Vulnerability Data
AIDE is an advanced intrusion detection environment. Prior to version 0.19.2, there is an improper output neutralization vulnerability in AIDE. An attacker can craft a malicious filename by including terminal escape sequences to hide the addition or removal of the…

file from the report and/or tamper with the log output. A local user might exploit this to bypass the AIDE detection of malicious files. Additionally the output of extended attribute key names and symbolic links targets are also not properly neutralized. This issue has been patched in version 0.19.2. A workaround involves configuring AIDE to write the report output to a regular file, redirecting stdout to a regular file, or redirecting the log output written to stderr to a regular file.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover missing or incorrect output neutralization when log messages are constructed from untrusted input.
Input validation reduces the chance that specially crafted data reaches log-message construction routines.

Security testing can detect log injection flaws but does not prevent them at the source.
Logging control directly requires proper log generation and handling, which mitigates improper output neutralization.
Monitoring activities rely on trustworthy logs but do not ensure log message integrity.
Secure SDLC includes coding standards that reduce log-related weaknesses but does not specifically address logging.
Secure coding practices mandate input validation and output encoding, directly preventing log injection.
