Candidate Modified ip_input.c in BSD-derived TCP/IP implementations allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash or hang) via crafted packets. CA-98-13-tcp-denial-of-service 19981223 Re: CERT Advisory CA-98.13 - TCP/IP Denial of Service http://www.openbsd.org/errata23.html#tcpfix 5707 Frech Northcutt, Wall Christey A Bugtraq posting indicates that the bug has to do with "short packets with certain options set," so the description should be modified accordingly. But is this the same as CVE-1999-0052? That one is related to nestea (CVE-1999-0257) and probably the one described in BUGTRAQ:19981023 nestea v2 against freebsd 3.0-Release The patch for nestea is in ip_input.c around line 750. The patches for CVE-1999-0001 are in lines 388&446. So, CVE-1999-0001 is different from CVE-1999-0257 and CVE-1999-0052. The FreeBSD patch for CVE-1999-0052 is in line 750. So, CVE-1999-0257 and CVE-1999-0052 may be the same, though CVE-1999-0052 should be RECAST since this bug affects Linux and other OSes besides FreeBSD. XF:teardrop(338) This assignment was based solely on references to the CERT advisory. The description for BID:190, which links to CVE-1999-0052 (a FreeBSD advisory), notes that the patches provided by FreeBSD in CERT:CA-1998-13 suggest a connection between CVE-1999-0001 and CVE-1999-0052. CERT:CA-1998-13 is too vague to be sure without further analysis. Candidate Modified MIME buffer overflow in email clients, e.g. Solaris mailtool and Outlook. CA-98.10.mime_buffer_overflows outlook-long-name 00175 MS98-008 Baker, Cole, Collins, Dik, Landfield, Magdych, Northcutt, Wall Frech Christey Shostack Extremely minor, but I believe e-mail is the correct term.

MSKB:Q154174 MSKB:Q154174 (CVE-1999-0015) and MSKB:Q179129 (CVE-1999-0104) indicate that CVE-1999-0015 was fixed in NT SP3, but CVE-1999-0104 was not.

Candidate Proposed File creation and deletion, and remote execution, in the BSD line printer daemon (lpd). NAI-20 bsd-lpd Frech, Hill, Northcutt Baker Christey This should be split into three separate problems based on the SNI advisory. But there's newer information to further complicate things. What do we do about this one? in 1997 or so, SNI did an advisory on this problem. In early 2000, it was still discovered to be present in some Linux systems. So an SF-DISCOVERY content decision might say that this is a long enough time between the two, so this should be recorded separately. But they're the same codebase... so if we keep them in the same entry, how do we make sure that this entry reflects that some new information has been discovered? The use of dot notation may help in this regard, to use one dot for the original problem as discovered in 1997, and another dot for the resurgence of the problem in 2000. We should merge these. Perhaps this should be NAI-19 instead of NAI-20? The original Bugtraq post for the SNI advisory suggests SNI-19: BUGTRAQ:19971002 SNI-19:BSD lpd vulnerability URL:SNI-19:BSD lpd vulnerability Also add: BUGTRAQ:19971021 SNI-19: BSD lpd vulnerabilities (UPDATE) URL:http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=87747479514310&w=2 However, archives of "NAI-0020" point to the lpd vuln. If I recall correctly, some of the NAI advisory numbers got switched when NAI acquired SNI. Candidate Modified Buffer overflow in wu-ftp from PASV command causes a core dump. ftp-args Baker, Frech, Ozancin Balinsky Christey Don't know what this is. Is this the LIST Core dump vulnerability?

CA-96.08.pcnfsd rpc-pcnfsd Collins, Frech, Landfield, Northcutt, Shostack Baker Christey This candidate should be SPLIT, since there are two separate software flaws. One is a symlink race and the other is a shell metacharacter problem.

Should this be more specific in the description? This one also affects SGI OSes, ref SGI Security Advisory 19981004-PX which is in the SGI cluster, shouldn't these be cross-referenced as the same vuln affects multiple OSes. This appears to be subsumed by CVE-1999-0215 Candidate Proposed IRIX and AIX automountd services (autofsd) allow remote users to execute root commands.

Dan Bernstein, author of Qmail, says that this is not a vulnerability in qmail because Unix has built-in resource limits that can restrict the size of a qmail process; other limits can be specified by the administrator. See http://cr.yp.to/qmail/venema.html Significant discussion of this issue took place on the qmail list. The fundamental question appears to be whether application software should set its own limits, or rely on limits set by the parent operating system (in this case, UNIX). Also, some people said that the only problem was that the suggested configuration was not well documented, but this was refuted by others. See the following threads at http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/1997/06/threads.html "Denial of service (qmail-smtpd)" "qmail-dos-2.c, another denial of service" "[PATCH] denial of service" "just another qmail denial-of-service" "the UNIX way" "Time for a reality check" Also see Bugtraq threads on a different vulnerability that is related to this topic: BUGTRAQ:19990903 Web servers / possible DOS Attack / mime header flooding http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/bugtraq/1998_3/0742.html http://cr.yp.to/qmail/venema.html Berstein rejects this as a vulnerability, claiming this is a slander campaign by Wietse Venema. His page states this is not a qmail problem, rather it is a UNIX problem that many apps can consume all available memory, and that the administrator is responsible to set limits in the OS, rather than expect applications to individually prevent memory exhaustion. CAN 1999-0250 does appear to be a duplicate of this entry, based on the research I have done so far. There were two different bugtraq postings, but the second one references the first, stating that the new exploit uses perl instead of shell scripting to accomplish the same attack/exploit. http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/6970 http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/6969 http://cr.yp.to/qmail/venema.html Should probably reject CVE-1999-0250, and add these references to this Candidate. http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2237 [Baker changed vote from REVIEWING to ACCEPT] qmail-dos-1.c, as published by Wietse Venema (CVE-1999-0250) in "BUGTRAQ:19970612 Denial of service (qmail-smtpd)", does not use any RCPT commands. Instead, it sends long strings of "X" characters. A followup by "super@UFO.ORG" includes an exploit that claims to do the same thing; however, that exploit does not send long strings of X characters - it sends a large number of RCPT commands. It appears that super@ufo.org followed up to the wrong message. NOTE: the ufo.org domain was purchased by another party in 2003, so the current owner is not associated with any statements by "super@ufo.org" that were made before 2003. qmail-dos-2.c, as published by Wietse Venema (CVE-1999-0144) in "BUGTRAQ:19970612 qmail-dos-2.c, another denial of service attack" sends a large number of RCPT commands.

The references for XF:ftp-pwless are not specific enough, e.g. in terms of version numbers. Perhaps this candidate should be rejected due to insufficient information. Candidate Proposed In older versions of Sendmail, an attacker could use a pipe character to execute root commands. smtp-pipe Frech, Northcutt Prosser Baker, Christey Shostack there was a 'To: |' and a 'From: |' attack, which I think are seperate. older vulnerability, but one additional reference is- The Ultimate Sendmail Hole List by Markus Hübner @ bau2.uibk.ac.at/matic/buglist.htm '|PROGRAM ' Description needs to be more specific to distinguish between this and CVE-1999-0203, as alluded to by Adam Shostack Candidate Modified NFS cache poisoning. nfs-cache Baker, Frech, Northcutt Shostack Prosser Christey need more data need more refs Add period to the end of the description. Candidate Proposed NFS allows attackers to read and write any file on the system by specifying a false UID. nfs-uid Frech, Northcutt Baker Shostack this is not a vulnerability but a design feature. Maybe we should reword it so that it is clear that this was a problem to something like: "A remote attacker could read/write files to the system with root-level permissions on NFS servers that fail to properly check the UID."

However both of these rdist BO's affect many more OSs than just Sun, i.e., BSD/OS 2.1, DEC OSF's, AIX, FreeBSD, SCO, SGI, etc. Believe this falls into the SF-codebase content decision XF:rdist-bo (error msg formation) XF:rdist-bo2 (execute code) XF:rdist-bo3 (execute user-created code) XF:rdist-sept97 (root from local) Duplicate of CVE-1999-0022 (SUN:00179 is referenced in CERT:CA-97.23.rdist), but as Mike and Andre noted, there are multiple flaws here, so a RECAST may be necessary. As currently phrasedm thissa duplicate of CVE-1999-0022 Based on our new philosophy, this should be recast/merged or re-described. Candidate Proposed Denial of service in Ascend and 3com routers, which can be rebooted by sending a zero length TCP option. Bishop, Cole, Northcutt, Ozancin, Shostack Baker, Blake Armstrong, Frech, Landfield, Wall Christey, Levy possibly XF:ascend-kill I can't find a reference that lists both routers in the same reference. Comment: There is a reference about the zero length TCP option in BugTraq on Feb 5, 1999 and it mentions Cisco, but not directly Ascend or 3Com. CIAC Advisory I-038 mentions vulnerabilities in Ascend, but does not mention TCP. CIAC Advisory I-052 mentions 3Com vulnerabilities, but not TCP. Too confusing withour better references.

