Summary of Security Items from March 2 through March 8, 2005
The CISA Vulnerability Bulletin provides a summary of new vulnerabilities that have been recorded in the past week. In some cases, the vulnerabilities in the bulletin may not yet have assigned CVSS scores.
Vulnerabilities are based on the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) vulnerability naming standard and are organized according to severity, determined by the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) standard. The division of high, medium, and low severities correspond to the following scores:
- High: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 7.0–10.0
- Medium: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 4.0–6.9
- Low: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 0.0–3.9
Entries may include additional information provided by organizations and efforts sponsored by CISA. This information may include identifying information, values, definitions, and related links. Patch information is provided when available. Please note that some of the information in the bulletin is compiled from external, open-source reports and is not a direct result of CISA analysis.
Information in the US-CERT Cyber Security Bulletin is a compilation and includes information published by outside sources, so the information should not be considered the result of US-CERT analysis. Software vulnerabilities are categorized in the appropriate section reflecting the operating system on which the vulnerability was reported; however, this does not mean that the vulnerability only affects the operating system reported since this information is obtained from open-source information.
This bulletin provides a summary of new or updated vulnerabilities, exploits, trends, viruses, and trojans. Updates to items appearing in previous bulletins are listed in bold text. The text in the Risk column appears in red for vulnerabilities ranking High. The risks levels applied to vulnerabilities in the Cyber Security Bulletin are based on how the "system" may be impacted. The Recent Exploit/Technique table contains a "Workaround or Patch Available" column that indicates whether a workaround or patch has been published for the vulnerability which the script exploits.
Bugs,
Holes, & Patches
The table below summarizes vulnerabilities that have been identified, even if they are not being exploited. Complete details about patches or workarounds are available from the source of the information or from the URL provided in the section. CVE numbers are listed where applicable. Vulnerabilities that affect both Windows and Unix Operating Systems are included in the Multiple Operating Systems section.
Note: All the information included in the following tables has been discussed in newsgroups and on web sites.
The Risk levels defined below are based on how the system may be impacted:
- High - A high-risk vulnerability is defined as one that will allow an intruder to immediately gain privileged access (e.g., sysadmin or root) to the system or allow an intruder to execute code or alter arbitrary system files. An example of a high-risk vulnerability is one that allows an unauthorized user to send a sequence of instructions to a machine and the machine responds with a command prompt with administrator privileges.
- Medium - A medium-risk vulnerability is defined as one that will allow an intruder immediate access to a system with less than privileged access. Such vulnerability will allow the intruder the opportunity to continue the attempt to gain privileged access. An example of medium-risk vulnerability is a server configuration error that allows an intruder to capture the password file.
- Low - A low-risk vulnerability is defined as one that will provide information to an intruder that could lead to further compromise attempts or a Denial of Service (DoS) attack. It should be noted that while the DoS attack is deemed low from a threat potential, the frequency of this type of attack is very high. DoS attacks against mission-critical nodes are not included in this rating and any attack of this nature should instead be considered to be a "High" threat.

- On Monday, February 28th, the National Institute of Standards and Technology released the final version of security guidelines designed to protect federal computer systems and the information they hold. The guidelines will serve as a road map for federal agencies in meeting mandates set by the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISA). For more information, see "NIST releases final security guidelines" located at: http://news.com.com/NIST+releases+final+security+guidelines/2100-7348_3-5593256.html?tag=nefd.top
- In a survey conducted by CDW Government, Inc. at the 2005 IPIC conference, federal information technology executives say that cybersecurity is their chief concern. Forty-three percent of federal executives surveyed at a conference this week in Orlando, Fla., said information technology security was their highest priority for 2005.

- When phishing emerged as a serious problem in 2003, many law enforcement agencies were caught off guard. As a result, the FBI and the Secret Service have relied on the private sector for a great deal of help in tracking down phishing sites and taking them offline.

name=viruses id="viruses">Viruses/Trojans Top Ten Virus Threats
A list of high threat viruses, as reported to various anti-virus vendors and virus incident reporting organizations, has been ranked and categorized in the table below. For the purposes of collecting and collating data, infections involving multiple systems at a single location are considered a single infection. It is therefore possible that a virus has infected hundreds of machines but has only been counted once. With the number of viruses that appear each month, it is possible that a new virus will become widely distributed before the next edition of this publication. To limit the possibility of infection, readers are reminded to update their anti-virus packages as soon as updates become available. The table lists the viruses by ranking (number of sites affected), common virus name, type of virus code (i.e., boot, file, macro, multi-partite, script), trends (based on number of infections reported since last week), and approximate date first found.

Table Updated March 8, 2005
Viruses or Trojans Considered to be a High Level of Threat
- Kelvir.B: Security watchers have warned that the Kelvir.B worm has begun spreading around the world, dropping a payload in the form of another worm, known as Spybot, on infected PCs. The worm spreads using MSN Messenger when unwitting recipients click on a URL in a message reading: "lol! see it! u'll like it" Once clicked the link downloads a variant of the Spybot worm and sends a message to everyone else on the user's contact list. For more information see: http://www.vnunet.com/news/1161784
- Commwarrior-A: The first mobile phone virus capable of replicating via MMS messages has been discovered. Commwarrior-A, which targets Symbian Series 60 phones, is not spreading, but its ability to propagate via Multimedia Messaging Service messages (MMS) worries some experts. For more information see: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/03/08/mms_virus/
- Dampig: Virus writers have created a new Trojan capable of infecting Symbian Series 60 smartphones. Dampig-A attempts to trick users into downloading it by posing as the cracked version of the FSCaller application, developed by SymbianWare of Germany. Dampig corrupts the system uninstallation information so it cannot be removed without disinfecting the phone with anti-virus. For more information see: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/03/07/dampig_symbian_trojan/
The following table provides, in alphabetical order, a list of new viruses, variations of previously encountered viruses, and Trojans that have been discovered during the period covered by this bulletin. This information has been compiled from the following anti-virus vendors: Sophos, Trend Micro, Symantec, McAfee, Network Associates, Central Command, F-Secure, Kaspersky Labs, MessageLabs, Panda Software, Computer Associates, and The WildList Organization International. Users should keep anti-virus software up to date and should contact their anti-virus vendors to obtain specific information on the Trojans and Trojan variants that anti-virus software detects.
NOTE: At times, viruses and Trojans may contain names or content that may be considered offensive.
