Threat P.A.HP-iT.6

URI: P.A.HP-iT.6

Package: Network

< prev | next >

Description: Effect of overload at low priority process Process: the priority of process Process may be reduced to prevent it from overloading its host Host, but in that case Process may become unavailable even if Host is not.

Threat Type: Secondary Threat

Matching Pattern:

P.A.HP-iT.6
MP-HP-iT

Finds a non-trivial Process and its Host, and optionally the host manager and the interactive user of the process.

P.A.HP-iT.6
DB.O.DSPDFVDB.6.2

Data service Process overloaded by decryption of data Data for Service: since data Data stored on Host is encrypted with keys from Vault, query processing by Service will require decryption of a large volume of data. The resulting computational overhead may overload the data server Process.

DB.O.DSPDF-VDB.6.2

Data service Process overloaded by decryption of data Data for Service: since data Data stored on Host is encrypted, query processing by Service will require decryption of a large volume of data. The resulting computational overhead may overload the data server Process.
P.A.HP-iT.6
P.O.DA-VPpDA.6

Encrypted processing of input Data by Process causes overload: if Process performs calculations in the encrypted domain, the performance overhead will be significant.
P.A.HP-iT.6
P.O.PpDADA-V.6

Encrypted processing of input Data by Process causes overload: if Process performs calculations in the encrypted domain, the performance overhead will be significant.
P.A.HP-iT.6
P.O.HP-iT.5

Software bug overloads Process: a software bug in process Process causes it to become overlaoded.
P.A.HP-iT.6
P.O.DDoS.3

Distributed DoS attack on service Process from subnet LogicalSubnet: an attacker with control over multiple vulnerable systems connected to LogicalSubnet can use them to send excessive messages via a privileged network paths through firewalls and overload service Process. The best defence is to arrange with your ISP to manage and restrict the traffic sent from the Internet (check threat causes for an unrestricted network interface).
P.A.HP-iT.6
P.O.DoS.3

DoS attack on service Process from subnet LogicalSubnet: an attacker with access to LogicalSubnetcan exploit a privileged network path through firewalls allowing access to service Process, sending too many messages and overloading Process. The best defence is to manage and restrict the traffic sent to the service at one of the inbound network interfaces (check threat causes for unrestricted network interfaces).