This candidate came from CyberCop Scanner 2.4/2.5, which only reports this as a DoS problem. If SUN:00172 is an advisory for this, then it may be a duplicate of CVE-1999-0055. There appears to be overlap with other references as well. HOWEVER, this particular one deals with a DoS in rpcbind - which isn't mentioned in the sources for CVE-1999-0055. BID 148 Candidate Modified Denial of service of inetd on Linux through SYN and RST packets. 19971130 Linux inetd.. linux-inetd-dos HPSBUX9803-077 hp-inetd Hill Baker, Frech Meunier The location of the vulnerability, whether in the Linux kernel or the application, is debatable. Any program making the same (reasonnable) assumption is vulnerable, i.e., implements the same vulnerability: "Assumption that TCP-three-way handshake is complete after calling Linux kernel function accept(), which returns socket after getting SYN. Result is process death by SIGPIPE" Moreover, whether it results in DOS (to third parties) depends on the process that made the assumption. I think that the present entry should be split, one entry for every application that implements the vulnerability (really describing threat instances, which is what other people think about when we talk about vulnerabilities), and one entry for the Linux kernel that allows the vulnerability to happen. XF:hp-inetd XF:linux-inetd-dos Since we have an hpux bulletin, the description should not specifically say Linux, should it? It applies to mulitple OS and should be likely either modified, or in extreme case, recast Candidate Proposed Attackers can do a denial of service of IRC by crashing the server. Baker, Northcutt Christey, Frech Would reconsider if any references were available. No references available, combined with extremely vague description, equals REJECT. Candidate Proposed Denial of service in Cisco IOS web server allows attackers to reboot the router using a long URL. Baker Frech, Levy, Shostack Balinsky, Northcutt, Wall Ziese Christey I follow cisco announcements and problems pretty closely, and haven't seen this. Source? XF:cisco-web-crash XF:cisco-web-crash has no additional references. I can't find any references in Bugtraq or Cisco either. This bug is supposedly tested by at least one security product, but that product's database doesn't have any references either. So a question becomes, how did it make it into at least two security companies' databases? BUGTGRAQ: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/60159 BID 1154 The vulnerability is addressed by a vendor acknowledgement. This one, if recast to reflect that "...after using a long url..." should be replaced with "...A defect in multiple releases of Cisco IOS software will cause a Cisco router or switch to halt and reload if the IOS HTTP service is enabled, browsing to "http://router-ip/anytext?/" is attempted, and the enable password is supplied when requested. This defect can be exploited to produce a denial of service (DoS) attack." Then I can accept this and mark it as "Verfied by my Company". If it can't be recast because this (long uri) is diffferent then our release (special url construction). [Christey changed vote from REVIEWING to REJECT] Elias Levy's suggested reference is CVE-2000-0380. I don't think that Kevin's description is really addressing this either.

Possibly: XF:linux-pop3d (mktemp() leads to reading e-mail) At first glance this might look like CVE-1999-0123 or CVE-1999-0125, however this particular candidate arises out of a brief mention of the problem in a larger posting which discusses CVE-1999-0123 (which may be the same bug as CVE-1999-0125). See the following phrase in the Bugtraq post: "one such example of this is in.pop3d" However, the original source of this candidate's description explicitly mentions shadowed passwords, though it has no references to help out here. Candidate Proposed Linux cfingerd could be exploited to gain root access.

[Frech changed vote from REVIEWING to REJECT] If the reference I previously supplied is correct, then it appears as if the poster modified the source using authorized access to make it vulnerable.

Dan Bernstein, author of Qmail, says that this is not a vulnerability in qmail because Unix has built-in resource limits that can restrict the size of a qmail process; other limits can be specified by the administrator. See http://cr.yp.to/qmail/venema.html Significant discussion of this issue took place on the qmail list. The fundamental question appears to be whether application software should set its own limits, or rely on limits set by the parent operating system (in this case, UNIX). Also, some people said that the only problem was that the suggested configuration was not well documented, but this was refuted by others. See the following threads at http://www.ornl.gov/its/archives/mailing-lists/qmail/1997/06/threads.html "Denial of service (qmail-smtpd)" "qmail-dos-2.c, another denial of service" "[PATCH] denial of service" "just another qmail denial-of-service" "the UNIX way" "Time for a reality check" Also see Bugtraq threads on a different vulnerability that is related to this topic: BUGTRAQ:19990903 Web servers / possible DOS Attack / mime header flooding http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/bugtraq/1998_3/0742.html This appears to be the same vulnerability listed in CAN 1999-0144. In reading through both bugtraq postings, the one that is referenced by 0144 is based on a shell code exploit to cause memory exhaustion. The bugtraq posting referenced by this entry refers explicitly to the prior posting for 0144, and states that the same effect could be accomplished by a perl exploit, which was then attached. http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/6969 CVE-1999-0144 http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/6970 CVE-1999-0250 Both references should be added to CVE-1999-0144, and CVE-1999-0250 should likely be rejected.

Instead, it sends long strings of "X" characters. A followup by "super@UFO.ORG" includes an exploit that claims to do the same thing; however, that exploit does not send long strings of X characters - it sends a large number of RCPT commands.

The patches for CVE-1999-0001 are in lines 388&446. So, CVE-1999-0001 is different from CVE-1999-0257 and CVE-1999-0052. The FreeBSD patch for CVE-1999-0052 is in line 750. So, CVE-1999-0257 and CVE-1999-0052 may be the same, though CVE-1999-0052 should be RECAST since this bug affects Linux and other OSes besides FreeBSD. Also see BUGTRAQ:19990909 CISCO and nestea. Finally, note that there is no fundamental difference between nestea and nestea2/nestea-v2; they are different ports that exploit the same problem.

We will refer to the "previous report" as CVE-1999-0287, which could be found at: http://oliver.efri.hr/~crv/security/bugs/NT/httpd41.html 0287 describes an exploit via the "template" hidden variable. The exploit describes manually editing the HTML form to change the filename to read from the template variable. The exploit as described in 0467 encodes the template variable directly into the URL. However, hidden variables are also encoded into the URL, which would have looked the same to the web server regardless of the exploit. Therefore 0287 and 0467 are the same.

Candidate Proposed Jolt ICMP attack causes a denial of service in Windows 95 and Windows NT systems. Blake, Cole Frech, Wall Bishop, Landfield, Northcutt, Ozancin Meunier Armstrong, Baker, LeBlanc, Levy Christey Invalid ICMP datagram fragments causes a denial of service in Windows 95 and Windows NT systems. Reference: Q154174. Jolt is also known as sPING, ICMP bug, Icenewk, and Ping of Death. It is a modified teardrop 2 attack. XF:nt-ssping ADDREF XF:ping-death ADDREF XF:teardrop-mod ADDREF XF:mpeix-echo-request-dos I can't tell whether the Jolt exploit at: http://www.securityfocus.com/templates/archive.pike?list=1&date=1997-06-28&msg=Pine.BSF.3.95q.970629163422.3264A-200000@apollo.tomco.net is exploiting any different flaw than teardrop does. [Christey changed vote from NOOP to REVIEWING] Jolt (original) is basically just a fragmented oversized ICMP that kills Win boxes ala Ping of Death. Teardrop is altering the offset in fragmented tcp packets so that the end of subsequent fragments is inside first packet... Teardrop 2 is UDP packets, if I remember right. Seems like Jolt (original, not jolt 2) is just exploit code that creates a ping of death (CVE 1999-0128) I tend to agree with Baker. [Armstrong changed vote from REVIEWING to REJECT] This code does not use fragment overlap. It is simply a large ICMP echo request. See the SCO advisory at: http://www.securityfocus.com/templates/advisory.html?id=1411 which may further clarify the issue. This is a hodge-podge of DoS attacks. Jolt isn't the same thing as ping of death - POD was an oversized ICMP packet, Jolt froze Linux and Solaris (and I think not NT), IIRC Jolt2 did get NT boxes. Teardrop and teardrop2 were related attacks (usually ICMP frag attacks), but each of these is a distinct vulnerability, affected a discrete group of systems, and should have distinct CVE numbers. CVE entries should be precise as to what the problem is. I agree with Leblanc in that Jolt is multi-faceted. Jolt has characteristics of Ping of Death AND teardrop, but it doesn't do either exactly. Moreover, it sends a truncated IP fragment. I disagree with Armstrong; jolt uses overlapping fragments. It's not a simple ping of death either. It may be that the author's intent was to construct a "super attack" somehow combining elements of other vulnerabilities to try to make it more potent. In any case it succeeded in confusing the CVE board :-). I notice that Jolt uses echo replies (type 0) instead of echo requests (to get past firewalls?). Jolt is peculiar in that it also sends numerous overlapping fragments. The "Pascal Simulator" :-) says it sends: - 172 fragments of length 400 with offset starting at 5120 and > 3)), which eventually results in sending fragments inside an already > 3) is greater than 5120, which occurs when n is reaches 108. This would look a bit like TearDrop if fragments were reassembled on-the-fly. - 1 fragment such that the total length of all the fragments is greater than 65535 (my calculation is 172*380 + 418 = 65778; the comment about 65538 must be wrong). The last packet is size 418 according to the IP header but the buffer is of size 400. The sendto takes as argument the size of the buffer so a truncated packet is sent. So, I am not sure if the problem is because the last packet doesn't extend to the payload it says it has or because the total size of all fragments is greater than 65535. The author says it may take more than one sending, so perhaps this has to do with an incorrect error handling and recovery. One would need to experiment and isolate each of those characteristics and test them independently. Inasmuch as each of those things is likely a different vulnerability, then I agree with Leblanc that this entry should be split. I'll try that if I ever get bored. Jolt 2 should also have a different entry (see below). Jolt 2 runs in an infinite loop, sending the same fragmented IP packet, which can pretend to be "ICMP" or "UDP" data; however this is meaningless, as it's just a late fragment of an IP packet. The attack works only as long as packets are sent. According to http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/62170 the packets are truncated, and would overflow over the 65535 byte limit, which is similar to Jolt. Note that Jolt does send that much data whereas jolt2 doesn't. Since jolt2 is simpler and narrower than jolt, and it has weaker consequences, I believe that it's a different vulnerability. "Jolt 2 vulnerability causes a temporary denial-of-service in Windows-type OSes" would be a title for it.

