CAPEC-Beschreibungen

An attacker forces the target into a previous state in order to leverage potential weaknesses in the target dependent upon a prior configuration or state-dependent factors. Even in cases where an attacker may not be able to directly control the configuration of the targeted application, they may be able to reset the configuration to a prior state since many applications implement reset functions.

CAPEC-Informationen

Voraussetzungen

The targeted application must have a reset function that returns the configuration of the application to an earlier state.
The reset functionality must be inadequately protected against use.

Erforderliche Ressourcen

None: No specialized resources are required to execute this type of attack. In some cases, the attacker may need special client applications in order to execute the reset functionality.

Verwandte Schwachstellen

CWE-ID Name der Schwachstelle

CWE-306

Missing Authentication for Critical Function
The product does not perform any authentication for functionality that requires a provable user identity or consumes a significant amount of resources.

CWE-1221

Incorrect Register Defaults or Module Parameters
Hardware description language code incorrectly defines register defaults or hardware Intellectual Property (IP) parameters to insecure values.

CWE-1232

Improper Lock Behavior After Power State Transition
Register lock bit protection disables changes to system configuration once the bit is set. Some of the protected registers or lock bits become programmable after power state transitions (e.g., Entry and wake from low power sleep modes) causing the system configuration to be changeable.
