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.

    descriptionThe remote Windows host is missing security update 4034672 or cumulative update 4034681. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - A denial of service vulnerability exists when Microsoft Windows improperly handles NetBIOS packets. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause a target computer to become completely unresponsive. A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a series of TCP packets to a target system, resulting in a permanent denial of service condition. The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the Windows network stack handles NetBIOS traffic. (CVE-2017-0174) - A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Microsoft JET Database Engine that could allow remote code execution on an affected system. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. (CVE-2017-0250) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Microsoft Windows PDF Library improperly handles objects in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in a way that enables an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user. (CVE-2017-0293) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Windows Input Method Editor (IME) when IME improperly handles parameters in a method of a DCOM class. The DCOM server is a Windows component installed regardless of which languages/IMEs are enabled. An attacker can instantiate the DCOM class and exploit the system even if IME is not enabled. (CVE-2017-8591) - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Windows when the Win32k component fails to properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. (CVE-2017-8593) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Windows Search handles objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.To exploit the vulnerability, the attacker could send specially crafted messages to the Windows Search service. An attacker with access to a target computer could exploit this vulnerability to elevate privileges and take control of the computer. Additionally, in an enterprise scenario, a remote unauthenticated attacker could remotely trigger the vulnerability through an SMB connection and then take control of a target computer.The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Windows Search handles objects in memory. (CVE-2017-8620) - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the Windows Common Log File System (CLFS) driver improperly handles objects in memory. (CLFS) is a high-performance, general-purpose log file subsystem that dedicated client applications can use and multiple clients can share to optimize log access. (CVE-2017-8624) - This security update resolves a vulnerability in Windows Error Reporting (WER). The vulnerability could allow elevation of privilege if successfully exploited by an attacker. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain greater access to sensitive information and system functionality. This update corrects the way the WER handles and executes files. (CVE-2017-8633) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way JavaScript engines render when handling objects in memory in Microsoft browsers. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user.

(CVE-2017-8635) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft browser JavaScript engines render content when handling objects in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2017-8636) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way JavaScript engines render when handling objects in memory in Microsoft browsers. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user. (CVE-2017-8641) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Microsoft browsers improperly access objects in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that enables an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user. (CVE-2017-8653) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Windows Hyper-V on a host server fails to properly validate input from an authenticated user on a guest operating system. (CVE-2017-8664) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the win32k component improperly provides kernel information. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could obtain information to further compromise the users system. (CVE-2017-8666) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the Volume Manager Extension Driver component improperly provides kernel information. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could obtain information to further compromise the users system.To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would have to log on to an affected system and run a specially crafted application.The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Volume Manager Extension Driver handles objects in memory. (CVE-2017-8668) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way Microsoft browsers handle objects in memory while rendering content. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user. If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could take control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. (CVE-2017-8669)

  script_set_attribute(attribute:"description", value:
"The remote Windows host is missing security update 4034666
or cumulative update 4034665. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists when Microsoft
    Windows improperly handles NetBIOS packets. An attacker
    who successfully exploited this vulnerability could
    cause a target computer to become completely
    unresponsive. A remote unauthenticated attacker could
    exploit this vulnerability by sending a series of TCP
    packets to a target system, resulting in a permanent
    denial of service condition. The update addresses the
    vulnerability by correcting how the Windows network
    stack handles NetBIOS traffic. (CVE-2017-0174)

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Microsoft
    JET Database Engine that could allow remote code
    execution on an affected system. An attacker who
    successfully exploited this vulnerability could take
    complete control of an affected system. An attacker
    could then install programs; view, change, or delete
    data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
    (CVE-2017-0250)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when
    Microsoft Windows PDF Library improperly handles objects
    in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in a
    way that enables an attacker to execute arbitrary code
    in the context of the current user. An attacker who
    successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the
    same user rights as the current user. (CVE-2017-0293)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Windows
    Input Method Editor (IME) when IME improperly handles
    parameters in a method of a DCOM class. The DCOM server
    is a Windows component installed regardless of which
    languages/IMEs are enabled. An attacker can instantiate
    the DCOM class and exploit the system even if IME is not
    enabled. (CVE-2017-8591)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in
    Windows when the Win32k component fails to properly
    handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully
    exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in
    kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs;
    view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts
    with full user rights. (CVE-2017-8593)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when
    Windows Search handles objects in memory. An attacker
    who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take
    control of the affected system. An attacker could then
    install programs; view, change, or delete data; or
    create new accounts with full user rights.To exploit the
    vulnerability, the attacker could send specially crafted
    messages to the Windows Search service. An attacker with
    access to a target computer could exploit this
    vulnerability to elevate privileges and take control of
    the computer. Additionally, in an enterprise scenario, a
    remote unauthenticated attacker could remotely trigger
    the vulnerability through an SMB connection and then
    take control of a target computer.The security update
    addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Windows
    Search handles objects in memory. (CVE-2017-8620)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the
    Windows Common Log File System (CLFS) driver improperly
    handles objects in memory. (CVE-2017-8624)

  - This security update resolves a vulnerability in Windows
    Error Reporting (WER). The vulnerability could allow
    elevation of privilege if successfully exploited by an
    attacker. An attacker who successfully exploited this
    vulnerability could gain greater access to sensitive
    information and system functionality. This update
    corrects the way the WER handles and executes files.
    (CVE-2017-8633)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way
    JavaScript engines render when handling objects in
    memory in Microsoft browsers. The vulnerability could
    corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could
    execute arbitrary code in the context of the current
    user. An attacker who successfully exploited the
    vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the
    current user. (CVE-2017-8635)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way
    that Microsoft browser JavaScript engines render content
    when handling objects in memory. The vulnerability could
    corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could
    execute arbitrary code in the context of the current
    user. (CVE-2017-8636)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way
    JavaScript engines render when handling objects in
    memory in Microsoft browsers. The vulnerability could
    corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could
    execute arbitrary code in the context of the current
    user. An attacker who successfully exploited the
    vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the
    current user. (CVE-2017-8641)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when
    Internet Explorer improperly accesses objects in memory.
    The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way
    that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the
    context of the current user. An attacker who
    successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the
    same user rights as the current user. (CVE-2017-8651)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when
    Microsoft browsers improperly access objects in memory.
    The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way
    that enables an attacker to execute arbitrary code in
    the context of the current user. An attacker who
    successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the
    same user rights as the current user. (CVE-2017-8653)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when
    Windows Hyper-V on a host server fails to properly
    validate input from an authenticated user on a guest
    operating system. (CVE-2017-8664)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the
    win32k component improperly provides kernel information.
    An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability
    could obtain information to further compromise the users
    system. (CVE-2017-8666)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the
    Volume Manager Extension Driver component improperly
    provides kernel information. An attacker who
    successfully exploited the vulnerability could obtain
    information to further compromise the users system.To
    exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would have to
    log on to an affected system and run a specially crafted
    application.The security update addresses the
    vulnerability by correcting how Volume Manager Extension
    Driver handles objects in memory. (CVE-2017-8668)");

    NASL idSMB_NT_MS17_AUG_4034658.NASL
    descriptionThe remote Windows host is missing security update 4034658. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - A denial of service vulnerability exists when Microsoft Windows improperly handles NetBIOS packets. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause a target computer to become completely unresponsive. A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a series of TCP packets to a target system, resulting in a permanent denial of service condition. The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the Windows network stack handles NetBIOS traffic. (CVE-2017-0174) - A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Microsoft JET Database Engine that could allow remote code execution on an affected system. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. (CVE-2017-0250) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Microsoft Windows PDF Library improperly handles objects in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in a way that enables an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
