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 Huawei Local Security Checks NASL id EULEROS_SA-2020-1390.NASL description According to the versions of the ImageMagick packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - ImageMagick is an image display and manipulation tool for the X Window System. ImageMagick can read and write JPEG, TIFF, PNM, GIF, and Photo CD image formats. It can resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce, or add special effects to an image, and when finished you can either save the completed work in the original format or a different one. ImageMagick also includes command line programs for creating animated or transparent .gifs, creating composite images, creating thumbnail images, and more. ImageMagick is one of your choices if you need a program to manipulate and display images. If you want to develop your own applications which use ImageMagick code or APIs, you need to install ImageMagick-devel as well.Security Fix(es):The HorizontalFilter function in resize.c in ImageMagick before 6.8.9-9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted image file.(CVE-2014-8354)PCX parser code in ImageMagick before 6.8.9-9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read).(CVE-2014-8355)DCM decode in ImageMagick before 6.8.9-9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read).(CVE-2014-8562)The JPEG decoder in ImageMagick before 6.8.9-9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds memory access and crash).(CVE-2014-8716)Heap-based buffer overflow in ImageMagick allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted xpm file.(CVE-2014-9821)Heap-based buffer overflow in ImageMagick allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted quantum file.(CVE-2014-9822)Heap-based buffer overflow in ImageMagick allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted palm file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-9819.(CVE-2014-9823)Heap-based buffer overflow in ImageMagick allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted psd file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-9825.(CVE-2014-9824)Heap-based buffer overflow in ImageMagick allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted psd file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-9824.(CVE-2014-9825)coders/pnm.c in ImageMagick 6.9.0-1 Beta and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted png file.(CVE-2014-9837)distribute-cache.c in ImageMagick re-uses objects after they have been destroyed, which allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via unspecified vectors.(CVE-2014-9852)Memory leak in coders/rle.c in ImageMagick allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted rle file.(CVE-2014-9853)coders/tiff.c in ImageMagick allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via vectors related to the last seen 2020-05-06 modified 2020-04-15 plugin id 135519 published 2020-04-15 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2020 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/135519 title EulerOS 2.0 SP3 : ImageMagick (EulerOS-SA-2020-1390) NASL family Windows NASL id IMAGEMAGICK_7_0_5_8.NASL description The version of ImageMagick installed on the remote Windows host is 6.x prior to 6.9.8-10 or 7.x prior to 7.0.5-9.
