This is the root goal. Success means the attacker achieves unauthorized access, DoS, or code execution by exploiting Coil or its integration.

This critical node represents targeting vulnerabilities directly within the Coil library itself. While less likely, it has high impact if successful. * Supply Malicious Image Data [CRITICAL]: A sub-node focusing on providing malicious image files to Coil. * Image Bomb (Denial of Service) [HIGH-RISK]: * Attack Vector: Supplying extremely large or complex images to exhaust device resources. * Likelihood: Medium * Impact: Medium (DoS) * Effort: Low * Skill Level: Low * Detection Difficulty: Low

This critical node focuses on attacks targeting the network layer used by Coil to fetch images. * Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attack [HIGH-RISK]: * Attack Vector: Intercepting network traffic and replacing legitimate images with malicious ones. * Likelihood: Medium (depending on network environment) * Impact: Medium to High (Malware delivery, phishing) * Effort: Medium * Skill Level: Medium * Detection Difficulty: Medium * Related Actions: * Intercept network traffic between application and image server. [HIGH-RISK] * Replace legitimate image with malicious image. [HIGH-RISK] * Exploit lack of proper HTTPS or certificate validation in application's Coil configuration (if any). [HIGH-RISK] * URL Manipulation/Injection [HIGH-RISK] [CRITICAL]: * Attack Vector: Injecting malicious URLs to force Coil to load images from attacker-controlled servers. * Likelihood: Medium to High (if input validation is weak) * Impact: Medium to High (Malware delivery, phishing, SSRF) * Effort: Low * Skill Level: Low * Detection Difficulty: Medium * Related Actions: * Identify application logic that constructs image URLs dynamically. [HIGH-RISK] * Inject malicious URLs into the application (e.g., through user input, API calls). [HIGH-RISK] * Force Coil to load images from attacker-controlled malicious servers. [HIGH-RISK] * Cache Poisoning [HIGH-RISK]: * Attack Vector: Injecting malicious images into Coil's cache, often via MitM or server compromise, leading to persistent serving of malicious content. * Likelihood: Low to Medium (dependent on MitM or server compromise) * Impact: Medium to High (Persistent malware delivery, phishing to multiple users) * Effort: Medium to High (dependent on MitM or server compromise) * Skill Level: Medium to High (dependent on MitM or server compromise) * Detection Difficulty: Medium to High * Related Actions: * Exploit MitM or Server-Side Compromise to inject malicious image into Coil's cache. [HIGH-RISK] * Ensure malicious image is cached and served to subsequent users. [HIGH-RISK] * Leverage cached malicious image for persistent compromise. [HIGH-RISK] * Cache Overflow/DoS [HIGH-RISK]: * Attack Vector: Forcing the application to load a large number of unique images to exhaust cache resources and cause DoS. * Likelihood: Medium * Impact: Medium (DoS) * Effort: Low * Skill Level: Low * Detection Difficulty: Low to Medium * Related Actions: * Force application to load a large number of unique images to fill the cache. [HIGH-RISK] * Exhaust device storage or memory allocated for Coil's cache. [HIGH-RISK] * Degrade application performance or cause crashes due to cache exhaustion. [HIGH-RISK]

This node represents attacks exploiting insecure or misconfigured Coil settings within the application. * Insecure Coil Configuration [HIGH-RISK]: * Attack Vector: Exploiting insecure configurations like disabled certificate validation or insecure network protocols. * Likelihood: Low to Medium (developer misconfigurations) * Impact: Medium to High (Weakened security, enabling MitM) * Effort: Low * Skill Level: Low to Medium * Detection Difficulty: Medium * Related Actions: * Exploit insecure configurations (e.g., disabled certificate validation, insecure network protocols). [HIGH-RISK] * Manipulate Coil's behavior through configuration vulnerabilities. [HIGH-RISK]

This critical node highlights vulnerabilities arising from how the application uses Coil, rather than Coil itself. * Insecure URL Handling by Application [HIGH-RISK] [CRITICAL]: * Attack Vector: Exploiting vulnerabilities in application code that handles image URLs before passing them to Coil (e.g., SSRF, lack of sanitization). * Likelihood: Medium (common web application vulnerabilities) * Impact: Medium to High (SSRF, malicious image loading, broader compromise) * Effort: Low to Medium * Skill Level: Medium * Detection Difficulty: Medium * Related Actions: * Identify application code that handles image URLs before passing them to Coil. [HIGH-RISK] * Exploit vulnerabilities in URL handling (e.g., lack of sanitization, SSRF). [HIGH-RISK] * Force Coil to load images from unintended or malicious sources due to application-level flaws. [HIGH-RISK] * Lack of Input Validation on Image URLs [HIGH-RISK] [CRITICAL]: * Attack Vector: Providing malicious URLs as user input due to missing or weak input validation, leading to Coil loading unintended content. * Likelihood: High (if input validation is missing) * Impact: Medium to High (Malicious image loading, various attacks) * Effort: Low * Skill Level: Low * Detection Difficulty: Medium * Related Actions: * Provide malicious or unexpected URLs as input to application features using Coil. [HIGH-RISK] * Trigger vulnerabilities through unexpected URL inputs. [HIGH-RISK]
