Tên: Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel

The product requires authentication, but the product has an alternate path or channel that does not require authentication.

Thông tin chung

Các cách xuất hiện

Architecture and Design : COMMISSION: This weakness refers to an incorrect design related to an architectural security tactic.
Architecture and Design : This is often seen in web applications that assume that access to a particular CGI program can only be obtained through a "front" screen, when the supporting programs are directly accessible. But this problem is not just in web apps.

CVE-2000-1179

Router allows remote attackers to read system logs without authentication by directly connecting to the login screen and typing certain control characters.

CVE-1999-1454

Attackers with physical access to the machine may bypass the password prompt by pressing the ESC (Escape) key.

CVE-1999-1077

OS allows local attackers to bypass the password protection of idled sessions via the programmer's switch or CMD-PWR keyboard sequence, which brings up a debugger that the attacker can use to disable the lock.

CVE-2003-0304

Direct request of installation file allows attacker to create administrator accounts.

CVE-2002-0870

Attackers may gain additional privileges by directly requesting the web management URL.

CVE-2002-0066

Bypass authentication via direct request to named pipe.

CVE-2003-1035

User can avoid lockouts by using an API instead of the GUI to conduct brute force password guessing.

Phases : Architecture and Design
Funnel all access through a single choke point to simplify how users can access a resource. For every access, perform a check to determine if the user has permissions to access the resource.

Ghi chú ánh xạ lỗ hổng

Lý do : This CWE entry is at the Base level of abstraction, which is a preferred level of abstraction for mapping to the root causes of vulnerabilities.
Bình luận : Carefully read both the name and description to ensure that this mapping is an appropriate fit. Do not try to 'force' a mapping to a lower-level Base/Variant simply to comply with this preferred level of abstraction.

ID CAPEC Tên mẫu tấn công
CAPEC-127 Directory Indexing
An adversary crafts a request to a target that results in the target listing/indexing the content of a directory as output. One common method of triggering directory contents as output is to construct a request containing a path that terminates in a directory name rather than a file name since many applications are configured to provide a list of the directory's contents when such a request is received. An adversary can use this to explore the directory tree on a target as well as learn the names of files. This can often end up revealing test files, backup files, temporary files, hidden files, configuration files, user accounts, script contents, as well as naming conventions, all of which can be used by an attacker to mount additional attacks.