They both have the same X-Force reference. BID:342 suggests that there are two. http://www.debian.org/security/1999/19990215a suggests that there are two. However, CVE-1999-0373 is written up in a fashion that is too general; and both XF:linux-super-bo and XF:linux-super-logging-bo refer to CVE-1999-0373. CVE-1999-0373 may need to be split. From what I can surmise, ISS released the original advisory (attached to linux-super-bo), and Sekure SDI expanded on it by releasing another related overflow in syslog (which is linux-super-logging-bo). When I was originally assigning these issues, I placed both XF references and the ISS advisory on the -0373 candidate, since there was nothing else available. Based on the information above, I'd request that XF:linux-super-logging-bo be removed from CVE-1999-0373. Given Andre's feedback, these are different issues. CVE-1999-0373 does not need to be split because the ISS reference is sufficient to distinguish that CVE from this candidate; however, the CVE-1999-0373 description should probably be modified slightly.

Frech Christey, Wall Baker, Northcutt Nmap and queso are the tip of the iceberg and not the most advanced ways to accomplish this.

Unless we believe that all systems should always use identical packet header/identical responses, in which case the protocol should not permit variation. Candidate Modified The Expression Evaluator sample application in ColdFusion allows remote attackers to read or delete files on the server via exprcalc.cfm, which does not restrict access to the server properly. ASB-001 coldfusion-expression-evaluator 115 Balinsky, Frech, Ozancin Wall Baker Christey The reference should be ASB99-01 (Expression Evaluator Security Issues) make application plural since there are three sample applications (openfile.cfm, displayopenedfile.cfm, and exprcalc.cfm). The CD:SF-EXEC and CD:SF-LOC content decisions apply here. Since there are 3 separate "executables" with the same (or similar) problem, we need to make sure that CD:SF-EXEC determines what to do here. There is evidence that some of these .cfm scripts have an "include" file, and if so, then CD:SF-LOC says that we shouldn't make separate entries for each of these scripts. On the other hand, the initial L0pht discovery didn't include all 3 of these scripts, and as far as I can tell, Allaire had patched the first problem before the others were discovered. So, CD:DISCOVERY-DATE may argue that we should split these because the problems were discovered and patched at different times. In any case, this candidate can not be accepted until the Editorial Board has accepted the CD:SF-EXEC, CD:SF-LOC, and CD:DISCOVERY-DATE content decisions. Candidate Proposed Local users can perform a denial of service in Alpha Linux, using MILO to force a reboot. linux-milo-halt Frech Baker, Northcutt Wall Reject based on beta copy.

In NTBUGTRAQ:19990409 Webcom's CGI Guestbook for Win32 web servers Mnemonix says that he had previously reported on a similar problem. Let's refer to the NTBugtraq posting as CVE-1999-0467. We will refer to the "previous report" as CVE-1999-0287, which can be found at: http://oliver.efri.hr/~crv/security/bugs/NT/httpd41.html 0287 describes an exploit via the "template" hidden variable. The exploit describes manually editing the HTML form to change the filename to read from the template variable. The exploit as described in 0467 encodes the template variable directly into the URL. However, hidden variables are also encoded into the URL, which would have looked the same to the web server regardless of the exploit. Therefore 0287 and 0467 are the same. The CD:SF-EXEC content decision also applies here. We have 2 programs, wguest.exe and rguest.exe, which appear to have the same problem. CD:SF-EXEC needs to be accepted by the Editorial Board before this candidate can be converted into a CVE entry. When finalized, CD:SF-EXEC will decide whether this candidate should be split or not. BID:2024 Candidate Proposed Internet Explorer 5.0 allows window spoofing, allowing a remote attacker to spoof a legitimate web site and capture information from the client. 19990409 IE 5.0 security vulnerabilities - %01 bug again ie-window-spoof Wall Baker, Northcutt Christey, Frech, LeBlanc Reference: Microsoft Security Bulletin MS99-012 DUPE CVE-1999-0488 Defer to Christey's vote.

Candidate Modified Local attackers can conduct a denial of service in Midnight Commander 4.x with a symlink attack. 19980315 Midnight Commander /tmp race Baker Frech Christey XF:midnight-commander-symlink-dos XF:midnight-commander-symlink-dos(3505) Candidate Modified Denial of service in AOL Instant Messenger when a remote attacker sends a malicious hyperlink to the receiving client, potentially causing a system crash. 19990420 AOL Instant Messenger URL Crash Baker Frech Christey XF:aol-im. XF:aol-im appears to be related to the problem discussed in BUGTRAQ:19980224 AOL Instant Messanger Bug This one is related to BUGTRAQ:19990420 AOL Instant Messenger URL Crash Candidate Modified Internet Explorer 4.0 and 5.0 allows a remote attacker to execute security scripts in a different security context using malicious URLs, a variant of the "cross frame" vulnerability. MS99-012 Baker, Landfield Frech, Wall Christey, Ozancin XF:ie-mshtml-crossframe (source: MSKB:Q168485) CVE-1999-0469 appears to be a duplicate; prefer this one over that one, since this one has an MS advisory. Confirm with Microsoft that these are really duplicates. Also review CVE-1999-0487, which appears to be a similar bug. Candidate Modified MSHTML.DLL in Internet Explorer 5.0 allows a remote attacker to paste a file name into the file upload intrinsic control, a variant of "untrusted scripted paste" as described in MS:MS98-013. MS99-015 Levy Wall Baker, Ozancin Prosser Christey Frech Wasn't Untrusted scripted paste MS98-015? I can find no mention of a clipboard in either. I cannot proceed on this one without further clarification. (source: MS:MS99-012) agree with Andre here. The Untrusted Scripted paste vulnerability was originally addressed in MS98-015 and it is in the file upload intrinsic control in which an attacker can paste the name of a file on the target's drive in the control and a form submission would then send that file from the attacked machine to the remote web site. This one has nothing to do with the clipboard. What the advisory mentioned here, MS99-012, does is replace the MSHTML parsing engine which is supposed to fix the original Untrusted Scripted Paste issue and a variant, as well as the two Cross-Frame variants and a privacy issue in IMG SRC. The vulnerability that allowed reading of a user's clipboard is the Forms 2.0 Active X control vulnerability discussed in MS99-01 The advisory should have been listed as MS99-012. CVE-1999-0468 describes the untrusted scripted paste problem in MS99-012. Pending response to guidance request. 12/6/01. Candidate Modified MSHTML.DLL in Internet Explorer 5.0 allows a remote attacker to learn information about a local user's files via an IMG SRC tag. MS99-012 Landfield, Wall Frech Baker, Ozancin Christey XF:ie-scriplet-fileread Duplicate of CVE-1999-0347? Candidate Proposed The ffingerd 1.19 allows remote attackers to identify users on the target system based on its responses. Apr23,1999 Armstrong, Collins, Northcutt Baker, Blake, Frech, Shostack Christey, Cole, Landfield, Wall Ozancin isn't that what finger is supposed to do? Maybe we need a new category of "unsafe system utilities and protocols" Ffingerd 1.19 allows remote attackers to differentiate valid and invalid usernames on the target system based on its responses to finger queries. CHANGEREF BUGTRAQ [canonicalize] BUGTRAQ:19990423 Ffingerd privacy issues http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=92488772121313&w=2 Here's the nature of the problem. (1) FFingerd allows users to decide not to be fingered, printing a message "That user does not want to be fingered" (2) If the fingered user does not exist, then FFingerd's intended default is to print that the user does not want to be fingered; however, the error message has a period at the end. Thus, ffingerd can allow someone to determine who valid users on the server are, *in spite of* the intended functionality of ffingerd itself. Thus this exposure should be viewed in light of the intended functionality of the application, as opposed to the common usage of the finger protocol in general. Also, the vendor posted a followup and said that a patch was available.

CA-91.18.Active.Internet.tftp.Attacks Blake, Hill, Northcutt Frech Baker Christey XF:linux-tftp XF:linux-tftp refers to CVE-1999-0183 Candidate Proposed NETBIOS share information may be published through SNMP registry keys in NT. Baker, Northcutt, Ozancin, Shostack, Wall Frech LeBlanc Change wording to 'Windows NT.' XF:snmp-netbios Share info can be obtained via SNMP queries, but I question whether this is a vulnerability. The system can be configured not to do this, and one may argue that SNMP itself is an insecure configuration. Furthermore, the share information isn't published via registry keys - the description could refer to more than one actual issue. SNMP is meant to allow people to obtain information about systems. I'm willing to discuss this with the rest of the board. Candidate Proposed A Unix account has a guessable password. Baker, Northcutt, Shostack Frech, Meunier Christey Guessable falls into the class of CVE-1999-0502, since I can guess a default, null, etc. password. Suggest changing to something like "has an existing non-default password that can be guessed." I'm also including default passwords in this entry.

CD:CF-PASS needs to be accepted by the Editorial Board before this candidate can be converted into a CVE entry; the final version of CD:CF-PASS may require using a different LOA than this candidate is currently using. [Meunier changed vote from ACCEPT to RECAST] This relates only to account password technology, so this candidate is independent of the operating system, application, web site or other application of this technology. The appropriate (natural) level of abstraction is therefore without specifying that it is for UNIX. Change the description to "An account has a guessable password other than default, null, blank." This should satisfy Andre's objection. This Candidate should be merged with any candidate relating to account password technology where "Unix" in the original description can be replaced by something else.

