properly validate attributes when handling certain requests. A local attacker with the CAP_NET_ADMIN could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-12153) It was discovered that the nested KVM implementation in the Linux kernel in some situations did not properly prevent second level guests from reading and writing the hardware CR8 register. A local attacker in a guest could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). It was discovered that the key management subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly restrict key reads on negatively instantiated keys. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-12192) It was discovered that an integer overflow existed in the sysfs interface for the QLogic 24xx+ series SCSI driver in the Linux kernel. A local privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-14051) It was discovered that the ATI Radeon framebuffer driver in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize a data structure returned to user space. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2017-14156) Dave Chinner discovered that the XFS filesystem did not enforce that the realtime inode flag was settable only on filesystems on a realtime device. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-14340) ChunYu Wang discovered that the iSCSI transport implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate data structures. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2017-14489) It was discovered that the generic SCSI driver in the Linux kernel did not properly initialize data returned to user space in some situations.

  • NASL familyDebian Local Security Checks
    NASL idDEBIAN_DLA-1099.NASL
    descriptionSeveral vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks. CVE-2017-7482 Shi Lei discovered that RxRPC Kerberos 5 ticket handling code does not properly verify metadata, leading to information disclosure, denial of service or potentially execution of arbitrary code. CVE-2017-7542 An integer overflow vulnerability in the ip6_find_1stfragopt() function was found allowing a local attacker with privileges to open raw sockets to cause a denial of service. CVE-2017-7889 Tommi Rantala and Brad Spengler reported that the mm subsystem does not properly enforce the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM protection mechanism, allowing a local attacker with access to /dev/mem to obtain sensitive information or potentially execute arbitrary code. CVE-2017-10661 Dmitry Vyukov of Google reported that the timerfd facility does not properly handle certain concurrent operations on a single file descriptor. This allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service or potentially to execute arbitrary code. CVE-2017-10911 / XSA-216 Anthony Perard of Citrix discovered an information leak flaw in Xen blkif response handling, allowing a malicious unprivileged guest to obtain sensitive information from the host or other guests. CVE-2017-11176 It was discovered that the mq_notify() function does not set the sock pointer to NULL upon entry into the retry logic. An attacker can take advantage of this flaw during a userspace close of a Netlink socket to cause a denial of service or potentially cause other impact. CVE-2017-11600 bo Zhang reported that the xfrm subsystem does not properly validate one of the parameters to a netlink message. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can use this to cause a denial of service or potentially to execute arbitrary code. CVE-2017-12134 / #866511 / XSA-229 Jan H. Sch&ouml;nherr of Amazon discovered that when Linux is running in a Xen PV domain on an x86 system, it may incorrectly merge block I/O requests. A buggy or malicious guest may trigger this bug in dom0 or a PV driver domain, causing a denial of service or potentially execution of arbitrary code. This issue can be mitigated by disabling merges on the underlying back-end block devices, e.g.: echo 2 > /sys/block/nvme0n1/queue/nomerges CVE-2017-12153 bo Zhang reported that the cfg80211 (wifi) subsystem does not properly validate the parameters to a netlink message. Local users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability on a system with a wifi device can use this to cause a denial of service. CVE-2017-12154 Jim Mattson of Google reported that the KVM implementation for Intel x86 processors did not correctly handle certain nested hypervisor configurations. A malicious guest (or nested guest in a suitable L1 hypervisor) could use this for denial of service. CVE-2017-14106 Andrey Konovalov of Google reported that a specific sequence of operations on a TCP socket could lead to division by zero. A local user could use this for denial of service. CVE-2017-14140 Otto Ebeling reported that the move_pages() system call permitted users to discover the memory layout of a set-UID process running under their real user-ID. This made it easier for local users to exploit vulnerabilities in programs installed with the set-UID permission bit set. CVE-2017-14156

    descriptionAccording to the version of the vzkernel package and the readykernel-patch installed, the Virtuozzo installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - ChunYu Wang from Red Hat found a netlink use-after-free issue by syzkaller. Access to already freed memory (groups in struct netlink_sock) could cause host crash or memory corruption. - An unprivileged user inside a container could cause a denial of service (kernel crash in user_read() function) using a specially crafted sequence of system calls. - The iscsi_if_rx function in drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging incorrect length validation. Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Virtuozzo security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    descriptionAccording to the version of the vzkernel package and the readykernel-patch installed, the Virtuozzo installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - An unprivileged user inside a container could cause a denial of service (kernel crash in user_read() function) using a specially crafted sequence of system calls. - The iscsi_if_rx function in drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c in the Linux kernel through 4.13.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) by leveraging incorrect length validation. Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Virtuozzo security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
