Vulnerability Data

Improper Handling of Length Parameter Inconsistency (CWE-130) vulnerability exists in TTSSH2 plugin of Tera Term provided by TeraTerm Project. When Tera Term attempts to establish an SSH connection to a server set up by an attacker, out-of-bounds read/write may occur.…

more

As a result, the contents of adjacent memory regions may be transmitted to the server, and Tera Term may behave unexpected or terminate abnormally.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1005 Data from Local System Collection
Adversaries may search local system sources, such as file systems, configuration files, local databases, virtual machine files, or process memory, to find files of interest and sensitive data prior to Exfiltration.
T1041 Exfiltration Over C2 Channel Exfiltration
Adversaries may steal data by exfiltrating it over an existing command and control channel.
Why these techniques?

OOB read in SSH client directly enables local memory contents to be sent to attacker-controlled server over the connection channel.

detects

Security testing in development can detect length-inconsistency vulnerabilities before deployment.

prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and length checks that directly address inconsistent length fields.

prevents

Application security requirements include explicit rules for handling message lengths and data structures.

prevents

Secure architecture principles require robust parsing and bounds checking to prevent length-related flaws.

prevents

Secure coding standards directly prohibit improper length handling and enforce defensive parsing practices.