CA-96.11 Northcutt, Wall Frech Baker Christey What is the right level of abstraction to use here? Should we combine all possible interpreters into a single entry, or have a different entry for each one? I've often seen Perl separated from other interpreters - is it included by default in some Windows web server configurations? Add tcsh, zsh, bash, rksh, ksh, ash, to support search.

Both interpretations were used in assigning this candidate. The intention of this candidate is to cover configurations in which the admin has explicitly enabled relaying. Other cases in which the application *intends* to prvent relaying, but there is some specific input that bypasses/tricks it, count as vulnerabilities (or exposures?) and as such would be assigned different numbers. http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/spam.html seems like a good general resource, as does ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2505.txt I changed the description to make it more clear that the issue is that of explicit configuration, as opposed to being the result of a vulnerability.

Baker, Northcutt Frech Shostack Overly broad XF:rsh-equiv(111) Since this is unrestricted trust, I agree this is a problem Candidate Proposed An SNMP community name is guessable. Baker, Meunier, Northcutt, Shostack Frech Christey XF:snmp-get-guess XF:snmp-set-guess XF:sol-hidden-commstr XF:hpov-hidden-snmp-comm This candidate is affected by the CD:CF-PASS content decision, which determines the appropriate level of abstraction to use for password problems. CD:CF-PASS needs to be accepted by the Editorial Board before this candidate can be converted into a CVE entry; the final version of CD:CF-PASS may require using a different LOA than this candidate is currently using.

Consider adding BID:2112 Candidate Proposed A NETBIOS/SMB share password is guessable. Baker, LeBlanc, Meunier, Northcutt, Shostack Frech Change description term to NetBIOS. XF:nt-netbios-perm XF:sharepass XF:win95-smb-password XF:nt-netbios-dict Candidate Proposed A NETBIOS/SMB share password is the default, null, or missing.

Wall Frech Baker Northcutt LeBlanc Christey I think we need to enumerate the shares and or the access control One question is, what is "inappropriate"? It's probably very dependent on the policy of the enterprise on which this is found. And should writable shares be different from readable shares? (Or file systems, mail spools, etc.) Yes, the impact may be different, but we could have a large number of entries for each possible type of access. A content decision (CD:CF-DATA) needs to be reviewed and accepted by the Editorial Board in order to resolve this question. Unacceptably vague - agree with Christey's comments. associated to: XF:nt-netbios-everyoneaccess(1) XF:nt-netbios-guestaccess(2) XF:nt-netbios-allaccess(3) XF:nt-netbios-open(15) XF:nt-netbios-write(19) XF:nt-netbios-shareguest(20) XF:nt-writable-netbios(26) XF:nb-rootshare(393) XF:decod-smb-password-empty(2358) Candidate Proposed An NIS domain name is easily guessable. Baker, Meunier, Northcutt, Shostack Frech Christey XF:nis-dom Consider http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-1992-13.html as well as ftp://ciac.llnl.gov/pub/ciac/bulletin/c-fy92/c-25.ciac-sunos-nis-patch Candidate Proposed The permissions for a system-critical NIS+ table (e.g. passwd) are inappropriate. CA-96.10 Baker, Wall Christey Northcutt Why not say world readable, this is what you do further down in the file (world exportable in CVE-1999-0554) ADDREF AUSCERT:AA-96.02 Candidate Proposed ICMP echo (ping) is allowed from arbitrary hosts. Meunier Baker Frech, Northcutt (Though I sympathize with this one :) [Frech changed vote from REVIEWING to REJECT] Ping is a utility that can be run on demand; ICMP echo is a message type. As currently worded, this candidate seems as if an arbitrary host is vulnerable because it is capable of running an arbitrary program or function (in this case, ping/ICMP echo). There are many programs/functions that 'shouldn't' be on a computer, from a security admin's perspective. Even if this were a vulnerability, it would be impacted by CD-HIGHCARD. Every ICMP message type presents a vulnerability or an exposure, if access is not controlled. By that I mean not only those in RFC 792, but also those in RFC 1256, 950, and more. I think that the description should be changed to "ICMP messages are acted upon without any access control". ICMP is an error and debugging protocol. We complain about vendors leaving testing backdoors in their programs. ICMP is the equivalent for TCP/IP. ICMP should be in the dog house, unless you are trying to troubleshoot something. MTU discovery is just a performance tweak -- it's not necessary. I don't know of any ICMP message type that is necessary if the network is functional. Limited logging of ICMP messages could be useful, but acting upon them and allowing the modification of routing tables, the behavior of the TCP/IP stack, etc... without any form of authentication is just crazy. Candidate Modified ICMP information such as (1) netmask and (2) timestamp is allowed from arbitrary hosts. http://descriptions.securescout.com/tc/11010 http://descriptions.securescout.com/tc/11011 http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&externalId=1434 95 icmp-netmask(306) icmp-timestamp(322) Baker, Frech, Meunier Northcutt XF:icmp-timestamp XF:icmp-netmask If this is not merged with 1999-0523 as I commented for that CVE, then the description should be changed to "ICMP messages of types 13 and 14 (timestamp request and reply) and 17 and 18 (netmask request and reply) are acted upon without any access control". It's a more precise and correct language. I believe that this is a valid CVE entry (it's a common source of vulnerabilities or exposures) even though I see that the inferred action was "reject". Knowing the time of a host also allows attacks against random number generators that are seeded with the current time. I want to push to have it accepted. I agree with the description changes suggested by Pascal Candidate Proposed IP traceroute is allowed from arbitrary hosts. Frech Baker Northcutt XF:traceroute Candidate Proposed The permissions for system-critical data in an anonymous FTP account are inappropriate. For example, the root directory is writeable by world, a real password file is obtainable, or executable commands such as "ls" can be overwritten. Baker, Northcutt, Wall Frech That that starts to get specific :) ftp-writable-directory(6253) ftp-write(53) "writeable" in the description should be "writable." Candidate Proposed A router or firewall forwards external packets that claim to come from inside the network that the router/firewall is in front of. Baker, Meunier, Northcutt Frech possibly XF:nisd-dns-fwd-check [Frech changed vote from REVIEWING to MODIFY] XF:firewall-external-packet-forwarding(8372) Candidate Proposed A router or firewall forwards packets that claim to come from IANA reserved or private addresses, e.g. 10.x.x.x, 127.x.x.x, 217.x.x.x, etc. Frech Baker, Meunier Northcutt I have seen ISPs "assign" private addresses within their domain A border router or firewall forwards packets that claim to come from IANA reserved or private addresses, e.g. 10.x.x.x, 127.x.x.x, 217.x.x.x, etc, outside of their area of validity. [Frech changed vote from REVIEWING to ACCEPT] I think the description should be modified to say they accept this type of traffic from an interface not residing on private/reserved network. Candidate Proposed A system is operating in "promiscuous" mode which allows it to perform packet sniffing.

ConsultIDs: None. Reason: this candidate is solely about a configuration that does not directly introduce security vulnerabilities, so it is more appropriate to cover under the Common Configuration Enumeration (CCE). Notes: the former description is: "An SMTP service supports EXPN, VRFY, HELP, ESMTP, and/or EHLO." Frech Christey Shostack Northcutt I think expn != vrfy, help, esmtp.

If so, add XF:smtp-rcpt(1928) XF:smtp-vrfy(130) ? Candidate Proposed A DNS server allows zone transfers. Frech Baker Northcutt (With split DNS implementations this is quite appropriate) XF:dns-zonexfer Candidate Proposed A DNS server allows inverse queries. Frech Baker Northcutt (rule of thumb) XF:dns-iquery Candidate Proposed A Windows NT user has inappropriate rights or privileges, e.g. Act as System, Add Workstation, Backup, Change System Time, Create Pagefile, Create Permanent Object, Create Token Name, Debug, Generate Security Audit, Increase Priority, Increase Quota, Load Driver, Lock Memory, Profile Single Process, Remote Shutdown, Replace Process Token, Restore, System Environment, Take Ownership, or Unsolicited Input. Baker, Christey, Ozancin, Shostack, Wall Frech, Northcutt If we are going to write a laundry list put access to the scheduler in it. The list of privileges is very useful for lookup.

Shostack, Wall Baker, Frech Northcutt, Ozancin inappropriate implies there is appropriate. As a guy who has been monitoring networks for years I have deep reservations about justiying the existance of any fixed cleartext password. For appropriate to exist, some "we" would have to establish some criteria for appropriate passwords. Perhaps this could be re-worded a bit. The CVE CVE-1999-00582 specifies "...settings for lockouts". To remain consistent with the other, maybe it should specify "...settings for passwords" I think most people would agree that passwords should be at least 8 characters; contain letters (upper and lowercase), numbers and at least one non-alphanumeric; should only be good a limited time 30-90 days; and should not contain character combinations from user's prior 2 or 3 passwords. Suggested rewrite - A Windows NT account policy does not enforce reasonable minimum security-critical settings for passwords, e.g. passwords of sufficient length, periodic required password changes, or new password uniqueness What is appropriate?

These are just checks for configuration settings that a user might have changed. I understand need to increase number of checks in a scanning product, but don't feel like these belong in CVE. Scanner vendors could argue that these entries are needed to keep a common language. Not sure about whether we should bother to include this type issue or not. It does provide a stepping stone for further actions, but in and of itself it isn't a specific vulnerability. Candidate Proposed A trust relationship exists between two Unix hosts.

