Summary of Security Items from January 26 through February 1, 2006
The CISA Vulnerability Bulletin provides a summary of new vulnerabilities that have been recorded by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) National Vulnerability Database (NVD) in the past week. NVD is sponsored by CISA. In some cases, the vulnerabilities in the bulletin may not yet have assigned CVSS scores. Please visit NVD for updated vulnerability entries, which include CVSS scores once they are available.
Vulnerabilities are based on the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) vulnerability naming standard and are organized according to severity, determined by the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) standard. The division of high, medium, and low severities correspond to the following scores:
- High: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 7.0–10.0
- Medium: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 4.0–6.9
- Low: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 0.0–3.9
Entries may include additional information provided by organizations and efforts sponsored by CISA. This information may include identifying information, values, definitions, and related links. Patch information is provided when available. Please note that some of the information in the bulletin is compiled from external, open-source reports and is not a direct result of CISA analysis.
The US-CERT Cyber Security Bulletin provides a summary of new and updated vulnerabilities, exploits, trends, and malicious code that have recently been openly reported. Information in the Cyber Security Bulletin is a compilation of open source and US-CERT vulnerability information. As such, the Cyber Security Bulletin includes information published by sources outside of US-CERT and should not be considered the result of US-CERT analysis or as an official report of US-CERT. Although this information does reflect open source reports, it is not an official description and should be used for informational purposes only. The intention of the Cyber Security Bulletin is to serve as a comprehensive directory of pertinent vulnerability reports, providing brief summaries and additional sources for further investigation.
The tables below summarize vulnerabilities that have been reported by various open source organizations or presented in newsgroups and on web sites. Items in bold designate updates that have been made to past entries. Entries are grouped by the operating system on which the reported software operates, and vulnerabilities which affect both Windows and Unix/ Linux Operating Systems are included in the Multiple Operating Systems table. Note, entries in each table are not necessarily vulnerabilities in that operating system, but vulnerabilities in software which operate on some version of that operating system.
Entries may contain additional US-CERT sponsored information, including Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) numbers, National Vulnerability Database (NVD) links, Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) values, Open Vulnerability and Assessment Language (OVAL) definitions, or links to US-CERT Vulnerability Notes. Metrics, values, and information included in the Cyber Security Bulletin which has been provided by other US-CERT sponsored programs, is prepared, managed, and contributed by those respective programs. CVSS values are managed and provided by the US-CERT/ NIST National Vulnerability Database. Links are also provided to patches and workarounds that have been provided by the product’s vendor.
The Risk levels are defined below:
High - Vulnerabilities will be labeled “High” severity if they have a CVSS base score of 7.0-10.0.
Medium - Vulnerabilities will be labeled “Medium” severity if they have a base CVSS score of 4.0-6.9.
Low - Vulnerabilities will be labeled “Low” severity if they have a CVSS base score of 0.0-3.9.
Note that scores provided prior to 11/9/2005 are approximated from only partially available CVSS metric data. Such scores are marked as "Approximated" within NVD. In particular, the following CVSS metrics are only partially available for these vulnerabilities and NVD assumes certain values based on an approximation algorithm: AccessComplexity, Authentication, ConfImpact of 'partial', IntegImpact of 'partial', AvailImpact of 'partial', and the impact biases.

Wireless Trends & Vulnerabilities
This section contains wireless vulnerabilities, articles, and malicious code
that has been identified during the current reporting period.
- Bluetooth set to take over wireless from Wi-Fi... : The IEEE has abandoned its effort to create a Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) standard, but has agreed on a draft for the next generation of WiFi, 802.11n.
- Mobile devices are IT managers' security headache: According to a survey of 500 enterprise IT managers in the U.S., U.K., Germany and France, two-thirds of IT managers are still experiencing security breaches because of poor practices on mobile devices. The surveyfound that companies lacked the necessary corporate policies to prevent laptops and other devices access to the network without adequate security checks. Sixty-six percent of IT Managers experienced security breaches and feel anti-virus software is not enough to keep malware out of their infrastructure. Sixty percent of respondents said their organization has no way of scanning devices connecting to their network or quarantining any system that does not meet their company's security requirements.
This section contains brief summaries and links to articles which discuss or present
information pertinent to the cyber security community.
- Expert: Botnets No. 1 emerging Internet threat: According to the security firm, Panda Labs, bots are the fastest growing malware threat. More than 10,000 new variants were detected last year. They reported a 175-percent jump in new bots in 2005, making them 20 percent of the total new malware detected.
