Control Strategy SuspendVulnerableProcess.Implementation

URI: CSG-SuspendVulnerableProcess-Implementation-Runtime

Package: Network

< prev | next >

Description: Process Process has been disabled by the manager of its host HostManager to prevent a known vulnerability being exploited by an attacker. This strategy represents activation of a contingency plan at runtime, and can be selected to discover what effect this would have on risk levels, allowing this to be used for decision support calculations. To activate it at runtime, signal user HostManager who is responsible for managing device Host where Process is running. The Disabled Process control should be deselected only when the process has been restarted.

Blocked Threats (8)

DS.A.HPsACDAdDS.4

Attacker exploit at Process to delete Data: the attacker exploits a vulnerability in process Process and is able to delete or otherwise disable access to the stored copy of Data on its host device Host.

DS.Auth.HPsACd-pDS-V.4

Attacker exploit at service Process alters Data stored on Host: the attacker exploits a vulnerability in process Process and is able to alter the stored copy of Data on its host device Host.

DS.Auth.HPsACdpDS-V.4

Attacker exploit at Process alters output Data stored on Host: the attacker exploits a vulnerability in process Process and is able to alter the stored copy of Data updated by the process on its host device Host.

DS.C.HPsACr-pDS-V.4

Attacker exploit at Process accesses Data: the attacker is able to exploit a vulnerability in process Process and gains access to the stored copy of Data on device Host which is served by the process.

DS.C.HPsACrpDS-V.4

Attacker exploit at Process accesses its input Data: the attacker is able to exploit a vulnerability in process Process, gaining access to the stored copy of Data used by the process on its host device Host.

H.M.HmACPAC.4

Attacker exploit at Process in location Space gains admin rights at Host: the attacker exploits a vulnerability in the process Process when its host Host is in Space, and is able to escalate privileges to gain admin rights on Host in that context.

P.A.HP-iT.4

Attacker exploit disables Process: the attacker exploits a vulnerability in the process Process and is able to crash it or otherwise prevent access to it.

P.L.HPAC.4

Attacker exploit takes control of Process in Space: the attacker exploits a vulnerability in process Process when its host Host is located in Space, giving them control of the process behaviour and access to its privileges on Host when in that location.