Baker, Shostack Frech Northcutt XF:sshd-rhosts(315) Candidate Proposed A superfluous NFS server is running, but it is not importing or exporting any file systems. Shostack Baker Northcutt Candidate Proposed Windows NT automatically logs in an administrator upon rebooting. Hill Blake, Frech, Ozancin Wall Baker Don't know what this is. Don't think it is a vulnerability and would initially reject. This is different than just renaming the administrator account. Would appreciate more information on this one, as in a reference. Reference: XF:nt-autologin Needs more detail I tried to find the XF:nt-autologin reference, and got no matching records from their search engine. No refs, no details, should reject [Frech changed vote from REVIEWING to MODIFY] XF:nt-autologon(5) Candidate Proposed A router's routing tables can be obtained from arbitrary hosts. Baker Frech Northcutt Don't you mean obtained by arbitrary hosts XF:routed XF:decod-rip-entry XF:rip Concur with this as a security issue Candidate Proposed NFS exports system-critical data to the world, e.g. / or a password file. Northcutt, Wall Baker Christey A content decision (CD:CF-DATA) needs to be reviewed and accepted by the Editorial Board in order to resolve this question. Candidate Proposed A Unix account with a name other than "root" has UID 0, i.e. root privileges. Baker Northcutt, Shostack This is very bogus Candidate Proposed Two or more Unix accounts have the same UID. Baker, Christey Northcutt, Shostack XF:duplicate-uid(876) Add terms "duplicate" and "user ID" to facilitate search. ftp://ftp.auscert.org.au/pub/auscert/papers/unix_security_checklist Candidate Proposed A system-critical Unix file or directory has inappropriate permissions. Baker, Wall Northcutt, Shostack Writable other than by root/bin/wheelgroup? Candidate Proposed A system-critical Windows NT file or directory has inappropriate permissions. Baker, Wall Northcutt I think we should specify these Candidate Proposed IIS has the #exec function enabled for Server Side Include (SSI) files. Baker, Northcutt Shostack LeBlanc Does not meet definition of a vulnerability. This function is just enabled. You can turn it off if you want. if you trust the people putting up your web pages, this isn't a problem. If you don't, this is just one of many things you need to change. Candidate Modified The registry in Windows NT can be accessed remotely by users who are not administrators. oval:org.mitre.oval:def:1023 Baker, Ozancin, Shostack, Wall Frech Northcutt This isn't all or nothing, users may be allowed to access part of the registry. XF:nt-winreg-all XF:nt-winreg-net Candidate Proposed An attacker can force a printer to print arbitrary documents (e.g. if the printer doesn't require a password) or to become disabled. Baker, Shostack Northcutt Candidate Proposed A Sendmail alias allows input to be piped to a program. Northcutt Baker Shostack Christey Is this a default alias? Is my .procmailrc an instance of this? It is not entirely clear whether the simple fact that an alias pipes into a program should be considered a vulnerability. It all depends on the behavior of that particular program. This is one of a number of configuration-related issues from the "draft" CVE that came from vulnerability scanners. In general, when we get to general configuration and "policy," it becomes more difficult to use the current CVE model to represent them. So at the very least, this candidate (and similar ones) should be given close consideration and discussion before being added to the official CVE list. Because this candidate is related to general configuration issues, and we have not completely determined how to handle such issues in CVE, this candidate cannot be promoted to an official CVE entry until such issues are resolved. Candidate Proposed rpc.admind in Solaris is not running in a secure mode. Northcutt Baker, Christey Dik, Shostack are there secure modes? Several: 1) there is no "rpc.admind" daemon. there used to be a "admind" RPC daemon (100087/10) and there's now an "sadmind" daemon (100232/10) The switch over was somewhere around Solaris 2.4. 2) Neither defaults to "secure mode" 3) secure mode is "using secure RPC" which does proper over the wire authentication by specifying the "-S 2" option in inetd.conf (security level 2) XF:rpc-admind(626) http://xforce.iss.net/static/626.php MISC:http://pulhas.org/xploitsdb/mUNIXes/admind.html Candidate Modified A URL for a WWW directory allows auto-indexing, which provides a list of all files in that directory if it does not contain an index.html file. Wall Baker, Christey Northcutt I do this intentionally somethings in high content directories XF:http-noindex(90) ? Candidate Proposed Windows NT is not using a password filter utility, e.g. PASSFILT.DLL. Northcutt Frech Baker, Christey Wall Here we are crossing into the best practices arena again. However since passfilt does establish a measurable standard and since we aren't the ones defining the stanard, simply saying it should be employed I will vote for this. XF:nt-passfilt-not-inst(1308) XF:nt-passfilt-not-found(1309) Consider MSKB:Q161990 and MSKB:Q151082 Candidate Modified A router's configuration service or management interface (such as a web server or telnet) is configured to allow connections from arbitrary hosts.

Candidate Modified .reg files are associated with the Windows NT registry editor (regedit), making the registry susceptible to Trojan Horse attacks. Baker, Ozancin, Shostack, Wall Frech Christey, Northcutt I don't quite get what this means, sorry XF:nt-regfile(178) MISC:http://security-archive.merton.ox.ac.uk/nt-security-199902/0087.html Candidate Proposed A Windows NT system's user audit policy does not log an event success or failure, e.g. for Logon and Logoff, File and Object Access, Use of User Rights, User and Group Management, Security Policy Changes, Restart, Shutdown, and System, and Process Tracking. Christey, Ozancin, Shostack, Wall Frech Baker, Northcutt It isn't a great truth that you should enable all or the above, if you do you potentially introduce a vulnerbility of filling up the file system with stuff you will never look at. It is far less interesting what a user does successfully that what they attempt and fail at. The list of event types is very useful for lookup. XF:nt-system-audit XF:nt-logon-audit XF:nt-object-audit XF:nt-privil-audit XF:nt-process-audit XF:nt-policy-audit XF:nt-account-audit [Baker changed vote from REVIEWING to RECAST] Candidate Proposed A Windows NT system's file audit policy does not log an event success or failure for security-critical files or directories. Baker, Shostack, Wall Frech, Ozancin Northcutt 1.) Too general are we ready to state what the security-critical files and directories are 2.) Does Ataris, Windows CE, PalmOS, Linux have such a capability Some files and directories are clearly understood to be critical. Others are unclear. We need to clarify that critical is. XF:nt-object-audit Candidate Proposed A Windows NT system's file audit policy does not log an event success or failure for non-critical files or directories. Shostack, Wall Baker, Frech, Ozancin Northcutt It is far less interesting what a user does successfully that what they attempt and fail at. Perhaps only failure should be logged. XF:nt-object-audit [Baker changed vote from REVIEWING to MODIFY] Failure on non-critical files is what should be monitored.

Baker, Ozancin, Shostack, Wall Frech Northcutt with reservation Again what is defined as critical [Frech changed vote from REVIEWING to MODIFY] XF:nt-object-audit(228) Candidate Proposed A Windows NT system's registry audit policy does not log an event success or failure for non-critical registry keys. Baker, Shostack, Wall Frech, Ozancin Northcutt Again only failure may be of interest. It would be impractical to wad through the incredibly large amount of logging that this would generate. It could overwhelm log entries that you might find interesting. [Frech changed vote from REVIEWING to MODIFY] XF:nt-object-audit(228) Candidate Proposed The HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key in a Windows NT system has inappropriate, system-critical permissions. Wall Baker Northcutt I think we can define appropriate, take a look at the nt security .pdf and see if you can't see a way to phrase specific keys in a way that defines inappropriate. This is way vague... Candidate Proposed The HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT key in a Windows NT system has inappropriate, system-critical permissions. Wall Baker Northcutt I think we can define appropriate, take a look at the nt security .pdf and see if you can't see a way to phrase specific keys in a way that defines inappropriate. way too vague Candidate Proposed A Windows NT account policy has inappropriate, security-critical settings for lockout, e.g. lockout duration, lockout after bad logon attempts, etc. Ozancin, Shostack, Wall Baker, Frech Northcutt The definition is? Maybe a rewording of this one too. I think most people would agree on some "minimum" policies like 3-5 bad attempts lockout for an hour or until the administrator unlocks the account. Suggested rewrite - A Windows NT account policy does not enforce reasonable minimum security-critical settings for lockouts, e.g. lockout duration, lockout after bad logon attempts, etc. with reservations What is appropriate? XF:nt-thres-lockout XF:nt-lock-duration XF:nt-lock-window XF:nt-perm-lockout XF:lockout-disabled Candidate Proposed There is a one-way or two-way trust relationship between Windows NT domains. Baker, Christey Northcutt, Shostack XF:nt-trusted-domain(1284) Candidate Proposed A Windows NT file system is not NTFS. Northcutt, Wall Frech Baker, Christey NTFS partition provides the security. This could be re-worded to "A Windows NT file system is FAT" since it is either NTFS or FAT and FAT is less secure. XF:nt-filesys(195) MSKB:Q214579 MSKB:Q214579 http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q100/1/08.ASP Candidate Proposed A Windows NT administrator account has the default name of Administrator. Ozancin Frech Baker, Northcutt, Shostack Wall Some sources say this is not a vulnerability, but a warning. It just slows down the search for the admin account (SID = 500) which can always be found. I change this on all NT systems I am responsible for, but is root a vulnerability? There are ways to identify the administrator account anyway, so this is only a minor delay to someone that is knowledgeable. This, in and of itself, doesn't really strike me as a vulnerability, anymore than the root account on a Unix box. (there is no way to hide the account name today) XF:nt-adminexists Candidate Proposed A network service is running on a nonstandard port. Baker Shostack Northcutt Might be acceptable if clearer; is that a standard service on a non-standard port, or any service on an unassigned port? It might actually be an enhancement rather than a problem to run a service on a non-standard port Candidate Proposed A WWW server is not running in a restricted file system, e.g. through a chroot, thus allowing access to system-critical data. Wall Baker Northcutt While I would accept this for Unix, I am not sure this applies to NT, VMS, palm pilots, or commodore 64 Candidate Proposed A filter in a router or firewall allows unusual fragmented packets. Baker, Frech Northcutt I want to vote to accept this one, but unusual is a shade broad. XF:nt-rras XF:cisco-fragmented-attacks XF:ip-frag Perhaps we should use the word abnormally fragmented or some other descriptor. Candidate Proposed A system-critical Windows NT registry key has inappropriate permissions. Wall Baker Christey, Northcutt I think we can define appropriate, take a look at the nt security .pdf and see if you can't see a way to phrase specific keys in a way that defines inappropriate. Upon further reflection, this is too high-level for CVE. Specific registry keys with bad permissions is roughly equivalent to Unix configuration files that have bad permissions; those permission problems can be created by any vendor, not just a specific one. Therefore this candidate should be RECAST into each separate registry key that has this problem. Candidate Proposed A system does not present an appropriate legal message or warning to a user who is accessing it.

