CAPEC-194: Fake the Source of Data
CAPEC版本: 3.9
更新日期: 2023-01-24
攻击模式描述
An adversary takes advantage of improper authentication to provide data or services under a falsified identity. The purpose of using the falsified identity may be to prevent traceability of the provided data or to assume the rights granted to another individual. One of the simplest forms of this attack would be the creation of an email message with a modified "From" field in order to appear that the message was sent from someone other than the actual sender. The root of the attack (in this case the email system) fails to properly authenticate the source and this results in the reader incorrectly performing the instructed action. Results of the attack vary depending on the details of the attack, but common results include privilege escalation, obfuscation of other attacks, and data corruption/manipulation.
前提条件
- This attack is only applicable when a vulnerable entity associates data or services with an identity. Without such an association, there would be no reason to fake the source.
所需资源
- Resources required vary depending on the nature of the attack. Possible tools needed by an attacker could include tools to create custom network packets, specific client software, and tools to capture network traffic. Many variants of this attack require no attacker resources, however.
后果影响
影响范围: Integrity
技术影响: Alter Execution Logic
说明: By faking the source of data or services, an adversary can cause a target to make incorrect decisions about how to proceed.
影响范围: Integrity
技术影响: Gain Privileges
说明: By impersonating identities that have an increased level of access, an adversary gain privilege that they many not have otherwise had.
影响范围: Integrity
技术影响: Hide Activities
说明: Faking the source of data or services can be used to create a false trail in logs as the target will associate any actions with the impersonated identity instead of the adversary.
