Summary of Security Items from January 5 through January 11, 2006
The CISA Vulnerability Bulletin provides a summary of new vulnerabilities that have been recorded in the past week. In some cases, the vulnerabilities in the bulletin may not yet have assigned CVSS scores.
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 products 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.
- Blackberry Enterprise Server Attachment Service PNG Attachment Remote Denial of Service:
A remote Denial of Service vulnerability has been reported when handling malformed PNG attachments. - British Parliament members demand Wi-Fi access: Wireless Internet access should be installed in parts of the Houses of Parliament to give its members access to information on the move. According to a report by the U.K. House of Commons Administration Committee, they are calling for secure wireless access after it found that some new members of Parliament struggled to work before they were given office space.
- Wireless Spending To Exceed Wireline In 2006: Study: According to a study by market research firm, In-Stat, enterprises will spend more for wireless voice service than on wireline in 2006.
In addition, the study found that wireless data service will start growing quickly, with an average growth rate of 18 percent a year through 2009.
This section contains brief summaries and links to articles which discuss or present
information pertinent to the cyber security community.
- Security flaws on the rise, questions remain: The number of publicly reported vulnerabilities jumped in 2005. This number was boosted by easy-to-find bugs in Web applications. A survey of four major vulnerability databases found that the number of flaws counted by each in the past five years differed significantly. However, three of the four databases exhibited a relative plateau in the number of flaws publicly disclosed in 2002 through 2004. And, every database saw a significant increase in their count of the flaws disclosed in 2005. Recent numbers produced by the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) revealed some of the problems with refined vulnerability sources. Managed by the CERT Coordination Center, the US-CERT's security bulletins outline security issues but are updated each week. In a year end list published last week, the US-CERT announced that 5,198 vulnerabilities had been reported in 2005.
- Your IM Buddy, Or A Hacker? It's Getting Harder To Tell:
Instant-messaging security vendors FaceTime Communications Inc. and IMlogic Inc. reported that malware delivered over instant-message clients skyrocketed in recent months. There has been more than a 20-fold increase in the number of reported IM worm and virus variants since 2004. - Popular certifications don't ensure security:According to a survey from the SANS Institute, many popular information technology security certifications don't improve holders' ability to ensure computer systems' security, according to a new survey from the SANS Institute, a training and education organization for security professionals.
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 folders. 2 Mytob-GH Win32 Worm Stable 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. 3 Netsky-D Win32 Worm Stable 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. 4 Zafi-B Win32 Worm Stable 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. 5 Sober-Z Win32 Worm Stable 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. 6 Lovgate.w Win32 Worm Stable 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. 7 Mytob.C Win32 Worm Stable 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. 8 Zafi-D Win32 Worm Stable 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. 9 Mytob-BE Win32 Worm Stable 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 anti virus, and modifying data. 10 Mytob-AS Win32 Worm Stable 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. Table updated January 11, 2006
