Summary of Security Items from March 16 through March 22, 2005

Information in the US-CERT Cyber Security Bulletin is a compilation and includes information published by outside sources, so the information should not be considered the result of US-CERT analysis. Software vulnerabilities are categorized in the appropriate section reflecting the operating system on which the vulnerability was reported; however, this does not mean that the vulnerability only affects the operating system reported since this information is obtained from open-source information.

This bulletin provides a summary of new or updated vulnerabilities, exploits, trends, viruses, and trojans. Updates to items appearing in previous bulletins are listed in bold text. The text in the Risk column appears in red for vulnerabilities ranking High. The risks levels applied to vulnerabilities in the Cyber Security Bulletin are based on how the "system" may be impacted. The Recent Exploit/Technique table contains a "Workaround or Patch Available" column that indicates whether a workaround or patch has been published for the vulnerability which the script exploits.


Vulnerabilities

The table below summarizes vulnerabilities that have been identified, even if they are not being exploited. Complete details about patches or workarounds are available from the source of the information or from the URL provided in the section. CVE numbers are listed where applicable. Vulnerabilities that affect both Windows and Unix Operating Systems are included in the Multiple Operating Systems section.

Note: All the information included in the following tables has been discussed in newsgroups and on web sites.

The Risk levels defined below are based on how the system may be impacted:

  • High - A high-risk vulnerability is defined as one that will allow an intruder to immediately gain privileged access (e.g., sysadmin or root) to the system or allow an intruder to execute code or alter arbitrary system files. An example of a high-risk vulnerability is one that allows an unauthorized user to send a sequence of instructions to a machine and the machine responds with a command prompt with administrator privileges.
  • Medium - A medium-risk vulnerability is defined as one that will allow an intruder immediate access to a system with less than privileged access. Such vulnerability will allow the intruder the opportunity to continue the attempt to gain privileged access. An example of medium-risk vulnerability is a server configuration error that allows an intruder to capture the password file.
  • Low - A low-risk vulnerability is defined as one that will provide information to an intruder that could lead to further compromise attempts or a Denial of Service (DoS) attack. It should be noted that while the DoS attack is deemed low from a threat potential, the frequency of this type of attack is very high. DoS attacks against mission-critical nodes are not included in this rating and any attack of this nature should instead be considered to be a "High" threat.

NotifyLink Enterprise Server

Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported that could let a remote malicious user obtain sensitive information, bypass certain security restrictions, and conduct SQL injection attacks. These vulnerabilities are caused because administrative users can view other users' private credentials or disable functions for users via the web interface but functions are still accessible via the URL. Also, certain input is not properly validated before being used in an SQL query and AES keys can be obtained by submitting a special POST request.

Update to version 3.0 or later and configure NotifyLink to use "Manual Key Generation".

There is no exploit code required.

Trends

  • A hack was revealed by Netcraft, a UK security company, that attempts to hijack a website frame on a legitimate banking site. The new 'cross-frame' scripting approach injects content onto a real web page which makes it difficult to detect. For more information, see "New style of phishing attack discovered" located at: http://www.techworld.com/security/news/index.cfm?NewsID=3348.
  • According to latest Symantec Internet Security Threat Report, the UK has more than a quarter (25.2 per cent) of all bots virus-infected, zombie PCs under the control of crackers and used for malicious purposes like identity theft and online fraud with the US (24.6 percent) and China (7.8 percent) in second and third place. For more information, see "Britain tops zombie PC charts" located at: http://www.securityfocus.com/news/10730 and Symantec Report: http://enterprisesecurity.symantec.com/content.cfm?articleid=1539 .
  • Symantec's biannual Internet Security Threat Report said one of the fastest-growing threats is from "phishing" attacks, which lure people to Web sites that appear to be owned by banks or other firms and dupe them into giving passwords, credit card numbers or other key information. Viruses, spam and other computer security threats are growing at a rapid rate, much of it aimed at stealing personal or confidential information. For more information, see: " Hacker Threats, Spam Still Growing" located at: http://www.newsfactor.com/story.xhtml?story_title=Hacker_Threats__Spam_Still_Growing&story_id=31581 and Symantec Report: http://enterprisesecurity.symantec.com/content.cfm?articleid=1539 .
  • According to summit attendees at the second annual "Wireless On Wall Street" conference, encrypted fully authenticated wireless network remains high on the list. Financial-services companies are under constant pressure from customers and employees to implement wireless technology because of the convenience it offers. For more information, see " Wireless Security Top Concern For Financial Companies" located at:
    http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=159903610&tid=13692
  • Worms and viruses are increasingly infecting wireless phones, PDAs and other devices. Even though mobile viruses, to date, haven't caused considerable damage to enterprises, there is reason for concern. A recent survey conducted by security specialist netSurity for RSA Security Inc. found that in the business district of London, the number of wireless LANs increased by 62% in 2004, with access points growing to 1,751 from 1,078. At the same time, security on the wireless networks got worse, leaving 36% of the companies open to potential attack, up from 25% in 2003. For more information see, "IT managers need to prepare for mobile viruses" located at: http://www.computerworld.com/mobiletopics/mobile/story/0,10801,100409,00.html
  • Instant messaging (IM) security threats are growing by 50 percent each month and could potentially spread across the globe in seconds. According to research from anti-virus firm F-Secure, virus writers are targeting instant messaging application due to their ability to spread malicious code faster than email worms. For more information, see "IM viruses increase by 50% a month" located at: http://www.vnunet.com/news/1162017
  • Federal and state law enforcement officials say sophisticated criminals have begun to use the unsecured Wi-Fi networks of unsuspecting consumers and businesses to help cover their tracks in cyberspace. Experts say most households with Wi-Fi connections never turn on any of the features, available in almost all Wi-Fi routers, that change the system's default settings, conceal the connection from others and encrypt the data sent over it. For more information, see "Growth of wireless Internet opens new path for thieves" located at: http://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/19/technology/19wifi.html.
  • Kaspersky Labs said there is evidence that a battle is shaping up between rival cyber gangs over the newest turf, infectable PCs. A new Trojan -- dubbed Small.bi -- removes a number of .exe files associated with Trojan-like names before it installs itself. For more information, see "Hacker turf war will lead to large e-crime gangs" located at: http://www.techweb.com/wire/security/159902363.

Viruses/Trojans

Top Ten Virus Threats

A list of high threat viruses, as reported to various anti-virus vendors and virus incident reporting organizations, has been ranked and categorized in the table below. For the purposes of collecting and collating data, infections involving multiple systems at a single location are considered a single infection. It is therefore possible that a virus has infected hundreds of machines but has only been counted once. With the number of viruses that appear each month, it is possible that a new virus will become widely distributed before the next edition of this publication. To limit the possibility of infection, readers are reminded to update their anti-virus packages as soon as updates become available. The table lists the viruses by ranking (number of sites affected), common virus name, type of virus code (i.e., boot, file, macro, multi-partite, script), trends (based on number of infections reported since last week), and approximate date first found.
