Unspecified vulnerability in the Sound component in Oracle Java SE and Java for Business 6 Update 18, 5.0 Update 23, 1.4.2_25, and 1.3.1_27 allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors. NOTE: the previous information was obtained from the March 2010 CPU. Oracle has not commented on claims from a reliable researcher that this is an uncontrolled array index that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a MIDI file with a crafted MixerSequencer object, related to the GM_Song structure.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Detect delivery of a crafted RMF file containing an embedded MIDI with a malicious controller event served over HTTP, identifiable by Content-Type 'application/octet-strem' (note the typo used by the exploit module). ↗
- →Monitor HTTP responses serving files with a .rmf extension, especially when followed by a .jar file request from the same browser session, as the exploit delivers both an RMF and a JAR payload. ↗
- →Alert on Java processes loading or playing RMF/MIDI files that trigger MixerSequencer object instantiation, particularly where EBX register is used as a jump target pointing into MIDI file data (shellcode stored in a fake MIDI event). ↗
- →The exploit uses a SONG block inside an RMF file to populate the GM_Song structure with an attacker-controlled function pointer; inspect RMF files for SONG blocks containing unexpected pointer-sized values. ↗
- →The exploit uses 'migrate -f' as an InitialAutoRunScript, meaning post-exploitation process migration will occur immediately; monitor for unexpected child process spawning from java.exe or javaw.exe shortly after RMF/MIDI file access. ↗
- ·The exploit targets Java 6 Update 18 and earlier (also 6u17 confirmed); the ROP gadget address 0x7C35A78D (jmp ebx in msvcr71.dll) is version-specific and may not apply to other Java or Windows configurations. ↗
- ·The exploit platform is Windows only; the jmp-ebx gadget from msvcr71.dll is a Windows-specific DLL and this technique does not apply to Linux/macOS Java deployments. ↗
- ·The Content-Type value used in the exploit ('application/octet-strem') contains a deliberate typo; detection rules matching the standard 'application/octet-stream' spelling will miss this specific exploit delivery. ↗

CVE-2010-3432 [HIGH] CWE-228 kernel: sctp: do not reset the packet during sctp_packet_config
kernel: sctp: do not reset the packet during sctp_packet_config
The sctp_packet_config function in net/sctp/output.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.35.6 performs extraneous initializations of packet data structures, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via a certain sequence of SCTP traffic.
Statement: This issue did not affect the version of Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 as it did not include support for SCTP.

Java MixerSequencer Object GM_Song Structure Handling Vulnerability
This module exploits a flaw within the handling of MixerSequencer objects in Java 6u18 and before. Exploitation id done by supplying a specially crafted MIDI file within an RMF File. When the MixerSequencer objects is used to play the file, the GM_Song structure is populated with a function pointer provided by a SONG block in the RMF. A Midi block that contains a MIDI with a specially crafted controller event is used to trigger the vulnerability. When triggering the vulnerability "ebx" points to a fake event in the MIDI file which stores the shellcode. A "jmp ebx" from msvcr71.dll is used to make the exploit reliable over java updates.

In early October, a story was published by the Wall Street Journal alleging Kaspersky Lab software was used to siphon classified data from an NSA employee’s home computer system. Given that Kaspersky Lab has been at the forefront of fighting cyberespionage and cybercriminal activities on the Internet for over 20 years now, these allegations were treated very seriously. To assist any independent investigators and all the people who have been asking us questions whether those allegations were true, we decided to conduct an internal investigation to attempt to answer a few questions we had related to the article and some others that followed it:
