[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PROPOSAL] Cluster RECENT-36 - 15 candidates
The following cluster contains 15 candidates that were announced between July 25 and August 31, 2000. Note that the voting web site will not be updated with this cluster until late tonight. The candidates are listed in order of priority. Priority 1 and Priority 2 candidates both deal with varying levels of vendor confirmation, so they should be easy to review and it can be trusted that the problems are real. If you discover that any RECENT-XX cluster is incomplete with respect to the problems discovered during the associated time frame, please send that information to me so that candidates can be assigned. - Steve Summary of votes to use (in ascending order of "severity") ---------------------------------------------------------- ACCEPT - voter accepts the candidate as proposed NOOP - voter has no opinion on the candidate MODIFY - voter wants to change some MINOR detail (e.g. reference/description) REVIEWING - voter is reviewing/researching the candidate, or needs more info RECAST - candidate must be significantly modified, e.g. split or merged REJECT - candidate is "not a vulnerability", or a duplicate, etc. 1) Please write your vote on the line that starts with "VOTE: ". If you want to add comments or details, add them to lines after the VOTE: line. 2) If you see any missing references, please mention them so that they can be included. References help greatly during mapping. 3) Note that a "MODIFY" is treated as an "ACCEPT" when counting votes. So if you don't have sufficient information for a candidate but you don't want to NOOP, use a REVIEWING. ********** NOTE ********** NOTE ********** NOTE ********** NOTE ********** Please keep in mind that your vote and comments will be recorded and publicly viewable in the mailing list archives or in other formats. ====================================================== Candidate: CAN-2000-0812 URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2000-0812 Final-Decision: Interim-Decision: Modified: Proposed: 20001018 Assigned: 20000926 Category: SF/CF/MP/SA/AN/unknown Reference: SUN:00197 Reference: URL:http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/retrieve.pl?doctype=coll&doc=secbull/197&type=0&nav=sec.sba Reference: MISC:http://www.securityfocus.com/templates/advisory.html?id=2542 The administration module in Sun Java web server allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by uploading Java code to the module and invoke the com.sun.server.http.pagecompile.jsp92.JspServlet by requesting a URL that begins with a /servlet/ tag. Analysis ---------------- ED_PRI CAN-2000-0812 1 Vendor Acknowledgement: unknown ABSTRACTION: This appears to be the same as CAN-2000-0629. However, according to Casper Dik, CAN-2000-0629 was related to example code, but this one has more to do with a bug in the administration server itself. Thus this should remain separate from CAN-2000-0629.

