Attack Tree Analysis for matthewyork/datetools

Objective: Compromise Application Using datetools

Attack Tree Visualization

High-Risk Attack Sub-Tree for Application Using datetools

Attack Goal: Compromise Application Using datetools

High-Risk Sub-Tree:

  • [AND] Exploit Vulnerabilities Introduced by datetools Usage [CRITICAL NODE]
    • [OR] 1. Input Manipulation via Date/Time Parameters [HIGH-RISK PATH] [CRITICAL NODE]
      • [AND] 1.1. Malicious Date String Input [HIGH-RISK PATH] [CRITICAL NODE]
        • 1.1.1. Inject Invalid Date Format [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • 1.1.2. Inject Ambiguous Date Format [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • 1.1.3. Inject Date String Leading to Extreme Date/Time Values [HIGH-RISK PATH]
      • [AND] 1.2. Time Zone Manipulation (if application and datetools handle time zones) [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • 1.2.1. Time Zone Injection/Override [HIGH-RISK PATH]
    • [OR] 2. Logic Exploitation of Date/Time Handling
      • [AND] 2.3. Exploiting Date/Time Related Business Logic Flaws [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • 2.3.1. Manipulating Dates to Access Expired Content/Features [HIGH-RISK PATH]

Attack Tree Path: 1. [AND] Exploit Vulnerabilities Introduced by datetools Usage [CRITICAL NODE]

  • Description: This is the overarching critical node. The attacker aims to exploit any vulnerability stemming from the application's use of the datetools library. Success here means compromising the application through weaknesses related to date and time handling.

Attack Tree Path: 2. [OR] 1. Input Manipulation via Date/Time Parameters [HIGH-RISK PATH] [CRITICAL NODE]

  • Description: This is a high-risk path and critical node focusing on manipulating date and time inputs provided to the application. Attackers attempt to inject malicious or unexpected date/time values to trigger vulnerabilities.
  • Attack Vectors:
    • [AND] 1.1. Malicious Date String Input [HIGH-RISK PATH] [CRITICAL NODE]
      • Description: Injecting crafted date strings to exploit parsing or processing flaws.
      • 1.1.1. Inject Invalid Date Format [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • Impact: Low-Medium (Application Error, DoS if not handled, Logic Bypass if error handling flawed)
        • Likelihood: High
        • Effort: Low
        • Skill Level: Low
        • Detection Difficulty: Low-Medium
      • 1.1.2. Inject Ambiguous Date Format [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • Impact: Medium (Incorrect Date Parsing, Logic Bypass, Data Manipulation)
        • Likelihood: Medium
        • Effort: Low-Medium
        • Skill Level: Low-Medium
        • Detection Difficulty: Medium
      • 1.1.3. Inject Date String Leading to Extreme Date/Time Values [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • Impact: Medium-High (Integer Overflow/Underflow, DoS, Logic Errors)
        • Likelihood: Medium
        • Effort: Low
        • Skill Level: Low
        • Detection Difficulty: Medium
    • [AND] 1.2. Time Zone Manipulation (if application and datetools handle time zones) [HIGH-RISK PATH]
      • Description: Manipulating time zone parameters to cause logic errors or bypass security checks.
      • 1.2.1. Time Zone Injection/Override [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • Impact: Medium-High (Logic Bypass, Time-based access control, scheduling, Data Manipulation)
        • Likelihood: Medium
        • Effort: Medium
        • Skill Level: Medium
        • Detection Difficulty: Medium

Attack Tree Path: 3. [OR] 2. Logic Exploitation of Date/Time Handling

  • Description: This path focuses on exploiting flaws in the application's logic related to how it handles date and time, even if the datetools library itself is functioning as expected.
    • [AND] 2.3. Exploiting Date/Time Related Business Logic Flaws [HIGH-RISK PATH]
      • Description: Targeting vulnerabilities in the application's business logic that relies on date and time, such as access control or feature expiration.
      • 2.3.1. Manipulating Dates to Access Expired Content/Features [HIGH-RISK PATH]
        • Impact: Medium (Logic Bypass, Unauthorized Access)
        • Likelihood: Medium-High
        • Effort: Low
        • Skill Level: Low
        • Detection Difficulty: Medium
