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.

####################################################################### Luigi Auriemma Application: MG-SOFT Net Inspector http://www.mg-soft.com/netinsp.html (bug C affects any MgWTrap3 service which is included in almost all the MG-SOFT products like MIB Browser, Query Manager, Trap Ringer Pro and so on) Versions: Net Inspector <= 6.5.0.828 Platforms: Windows and Linux Bugs: A] format string in mghttpd B] directory traversal in mghttpd C] crash in MgWTrap3 D] Denial of Service in niengine Exploitation: remote Date: 14 Mar 2008 Author: Luigi Auriemma e-mail: [email protected] web: aluigi.org ####################################################################### 1) Introduction 2) Bugs 3) The Code 4) Fix ####################################################################### =============== 1) Introduction =============== >From vendor's website: "MG-SOFT Net Inspector is a powerful fault management application with alarming subsystem that complies with the international alarm reporting recommendations (ITU X.733). The software lets you effectively monitor the status of network devices and manage alarms associated with devices in the supervised TCP/IP network." ####################################################################### ======= 2) Bugs ======= --------------------------- A] format string in mghttpd --------------------------- mghttpd is a simple HTTP daemon running on port 5228 used to allow the clients to download the Net Inspector Java Client. This server is affected by a format string vulnerability located in the function which logs the clients requests in the log file. --------------------------------- B] directory traversal in mghttpd --------------------------------- This service is also affected by a classical directory traversal vulnerability using both the slash and backslash plain delimiters which can be exploited to download files from the disk on which is located the server. -------------------- C] crash in MgWTrap3 -------------------- The SNMP Trap Service other than binding the local TCP port 8888 and the UDP 162 for collecting SNMP queries, binds also an additional UDP port which changes each time the service is executed (uses the first free available port). Sending a packet (empty or with any desired content since it's not important) directly to this port raises an exception which terminates the service immediately. This service is the core of almost all the MG-SOFT products which so result all vulnerable. -------------------------------- D] Denial of Service in niengine -------------------------------- The Net Inspector Fault Management server (niengine) can be easily freezed with CPU at 100% and full memory consumption through a malformed or incomplete packet. ####################################################################### =========== 3) The Code =========== A] GET /%n%n%s%s%n%n%n%s HTTP/1.0 B] GET ../../../../boot.ini HTTP/1.0 GET \../..\../..\windows/win.ini HTTP/1.0 C] echo|nc SERVER PORT -v -v -u D] echo -n -e \x2a\x45\x67\xf2\x00\x00\x00\x00|nc SERVER 5221 -v -v -w 1 ####################################################################### ====== 4) Fix ====== No fix ####################################################################### # milw0rm.com [2008-03-17]