Analysis ---------------- ED_PRI CAN-2000-0864 1 Vendor Acknowledgement: yes advisory Voting Section -------------- Possible votes: ACCEPT/MODIFY/NOOP/REVIEWING/RECAST/REJECT If ACCEPT or MODIFY, include reason for acceptance: VERIFIED-BY-MY-ORG, ACKNOWLEDGED-BY-VENDOR, VERIFIED-BY-SOMEONE-I-TRUST, HAS-INDEPENDENT-CONFIRMATION, or provide other reason. VOTE: ACCEPT_REASON: COMMENTS: ====================================================== Candidate: CAN-2000-0804 URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2000-0804 Final-Decision: Interim-Decision: Modified: Proposed: 20001018 Assigned: 20000925 Category: SF/CF/MP/SA/AN/unknown Reference: CONFIRM:http://www.checkpoint.com/techsupport/alerts/list_vun.html#One-way_Connection Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1 4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass the directionality check via fragmented TCP connection requests or reopening closed TCP connection requests, aka "One-way Connection Enforcement Bypass." Analysis ---------------- ED_PRI CAN-2000-0804 2 Vendor Acknowledgement: yes advisory INCLUSION: In Check Point's advisory, they say that "The directionality check is an additional layer of security which VPN-1/FireWall-1 adds to these protocols. An attack which bypasses this check is not in itself a security risk, however this check would otherwise substantially minimize the effects of [other vulnerabilities]." As such, is this more of a bug fix (or design improvement) than an inherent vulnerability or exposure? Are there comparable products that have this sort of problem? A general question is: if something is "state-of-the-art," but limitations are found in that state-of-the-art, is that a vulnerability, an exposure, or neither? And is this functionality state-of-the-art? What if the technology doesn't become "state-of-the-art" anymore - does it then become "worthy" of inclusion in CVE? Similar candidates are CAN-1999-0598 through CAN-1999-0602, which describe fundamental problems in intrusion detection systems that were discovered and publicized by Ptacek and Newsham. Also consider CAN-2000-0093, in which Red Hat Linux would use "relatively weak" DES encryption instead of MD5. Problems related to weak encryption are covered by CD:DESIGN-WEAK-ENCRYPTION. Voting Section -------------- Possible votes: ACCEPT/MODIFY/NOOP/REVIEWING/RECAST/REJECT If ACCEPT or MODIFY, include reason for acceptance: VERIFIED-BY-MY-ORG, ACKNOWLEDGED-BY-VENDOR, VERIFIED-BY-SOMEONE-I-TRUST, HAS-INDEPENDENT-CONFIRMATION, or provide other reason. VOTE: ACCEPT_REASON: COMMENTS: ====================================================== Candidate: CAN-2000-0805 URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2000-0805 Final-Decision: Interim-Decision: Modified: Proposed: 20001018 Assigned: 20000925 Category: SF/CF/MP/SA/AN/unknown Reference: CONFIRM:http://www.checkpoint.com/techsupport/alerts/list_vun.html#Retransmission_of Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1 4.1 and earlier improperly retransmits encapsulated FWS packets, even if they do not come from a valid FWZ client, aka "Retransmission of Encapsulated Packets." Analysis ---------------- ED_PRI CAN-2000-0805 3 Vendor Acknowledgement: unknown INCLUSION: The Check Point advisory says: "NOTE: This is not a vulnerability in itself, although it may be used to facilitate an attack." In other words, this is an exposure, and thus should be included in CVE. Voting Section -------------- Possible votes: ACCEPT/MODIFY/NOOP/REVIEWING/RECAST/REJECT If ACCEPT or MODIFY, include reason for acceptance: VERIFIED-BY-MY-ORG, ACKNOWLEDGED-BY-VENDOR, VERIFIED-BY-SOMEONE-I-TRUST, HAS-INDEPENDENT-CONFIRMATION, or provide other reason.

Analysis ---------------- ED_PRI CAN-2000-0806 3 Vendor Acknowledgement: unknown INCLUSION: The Check Point advisory states that "This allowed theoretical denial of service attacks" and "There is no known risk to customers because of this issue." Its solution is apparently to "strengthen" their authentication mechanism. Voting Section -------------- Possible votes: ACCEPT/MODIFY/NOOP/REVIEWING/RECAST/REJECT If ACCEPT or MODIFY, include reason for acceptance: VERIFIED-BY-MY-ORG, ACKNOWLEDGED-BY-VENDOR, VERIFIED-BY-SOMEONE-I-TRUST, HAS-INDEPENDENT-CONFIRMATION, or provide other reason.

Analysis ---------------- ED_PRI CAN-2000-0807 3 Vendor Acknowledgement: unknown Voting Section -------------- Possible votes: ACCEPT/MODIFY/NOOP/REVIEWING/RECAST/REJECT If ACCEPT or MODIFY, include reason for acceptance: VERIFIED-BY-MY-ORG, ACKNOWLEDGED-BY-VENDOR, VERIFIED-BY-SOMEONE-I-TRUST, HAS-INDEPENDENT-CONFIRMATION, or provide other reason.

Analysis ---------------- ED_PRI CAN-2000-0808 3 Vendor Acknowledgement: unknown The advisory is vague about the cause of the problem, or how "brute force" the mechanism really is. An indicator that the problem is in generating the seed is as follows: "the S/Key seed generation mechanism has been strengthened in the new Service Packs."

Analysis ---------------- ED_PRI CAN-2000-0813 3 Vendor Acknowledgement: unknown INCLUSION: This looks like it might be the same as CVE-2000-0150, however CVE-2000-0150 was announced on February 9. At the very least, the issues are closely related. CVE-2000-0150 was related to hiding PASV commands, whereas this one (a way of doing an FTP Bounce) is done with the PORT command. See ftp://ftp.cert.org/pub/tech_tips/FTP_PORT_attacks for a description of FTP bounce attacks.
