چکیده

Network protocols continue to suffer from well documented vulnerabilities. Despite this, a practical methodology for classifying these vulnerabilities does not exist. In this paper, we present such a methodology. We have developed a grammar for expressing network protocol exploits in terms of vulnerabilities and symptoms. Vulnerabilities are defined by characteristics, conditions which must hold for a vulnerability to exist. Symptoms are the violations of policy enabled by vulnerabilities. Exploits, then, are the pairing of vulnerabilities with their corresponding symptoms. Using our grammar, we analyzed many protocols and present our classifications visually using syntax trees. We detail the classification process, and discuss future applications of this work towards a secure protocol design framework.

Research on Memory Access Vulnerability Analysis Technique in SCADA Protocol Implementation

SCADA systems play key roles in monitor and control of the critical infrastructures, the vulnerabilities existed in them may destroy the controlled critical infrastructures. This paper proposes an analysis method of memory access vulnerability in SCADA protocol implementation. Firstly, the memory taintedness model of SCADA protocol implementation is formally defined. Based on this model, the de...

IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) network is considered as an NGN (Next Generation Network) core networks by ETSI. Decomposition of IMS core network has resulted in a rapid increase of control and signaling message that makes security a required capability for IMS commercialization. The control messages are transmitted using SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) which is an application layer protocol. ...

Security testing of session initiation protocol implementations

The mechanisms which enable the vast majority of computer attacks are based on design and programming errors in networked applications. The growing use of voice over IP (VOIP) phone technology makes these phone applications potential targets. We present a tool to perform security testing of VOIP applications to identify security vulnerabilities which can be exploited by an attacker. Session Ini...