At this moment, my thinking is that we should SPLIT this CAN into each separate trojaned product, then create some criteria that restrict creation of new CANs to "widespread" or "important" products only. Candidate Proposed A system-critical program or library does not have the appropriate patch, hotfix, or service pack installed, or is outdated or obsolete. Baker, Hill, Northcutt, Wall Candidate Proposed A system-critical program, library, or file has a checksum or other integrity measurement that indicates that it has been modified. Baker, Hill, Wall Northcutt This needs to be worded carefully. 1. Rootkits evade checksum detection. 2. The modification could be positive (a patch) Candidate Proposed An application-critical Windows NT registry key has inappropriate permissions. Wall Baker Christey, Northcutt I think we can define appropriate, take a look at the nt security .pdf and see if you can't see a way to phrase specific keys in a way that defines inappropriate. Upon further reflection, this is too high-level for CVE. Specific registry keys with bad permissions is roughly equivalent to Unix configuration files that have bad permissions; those permission problems can be created by any vendor, not just a specific one. Therefore this candidate should be RECAST into each separate registry key that has this problem. Candidate Proposed An application-critical Windows NT registry key has an inappropriate value. Wall Baker Northcutt I think we can define appropriate, take a look at the nt security .pdf and see if you can't see a way to phrase specific keys in a way that defines inappropriate. very vague Candidate Proposed The ARP protocol allows any host to spoof ARP replies and poison the ARP cache to conduct IP address spoofing or a denial of service. Blake, Cole Stracener Baker, Christey Frech Add Ref: BUGTRAQ:19970919 Playing redir games with ARP and ICMP Cannot proceed without a reference. Too vague, and resembles XF:netbsd-arp: CVE-1999-0763: NetBSD on a multi-homed host allows ARP packets on one network to modify ARP entries on another connected network. CVE-1999-0764: NetBSD allows ARP packets to overwrite static ARP entries. Will reconsider if reference provides enough information to render a distinction. This particular vulnerability was exploited by an attacker during the ID'Net IDS test network exercise at the SANS Network Security '99 conference. The attacker adapted a publicly available program that was able to spoof another machine on the same physical network. See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=87602880019797&w=2 for the Bugtraq reference that Tom Stracener suggested. This generated a long thread on Bugtraq in 1997. I'll second Tom's request to add the reference, it's a very posting good and the vulnerability is clearly derivative of the work. (I do recall talking to the guy and drafting a description.) Candidate Interim The Eyedog ActiveX control is marked as "safe for scripting" for Internet Explorer, which allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands as demonstrated by Bubbleboy.

Since the description is too vague, this CAN should be REJECTED and recast into other candidates. Candidate Proposed A vulnerability in Caldera Open Administration System (COAS) allows the /etc/shadow password file to be made world-readable. CSSA-1999:009 linux-coas Baker, Cole, Frech, Stracener Blake Armstrong Christey This obscurely-written advisory seems to state that COAS will make the file world-readable, not that it allows the user to make it so. I hardly think that allowing the user to turn off security is a vulnerability. It's difficult to write the description based on what's in the advisory. If COAS inadvertently changes permissions without user confirmation, then it should be ACCEPTed with appropriate modification to the description. ADDREF BID:137 [Armstrong changed vote from REVIEWING to NOOP] Candidate Modified The showcode.asp sample file in IIS and Site Server allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files. May7,1999 MS99-013 Q232449 Q231368 oval:org.mitre.oval:def:932 Ozancin, Prosser, Stracener, Wall Cole, Frech Baker Christey XF:iis-samples-showcode There are several sample files that allow this. I would quote showcode.asp but make it more generic. (Modify) Have a question on this and on the following three candidates as well. All of these are part of the file viewers utilities that allow unauthorized files reading, but MSKB Q231368 also mentioned the diagnostics program,Winmsdp.exe, as another vulnerable viewer in this same set of viewers. If we are going to split out the seperate viewer tools then shouldn't there should be a seperate CAN for Winmsdp.exe also. Mike's question basically touches on the CD:SF-EXEC content decision - what do you do when you have the same bug in multiple executables? CD:SF-EXEC needs to be reviewed and approved by the Editorial Board before we can decide what to do with this candidate. Mark Burnett says that Microsoft's mention of winmsdp.exe in MSKB:Q231368 may be an error, and that winmsdp.exe is a Microsoft Diagnostics Report Generator which may not even be installed as part of IIS.

However, BID 268 also includes AIX in this vulnerability and refs APARS issued to fix a vulnerability in various 'nixs with the Natural Language Service environmental variables NSLPATH and PATH_LOCALE depending on the 'nix, ref CERT CA-97.10, CVE-1999-0041. However, Georgi Guninski reported a BO in AIX with LC_MESSAGES + mount, also refed in BID 268, so it is possible the AIX APARs fix an earlier, similar vulnerability to the Sun BO in LC_MESSAGES. This should probably be considered under a different CAN. Any ideas? Given that the buffer overflows in CVE-1999-0041 are NLSPATH and PATH_LOCALE, I'd say that's good evidence that this is not the same problem. But a buffer overflow in libc in LC_MESSAGES... We must ask if these are basically the same codebase. ADDREF CIAC:J-069 While the description indicates multiple programs, CD:SF-EXEC does not apply because the vulnerability was in libc, and rcp and ufsrestore were both statically linked against libc. Thus CD:SF-LOC applies, and a single candidate is maintained because the problem occurred in a library. Sun bug 4240566 I'm consulting with Casper Dik and Troy Bollinger to see if this should be combined with the AIX buffer overflows for LC_MESSAGES; current indications are that they should be split. For further consultation, consider this post, though it's associated with CVE-1999-0041: BUGTRAQ:19970213 Linux NLSPATH buffer overflow http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/6296 Also add "NLSPATH" and "PATH_LOCALE" to the description to facilitate search.

XF:bootp-remote-bo Further analysis indicates that this is a duplicate of CVE-1999-0799 [Christey changed vote from REJECT to NOOP] What was I thinking? Brian Caswell pointed out that this is *not* the same bug as CVE-1999-0799. As reported in the 1998 Bugtraq post, the bug is in bootpd.c, and is related to providing an htype value that is used as an index into an array, and exceeds the intended boundaries of that array.

Sun bug 4295834; fixed in Solaris 8. Okay, I am confused. Based on Casper's comments and checking on the Sun patch site, I found the 4295834 bug(4295834 NETPATH security problem in libnsl) fixed in SunOS 5.4, Patch 101974-37(x86) 101973 (sparc). Multiple libnsl vulnerabilities was first reported in an 98 Sun Bulletin #00172 for 5.4 up through 2.6. Was this NETPATH a problem that resurfaced in 7 (looks like in 5.4 as well) and was fixed in 8? Need to dig up my offline email on this. May be a duplicate of CVE-1999-0321, whose sole reference (XF:sun-kcms-configure-bo) no longer exists.

Also review BID:758 and BID:757 - may need to change the BID here. XF:canna-uum-bo CHANGEREF BID:757 BID:758 The following page says that canuum is a "Japanese input tty frontend for Canna using uum," which suggests that it is, at the least, a different package, so perhaps this should stay SPLIT. http://wuarchive.wustl.edu/mirrors/NetBSD/NetBSD-current/pkgsrc/inputmethod/canuum/README.html Candidate Proposed Buffer overflow in Solaris lpstat via class argument allows local users to gain root access. 19990126 Buffer overflow in Solaris 2.6/2.7 /usr/bin/lpstat Baker, Ozancin, Stracener Dik, Frech Christey XF:solaris-lpstat-bo It is unclear from Casper Dik's followup whether this is exploitable or not.

It's for version 2.07, but the discloser didn't say what version was available. Other security fixes are in the release notes at http://www.omnicron.ab.ca/httpd/docs/release.html Notes for Professional Version 1.01 say "Patched up two security weaknesses." Notes for version 2.07 say "Fixes dot-appending vulnerability." Professional Alpha 7 says "Revamped CGI launching and security," Professional Alpha 4 says "Fixed SSI path mapping and security problems," Alpha 5 says "Security fixup." In other words, you can't tell whether they've fixed this bug or not.

