Cisco Security Advisory: Jabber Extensible Communications Platform and Cisco Unified Presence XML Denial of Service Vulnerability

A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in Jabber Extensible
Communications Platform (Jabber XCP) and Cisco Unified Presence. An
unauthenticated, remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by
sending malicious XML to an affected server. Successful exploitation
of this vulnerability could cause elevated memory and CPU
utilization, resulting in memory exhaustion and process crashes.
Repeated exploitation could result in a sustained DoS condition.

There are no workarounds available to mitigate exploitation of this
vulnerability.

vulnerabilities. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were
tricked into viewing server output during a crafted server request, a remote
attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data,

strategies to obtain exploitable information against a specific component. This is where 
benchmarking becomes useful.

When you speak of a 'benchmark' you are not only speaking about how fast a process is running but 
also about how efficient it is. In order to evaluate that you must rely on many more indicators, 
making the time a process runs only a part of a benchmark result.

A benchmark can also imply to analyze the following indicators:
- number of threads ran by process
- size of memory allocated by process/threads
- CPU consumption

DNS spoofing and cache poisoning attacks have been known security
threats that result from design weaknesses of the DNS protocol since the
early 1990s as described by Christopher Schuba [1] and Paul Vixie [2].
In 1997 a practical implementation of a blind remote DNS cache poisoning
attack that relies solely on exploiting the predictability of the ID
field of DNS query packets was described by Arce and Kargieman [3]. This
was followed up by further refinements and advancement of attack

Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco IOS Software WebVPN and SSLVPN Vulnerabilities

SSLVPN sessions cause a memory leak in the device
+------------------------------------------------

A device configured for SSLVPN may leak transmission control blocks
(TCBs) when processing an abnormally disconnected SSL session.
Continued exploitation may result in the device depleting its memory
resources and result in a crash of the device. Authentication is
"not" required to exploit this vulnerability.

The memory leak can be detected by running the command "show tcp
brief", like in the following example:

networks (L2VPN), Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol Version 3 (L2TPv3), Stack
Group Bidding Protocol (SGBP) and Cisco Virtual Private Dial-Up
Networks (VPDN). Once this process is enabled the device is
vulnerable.

This vulnerability will result in a reload of the device when
processing a specially crafted L2TP packet.

vulnerability.


Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco 10000, uBR10012, uBR7200 Series Devices IPC Vulnerability

channel. This channel uses addresses from the 127.0.0.0/8 range and
UDP port 1975. Cisco 10000, uBR10012 and uBR7200 series devices that
are running an affected version of Cisco IOS will process IPC
messages that are sent to UDP port 1975 from outside of the device.
This behavior may be exploited by an attacker to cause a reload of
the device, linecards, or both, resulting in a DoS condition.

Filtering unauthorized traffic destined to 127.0.0.0/8 or UDP port
1975 will mitigate this vulnerability.

This vulnerability is documented in the Cisco Bug IDs CSCsg15342

    arbitrary code execution on the guest system by an unprivileged
    guest user.  It doesn't matter on what host the Windows guest OS
    is running, as this is a guest driver vulnerability and not a
    vulnerability on the host.


CSW Security Advisory 0002: Oral B SmartMonitor Information Disclosure Vulnerability and DoS

Exploitation allows an attacker to gain sensitive information from the toothbrush. No authentication is required to reach the affected application. The attacker only needs to be able to monitor the wireless transmission.

The attacker can determine the users brushing habits. It is possible to report on the location of the mouth that is being brushed and the amount of time spent on each of four defined “quantrants”. 

An attacker could also conduct a serious DoS attack. Flooding the wireless communications causes the unit to stop responding. This can result in the following actions:
A.      A continued DoS could cause the bristle monitor to not send an end of life signal to the SmartMonitor system leaving the user to continue using an old toothbrush head which could eventually lead to dental failure. The failure to monitor the most effective head life could result in bristle failure.
B.      Dental statistics could be erased from the monitor unit. This would leave the user unable to determine and report on their brushing habits. This could lead to user confusion and over or under brushing leading to tooth wear.
C.      Fake battery life transmissions can be sent making the user believe that the battery life is in fact longer than is truly stored. This could lead to a catastrophic brushing failure where the toothbrush runs out of power in mid-clean. A continued long term attack could lead to the creation of cavities in the user’s teeth.  

A forensic analysis of the SmartMonitor unit can be conducted to recover deleted brushing sessions. A user who was attempting to cover a period of lapsed dental care could be investigated and the deleted data recovered. In some cases it is feasible that this could result in a reduction of user privileges and possible punitive action (especially where the analysis is conducted by the parent administrative body).

Advisory SE-2008-02: PHP GENERATE_SEED() Weak Random Number Seed Vulnerability

   -------------------
   When you have a look on the code generated by the compiler you will
   see that it first multiplies the timestamp, process identifier and
   the numerical factor. This is performed in modular integer arithmetic. 
   It was therefore evaluated how likely it is that the multiplication 
   will result in a zero, because then the seed will be zero, too.
   (on older PHP versions the seed will be 1 for mt_rand() because the
    lowest bit will be forced to be 1)

   1000000 is a number with its lowest 6 bits set to zero. Therefore
   the multiplication will result in zero if the timestamp and process

Cisco Security Advisory: Multiple DLSw Denial of Service Vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS

Summary
=======

Cisco IOS contains multiple vulnerabilities in the Data-link
Switching (DLSw) feature that may result in a reload or memory leaks
when processing specially crafted UDP or IP Protocol 91 packets.

Cisco has released free software updates that address these
vulnerabilities. Workarounds are available to mitigate the effects of
these vulnerabilities.
