Predictable DNS transaction IDs in Microsoft DNS Server

2) Vulnerability Description

Microsoft DNS server generates predictable DNS transaction IDs. If the
server is configured to allow recursive queries it is possible to insert
fake records in the DNS cache (DNS cache poisoning) by guessing the next
transaction ID that the server will use and sending a spoofed DNS reply
to the server. To observe the transaction IDs an attacker needs to
control a DNS server that is authoritative for some domain and to be
able to send a recursive queries to the caching Microsoft DNS server.


Advisory: Opera Mobile Cache Poisoning XAS

1 Background
=============
Android applications are executed in a sandbox environment, to ensure that no
application can access sensitive information held by another, without adequate
privileges. For example, Opera Mobile holds sensitive information such as
cookies, cache and history, and this cannot be accessed by third-party apps. An
android app may request specific privileges during its installation; if granted
by the user, the app's capabilities are extended.

One mechanism which Android uses in order to implement the sandbox, is running
each application as a separate process, and as a Linux user which is private to

[CORE-2010-0427] Windows SMTP Service DNS query Id vulnerabilities

3. *Vulnerability Description*

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

After 6 months - fix available for Microsoft DNS cache poisoning attack

After 6 months - fix available for Microsoft DNS cache poisoning
attack

On April this year I discovered a new vulnerability that enables
DNS cache poisoning attack against the Windows DNS server. Today
(November 13th, 2007) - six and a half months after being informed
- Microsoft released a fix for this vulnerability. As the fix is
now publicly available, I can finally share my research finding
with you.


Microsoft Windows DNS Stub Resolver Cache Poisoning (MS08-020)

The Microsoft Windows DNS stub resolver (the component in Windows
that queries the upstream DNS server for address resolutions on
behalf of most Windows programs, e.g. browsers) sends predictable
DNS queries with respect to DNS transaction ID and source UDP
port. This allows some interesting attacks on DNS clients (i.e.
desktops), including DNS cache poisoning of the client's local
DNS cache (which is maintained by the stub resolver).

Affected products: Windows Vista, Windows XP SP2, Windows 2003
and Windows 2000 SP4.


BIND 8 EOL and BIND 8 DNS Cache Poisoning (Amit Klein, Trusteer)

BIND 8 EOL and BIND 8 DNS Cache Poisoning

Note: this is a different attack from BIND 9 DNS cache poisoning.

I discovered a new weakness in BIND 8 DNS server which enables "DNS
Forgery Pharming". An attacker can remotely poison the cache of any
BIND 8 caching DNS server and force users who use this DNS server to
reach fraudulent websites each time they try to access real websites.
BIND 8 is still a very popular DNS server nowadays thus this attack
applies to a big part of Internet users.

Whitepaper: DNS zone redelegation

Newly emerging techniques of DNS cache poisoning have caused quite a
stir recently, prompting security researchers to speculate on the nature
of the issue, and naturally inducing press stunts by some individuals,
including "accidential" information leaks and hasty exploit releases.
Many other, more relaxed researchers, who had figured out the attack and
had coded working exploits within a few hours (which, by the way, was
incredibly easy to do, knowing that an undocumented attack actually
existed), decided to coordinate with Dan Kaminsky, who had organized a
huge multi-vendor security patch, and withhold information for the
proposed 30 days.

RSA Key Manager SQL injection Vulnerability ( CVE-2010-1904 )

Vendor Contact Date: 4/20/2010
Status: Vendor does not want to fix the vulnerability.


Vulnerability Details:
RSA Key Manager Client software uses an SQLite database to cache its encryption keys. The software fails to properly validate the metadata embedded inside of the RSA Key Manager encrypted data when it perform a key lookup when the encrypted data is being decrypted.An attacker can inject SQL commands into the metadata section of the RSA Key Manager encrypted data, which will be executed by the Key Manager Client software. For example, an attacker can inject SQL statements to modify existing encryption keys, remove existing encryption keys, add new encryption keys, etc.

The Key Manager client uses two types of cache: memory cache and file cache. As long as both or either of the caches are enabled the problem can be triggered easily. 
RSA Key Manager Client 1.5.x uses the following format when it encrypts data:
Field 1 = KeyIdStringField 2 = NULL TerminatorField 3 = Encryption IVField 4 = Encrypted Data

refresh header in an HTML response.  The browser subsequently uses this
within the next GET request (and the referer header field of the next
HTTP request), placing the session ID in history files, and both client

made worse by the application not setting the HTTP cache control headers
appropriately, which can lead to the HTML content being stored within
the local browser cache.