Candidate Modified UnixWare pkgtrans allows local users to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack. 19991204 UnixWare pkg* command exploits 19991215 Recent postings about SCO UnixWare 7 19991223 FYI, SCO Security patches available. 19991220 SCO OpenServer Security Status Baker, Blake, Cole Frech Stracener Christey The pkg* programs pkgtrans, pkginfo, pkgcat, pkginstall, and pkgparam can be used to mount etc/shadow printing attacks as a result of the "dacread" permission (cf. /etc/security/tcb/privs). The procedural differences between the individual exploits for each of these utilities are therefore inconsequential. CVE-1999-0988 should be merged with CVE-1999-0828. From the standpoint of maintaining consistency of the level of abstraction used in CVE, the co-existence of CANS 1999-0988/1999-0828 present two choices: either merge 0988 with 0828, or split 0828 into 4 distinct candidates, keeping 0988 intact. Due to the very small differences (in principle) between the exploits subsumed by 0828 and 0988 and the shared dacread permissions of the pkg* suite, I suggest a merge. Below is a summary of the data upon which my decision was based. utility exploit -------- ---------------------------------- symlink + dacread permission prob truss (debugging utility) in conjunction with pkginfio -d etc/shadow. In this case, it captures the interaction between pkginfo the shadow file. Once again: dacread. buffer overflow + dacread permission prob buffer overflow + dacread permission prob -f etc/shadow (works because of dacread). This is a tough one. While there are few procedural differences, one could view "assignment of an improper permission" as a "class" of problems along the lines of buffer overflows and the like. Just like some programs were fine until they got turned into CGI scripts, this could be an emerging pattern which should be given consideration. Consider the Eyedog and scriptlet.typelib ActiveX utilities being marked as safe for scripting (CVE-1999-0668 and 0669). ftp://ftp.sco.com/SSE/security_bulletins/SB-99.28a loosely alludes to this problem; the README for patch SSE053 effectively confirms it.

Some people refer to "directory traversal" and just mean .. problems; but there are other issues (specifying an absolute pathname, using C: drive letters, doing encodings) that, to my way of thinking, are "different."

Some of it may be due to differing definitions or thoughts about what "directory traversal vulnerabilities" are.

This makes it difficult because if Maximizer has a concept of "users" and it is designed to allow any user to modify any other user's data, then this would not be a vulnerability or exposure, unless that "cross-user" capability could be used to violate system integrity, data confidentiality, or the like. There are some features of Maximizer 6.0 that, if abused, could allow someone to do some bad things. For example, an attacker could modify the email addresses for contacts to redirect sales to locations besides the customer. There's also a capability of assigning priorities and alarms, which could be susceptible to an "inconvenience attack" at the very least, as well as tie-ins to e-commerce capabilities. The critical question becomes: "how is this data shared" in the first place? If it's through a network share or other distribution method besides transferring the complete database between sites, then this may be accessible to any attacker who can mimic a Maximizer client (if there is such a thing as a client), and this could be a vulnerability or exposure according to the CVE definition. However, since the Maximizer functionality is unknown to me and not readily apparent from product documentation, it's hard to know what to do about this one.

BID-4089 (Multiple Vendor SNMP Request Handling Vulnerabilities) is already assigned to CVE-2002-0013. Also, this CVE issue seems to have nothing to do with SNMP. Agreed, this is the wrong BID. SecurityFocus has assigned BID:643 to CVE-1999-1570, but there's a bit of an inconsistency. BID:643 alludes to Bugtraq posts in 1999 from Brock Tellier, mentioning overflows in sar via BOTH the -o and -f parameters. However, they also link this issue to SCO advisory 99.17, although the advisory itself is too vague to *really* know what vulns they fixed. And now the link to a potentially more detailed document (sse037.ltr) is broken. So we don't have any independent reason for knowing whether SCO 99.17 (a) addresses any "sar" vulnerabilities, and (b) even if it does, whether it addresses *both* the -o and -f arguments originally claimed by Tellier. Finally, it seems rather curious that CSSA-2002-SCO.17 talks about a -o overflow but does not mention -f. Sounds like an email to the security people at SCO is in order... OK. Having consulted with SCO (who responded quickly), I looked even further into this issue. There is now sufficient evidence that the -f overflow was fixed in 1999. This means that a separate candidate should be created (by CD:SF-LOC), so the -f overflow is now covered by CVE-1999-1571.

According to Tripp (bugtraq), the audio server doesn't run on a machine without Audio Hardware (logical). So one has to assume from the bulletin that any 9000 with audio hardware that is running a 10.x or 11.x version of OS with either the 98 or 99 version of Aserver loaded will be vulnerable to either the exploit in CVE-1999-0005(the 98 version of Aserver) or CVE-2000-0078 (the 99 version)and should take appropriate action.

My concern is in cases like this we used over 10 entries for basically the same vulnerability. I could think of cases were there could be 20+ applications with the same vulnerability and in my opinion it could start to weaken the value of CVE where there are 30 entries all referring to the same thing. It is almost like we are playing the vendor game where more is better. I think we should go after the quality over quantity aspect. I disagree with Eric here. This vulnerability is a "type" of problem in the same way that a buffer overflow is a "type" of problem. While the shopping cart application bugs were proposed mostly at the same time, they are all by different vendors. The raw numbers of applications with this problem can make it appear that CVE is artificially inflating the number of entries. However, content decisions such as CD:SF-LOC (different lines of code) dictate that these should be separated. It's not a "numbers game" but rather a principled and consistent approach to resolving problems with selecting a level of abstraction.

Comment: the original UssrLabs advisory does mention the SHGetPathFromIDList buffer overflow in a Windows API and that Serv-U FTP uses this API to cause the problem. The problem does not exist on Windows 2000. The solution seems to be in a new release of Serv-U FTP.

SEE THE EDITORIAL BOARD ARCHIVES FOR DETAILS, BEGINNING AT http://cve.mitre.org/Board_Sponsors/archives/msg00590.html ********************************************************** I suggest we I'd like to suggest that we consider not tying specifically to a DDOS tool. Instead, since we are at at higher abstraction level, that we make the class include those master/slave tool combinations that are used for malicious purposes (i.e. DDOS, data exfiltration, or whatever the appropriate classes of effect are). My concern is that (1) we treat all distributed attacks at the same abstract level; not just the DDOS ones. Second, if it is at a higher abstraction level then it seems right to unlimit it (by including master/slave combinations in general; not just the DDOS asect). I think that trinoo etc... are very similar to smurf attacks (CVE-1999-0513 ) in the sense that a third party allows itself to be used. Also, there is an obvious solution that can only be done by that third party. As for the CVE entry, I am considering whether the common entry point could be reduced to "egress filtering has not been implemented or has been disabled, allowing the sending of spoofed IP packets". Incidentally, this would prevent the use of decoys in port scans, etc... This single CVE entry would be very powerful. We could use the dot notation to list the DDoS tools and attacks that rely on the absence of egress filtering based on the argument that if you have egress filtering, nobody will bother to put or use DDoS tools on your computers. The weakness of this is that one could in theory still use DDoS tools even if you have egress filtering -- only they will be one shot guns, almost completely eliminating their appeal and effectiveness. One use, and they will be blocked, tracked down and destroyed efficiently. Pascal P.S.: I am attracted by the idea of starting an internet (fire)wall of shame, for people who haven't implemented egress filtering. It worked pretty well against sites allowing themselves to be used for smurf attacks (http://www.powertech.no/smurf/). Why not use the same strategy for egress filtering? Of course it's hard to know who is the source of IP spoofed packets. However the consistent detection of crud originating from a server is a sure sign that they haven't implemented egress filtering. For example (my first candidate to this wall of shame), this weekend the Linux suse ftp server sent many packets with an illegal ip address as source, one reserved for local area networks, upon making an ftp connection (it may still be doing it, I haven't checked since -- the suse ftp admin mentioned that they were aware of it). It was easy to figure out it was them by repeating the ftp connections and observing the 100% reproducibility and time correlation of the extraneous packets. In addition, the suse servers kept sending me crud for *hours* after a failed attempt to download their PPC beta. The cost of egress filtering is easily justified. The argument is similar to those relating to pollution, excepted that people don't try to break into your car if you have removed the catalytic converter. I need to think about the exact meaning of MP. I suspect I will agree with the classification, on an operational basis (meaning I may want to revisit it), but I want to think on it some more. I don't agree with Pascal that this is a filtering problem analogous to smurf. Rootkit is a better analogy. The DDoS software doesn't exploit any unique vulnerability directly. It's presence is entirely predicated on the existence of at least one other, easily exploited vulnerability. From the perspective of the system owner, this is just one of several backdoors that could be installed. Seems to me that the presence of a known backdoor package should be considered a vulnerability (or at least an exposure). I'm really torn on whether or not to split them out, though. My inclination is to group master and slave by package; i.e., trinoo master/slave, tfn master/slave, etc. Just to be consistent, you may add Trinoo (trin00) and does it matter if it is Tribal or Tribe? The original internal c program says Tribe Flood Network. What they have in common is the use of an amplification mechanism. They are broadcasting (multicasting) to a (virtual private) network, which then amplifies the messages. In both cases, the amplification is done by the third party victim hosts. The difference is just that the network is virtual instead of physical. Scott, you are assuming that the people who have the tools installed are unwilling. Let's say theoretically speaking that there is an underground hacker group (or student association) who is hooked up to DSL lines (like in university residences) and who thinks that it would be "cool" to form an "army". How about a popular civil movement protesting something, like the WTO last summer? I think some people would voluntarily "enlist" their computers in a cause that would use DDoS attacks. The rootkit analogy does not hold, yet the DDoS attacks could be just as effective. However, if the university or ISPs implemented egress filtering, the DDoS attacks could be easily stopped because the people could be held accountable. The crux of the matter is the anonymity provided by IP spoofing. You are correct that in most cases, having a DDoS tool installed on your system is an exposure like rootkit. Maybe that deserves a CVE entry. However, I think that does not capture the nature of the DDoS, and that an entry about egress filtering is of utmost importance because it patches a fundamental vulnerability of IPv4. Excellent response, Pascal, thanks. I hadn't thought of people volunteering, but that's certainly a plausible scenario. Part of my motivation/thinking was a desire to stay away from making this into only yet another use for spoofed IP packets. I wholeheartedly agree that egress filtering essential, but am reluctant to single out the recent DDoS events as the reason for it. I'd prefer to split out egress filtering as a seperate CVE entry (on the theory that not using egress filtering constitutes an exposure -- at least to liability), rather than tying it to these entries. I agree with Scott for no other reason that there needs to be a CVE ID so that IDS systems can report this things. Are we going to start handing out CVE ids for low level design faults? E.g. lack of encryption at the IPv4 packet level? lack of resource allocation protocols? the used of DES instead of Triple DES? etc Both excellent points, however, I'd like to add that even if people volunteer to host the tools, Trinoo and company allow the controlling attacker to hide activities, which counts as an exposure under http://cve.mitre.org/About_CVE/About/definition.html Even with all of the debate i accept this one. With respect to inclusion of design flaws in CVE, review http://cve.mitre.org/Board_Sponsors/archives/msg00602.html Other design flaws that have already been added to CVE include Smurf (CVE-1999-0513), Fraggle (CVE-1999-0514) and TCP sequence number prediction (CVE-1999-0077), although this last one may need to be RECAST to a lower level of abstraction. [Meunier changed vote from REVIEWING to RECAST] In the sense that this is like a rootkit, then it is a duplicate of CVE-1999-0660, "A hacker utility or Trojan Horse is installed on a system, e.g. NetBus, Back Orifice, Rootkit, etc..." It should be recast as CVE-1999-0660.1 DDoS tools Other dot notations could indicate different effects of the tools. There doesn't seem to be much to add to the discussion. Concur that this is a hacker utility, and should be recast and merged with other backdoor programs that allow a hacker to control the activities of the system.

