CAPEC 描述

This attack exploits terminal devices that allow themselves to be written to by other users. The attacker sends command strings to the target terminal device hoping that the target user will hit enter and thereby execute the malicious command with their privileges. The attacker can send the results (such as copying /etc/passwd) to a known directory and collect once the attack has succeeded.

CAPEC 資訊

執行流程

1) Explore

[Identify attacker-writable terminals] Determine if users TTYs are writable by the attacker.

技術
  • Determine the permissions for the TTYs found on the system. Any that allow user write to the TTY may be vulnerable.
  • Attempt to write to other user TTYs. This approach could leave a trail or alert a user.
2) Exploit

[Execute malicious commands] Using one or more vulnerable TTY, execute commands to achieve various impacts.

技術
  • Commands that allow reading or writing end user files can be executed.

前置條件

User terminals must have a permissive access control such as world writeable that allows normal users to control data on other user's terminals.

所需技能

Ability to discover permissions on terminal devices. Of course, brute force can also be used.

所需資源

Access to a terminal on the target network

緩解措施

Design: Ensure that terminals are only writeable by named owner user and/or administrator
Design: Enforce principle of least privilege

CWE-ID 弱點名稱

CWE-77

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command
The product constructs all or part of a command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended command when it is sent to a downstream component.
