CAPEC-636: Hiding Malicious Data or Code within Files

Standard Draft 严重程度: High

CAPEC版本: 3.9

更新日期: 2023-01-24

攻击模式描述

Files on various operating systems can have a complex format which allows for the storage of other data, in addition to its contents. Often this is metadata about the file, such as a cached thumbnail for an image file. Unless utilities are invoked in a particular way, this data is not visible during the normal use of the file. It is possible for an attacker to store malicious data or code using these facilities, which would be difficult to discover.

前提条件

  • The operating system must support a file system that allows for alternate data storage for a file.

缓解措施

Many tools are available to search for the hidden data. Scan regularly for such data using one of these tools.