- Exploit for Buffer Overflow Vulnerability in Winamp: US-CERT is aware of a public exploit for a buffer overflow vulnerability in Winamp. The buffer overflow is triggered when Winamp processes a specially crafted playlist (.PLS) file that has a long computer name.
- BIOS Could Hide Rootkits: According to a presentation at the Black Hat conference in Washington, D.C., attackers armed with rootkits may hide some of their malicious code inside the PC's BIOS flash memory. Attackers could use the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI), a collection of power management controls, and its programming language to code and/or deploy a rootkit into the BIOS flash memory. They could even replace legitimate functions in the ACPI's language with their own, malicious, operations.
- Security vendors open another front against spyware: Trend Micro, Symantec, and McAfee have joined forced with ICSA Labs and Thompson Cyber Security Labs to develop standards for spyware detection.
- Browsers face triple threat: According to Polish security researcher, Michael Zalewski, due to the way cookies are handled three bugs exist that could be used to carry out attacks on commercial websites. The bugs are fundamental to the design and implementation of cookies. One of which was first disclosed eight years ago, but still hasn't been fixed in the major browsers.
name=viruses id="viruses">Viruses/Trojans Top Ten Virus Threats
A list of high threat viruses, as reported to various anti-virus vendors and virus incident reporting organizations, has been ranked and categorized in the table below. For the purposes of collecting and collating data, infections involving multiple systems at a single location are considered a single infection. It is therefore possible that a virus has infected hundreds of machines but has only been counted once. With the number of viruses that appear each month, it is possible that a new virus will become widely distributed before the next edition of this publication. To limit the possibility of infection, readers are reminded to update their anti-virus packages as soon as updates become available. The table lists the viruses by ranking (number of sites affected), common virus name, type of virus code (i.e., boot, file, macro, multi-partite, script), trends (based on number of infections reported since last week), and approximate date first found.
1 Netsky-P Win32 Worm Stable March 2004 A mass-mailing worm that uses its own SMTP engine to send itself to the email addresses it finds when scanning the hard drives and mapped drives. The worm also tries to spread through various file-sharing programs by copying itself into various shared folder. 2 Lovgate.w Win32 Worm Increase April 2004 A mass-mailing worm that propagates via by using MAPI as a reply to messages, by using an internal SMTP, by dropping copies of itself on network shares, and through peer-to-peer networks. Attempts to access all machines in the local area network. 3 Mytob-GH Win32 Worm Slight Decrease November 2005 A variant of the mass-mailing worm that disables security related programs and allows other to access the infected system. This version sends itself to email addresses harvested from the system, forging the sender’s address. 4 Netsky-D Win32 Worm Slight Decrease March 2004 A simplified variant of the Netsky mass-mailing worm in that it does not contain many of the text strings that were present in NetSky.C and it does not copy itself to shared folders. Netsky.D spreads itself in e-mails as an executable attachment only. 5 Mytob.C Win32 Worm Increase March 2004 A mass-mailing worm with IRC backdoor functionality which can also infect computers vulnerable to the Windows LSASS (MS04-011) exploit. The worm will attempt to harvest email addresses from the local hard disk by scanning files. 6 Mytob-BE Win32 Worm Increase June 2005 A slight variant of the mass-mailing worm that utilizes an IRC backdoor, LSASS vulnerability, and email to propagate. Harvesting addresses from the Windows address book, disabling antivirus, and modifying data. 7 Sober-Z Win32 Worm Decrease December 2005 This worm travels as an email attachment, forging the senders address, harvesting addresses from infected machines, and using its own mail engine. It further download code from the internet, installs into the registry, and reduces overall system security. 8 Zafi-B Win32 Worm Decrease June 2004 A mass-mailing worm that spreads via e-mail using several different languages, including English, Hungarian and Russian. When executed, the worm makes two copies of itself in the %System% directory with randomly generated file names. 9 Mytob-AS Win32 Worm Slight Increase June 2005 A slight variant of the mass-mailing worm that disables security related programs and processes, redirection various sites, and changing registry values. This version downloads code from the net and utilizes its own email engine. 10 Zafi-D Win32 Worm Decrease December 2004 A mass-mailing worm that sends itself to email addresses gathered from the infected computer. The worm may also attempt to lower security settings, terminate processes, and open a back door on the compromised computer. Table updated February 1, 2006