To confirm Andre's question, this is being treated as different from CVE-2000-0092, based largely on the fact that the exploit is different. I believe there was another reason for keeping these distinct, but that "deeper analysis" was not recorded :-( While it's possible that this is the same bug from some common version of make, in the absence of other information we should probably keep these two split.

In addition, child_execute_job() in job.c uses an outfile variable - for both sources. Perhaps FreeBSD reported the -j problem without seeing that it could come in from stdin as well, and/or Debian/etc. didn't realize that it was exploitable from job control, or maybe a combination of the two.

As Andre basically said without naming content decisions, CD:SF-LOC says this should be split. HOWEVER - the author of the product says that WindMail isn't supposed to be a CGI script, and says that the pipe character problem is not related to Geocel. So should CVE record when someone runs a program that wasn't intended to be a CGI? There may be a level of abstraction issue here. Note that Perl and shell interpreters in CGI-BIN are already mentioned in CVE-1999-0509. If we want to include "using a program that wasn't designed to be a CGI" as a problem, we should have a separate candidate. See the author's comments at: http://www.securityfocus.com/templates/archive.pike?list=1&msg=3.0.5.32.20000331114325.013af680@mailhost.geocel.com which also claims that the original announcer hasn't provided any more details after the author was unable to reproduce the problem. [Magdych changed vote from REVIEWING to REJECT] After reviewing the author's comments, I'm inclined to think that this is more of a misconfiguration than a vulnerability.

The "execute arbitrary commands" part is a seperate vulnerability, already assigned CVE-2000-0322. The package was designed to have no password on installation, so "backdoor" does not apply. When users install Piranha they are expected to add a password to the web administration GUI, it's a documented part of the procedure. "The web GUI for the Linux Virtual Server (LVS) software in the Red Hat Linux Piranha package installs with a default password" is accurate if it qualifies as an exposure. BUGTRAQ:20000425 piranha default password/exploit URL:http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=95668829621268&w=2 Default accounts/passwords need to be accounted for in CVE, but the question is what level of abstraction to use - a separate CVE for each password, or one CVE for all passwords, or somewhere in the middle?

See http://mysql.eunet.fi/Downloads/Contrib/icradius.README In a followup, Alan DeKok (aland@FREERADIUS.ORG) says that this could occur in other RADIUS servers also; however, the bug could only be exploited if someone has altered the configuration file, which shouldn't normally be modifiable by anyone else. So, this should be REJECTed since the bug doesn't directly give anyone else any additional privileges or access. Alan DeKok <aland@FREERADIUS.ORG> says it applies to other RADIUS programs also, *however* since it needs a valid username, only the RADIUS owner can exploit it by changing the config file. But if the config file can be written by others - well, that's still a potential risk, but you've probably got bigger problems then. - http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=95671883515060&w=2 Look at ChangeLog at ftp://ftp.cheapnet.net/pub/icradius/ChangeLog Possible confirmation in 0.15: "sql_getvpdata now dynamically allocates buffer sizes for sql queries to avoid over runs" But that's a bit general. Alan Kok said that Cistron and other RADIUS servers were affected; the ICRADIUS changelog says to check the Cistron logs for other possible bug fixes, since ICRADIUS uses Cistron codebase. Go back to freeradius.org and find link to Cistron at http://www.miquels.cistron.nl/radius/ Cistron changelog at http://www.miquels.cistron.nl/radius/ChangeLog It has different version numbers - go back to ICRADIUS changelog to find rought equivalents. ICRADIUS 0.15 uses Cistron 1.6.3 patches, so start from there. No apparent problems in 1.6.3 or 1.6.4, but 1.6.1 says: "Fix all strcpy(), strcat(), sprintf() and sccanf() calls for buffer overflows." So perhaps the problem was fixed then? Or maybe the vulnerable sscanf() call was missed and/or disregarded because it was believed that the hostname could be trusted since it came from a well-controlled configuration file? Candidate Modified The Microsoft Jet database engine allows an attacker to execute commands via a database query, aka the "VBA Shell" vulnerability. MS99-030 jet-vba-shell(3155) 548 Armstrong, Baker, Cole, Prosser, Wall Frech LeBlanc Christey - same as CVE-1999-1011 If I'm misunderstanding something here, please correct me. In fact, it has the same bulletin as a reference. XF:jet-vba-shell This entry is not the same as "now" CVE-1999-1011. That entry is "The Remote Data Service (RDS) DataFactory component of Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) in IIS 3.x and 4.x exposes unsafe methods, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands."

BTW, I think we want to try and pay attention to follow-ups to these threads in order to minimize noise in the process. Based on David's comments, this is covered by CVE-1999-0002. However, that candidate may wind up being SPLIT, so I will keep this one around for the moment. With respect to watching followups, we are relying quite a bit on other data feeds instead of doing our own reviews of all the different data sources. The data feeds may report these problems as new before corrections are posted. Followups do often lend additional information to the candidates, and as is the case with this one, we will often catch the discrepancy before the candidate becomes an official entry, whether by MITRE's own analysis or by that of other Board members.

XF:big-brother-bbd-bo The original advisory, as forwarded to Bugtraq, does not provide any details, so the description is necessarily vague. Also, the home page at http://bb4.com has it referring to itself as "Big Brother System and Network Monitor," so "Network Monitor" is apparently part of the name of the product.

There was no exploit for SGI's vuln to compare. Since we are taking a split-by-default approach when there are insufficient details, we should keep this separate from CVE-1999-0125. The difference in the time of discovery is also a factor, even if these wind up being the same problem. However, there just aren't enough details to be sure if this is the same problem or not. On June 25, 1998, a buffer overflow in mailx via the HOME environmental variable was posted at: BUGTRAQ:19980625 security hole in mailx http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=90221103125955&w=2 This affected multiple OSes. SGI:19980605-01-PX (CVE-1999-0125) was published on September 29, 1998; while the advisory is short on details, it does mention a buffer overflow. So, there's enough distinction here (time and what gets exploited) to say that these should remain split; but CVE-1999-0125 likely needs to be RECAST to mention other affected OSes.

Should this be a vuln? I can see the argument that some features are simply not available unless you use the maximum security settings. At the very least, this needs to be modified to state that this problem/concern applies to high ports in general, not just Back orifice. The Bugtraq poster claims that BlackICE "shuts down" the port, but only *after* some initial traffic "leaks" out. This may be by design, but it does mean that there is a small window of opportunity in which BlackICE may not work "as advertised," even at lower security settings. XF:blackice-security-level-nervous BID:1389 XF:blackice-security-level-nervous(4777) [Levy changed vote from REVIEWING to ACCEPT] [Christey changed vote from NOOP to REVIEWING] I accept it more as a security exposure, than a real vulnerability. It performs just as any other "firewall" or IDS product can be configured to allow traffic without notifying the user. You can adjust settings on any product that allow traffic that other people or organizations would find unacceptable. So, as long as it is reflected that this is more of a configuration that allows such traffic as opposed to a defective or improperly functioning software issue, I don't have a problem with it.
