Rule: 

--
Sid: 327

-- 

Summary: 
This event is generated when a remote command execution exploit against a finger daemon is attempted.

-- 

Impact: 
Serious. The attacker may be presented with the opportunity to run a command of his choice on the target UNIX system

--
Detailed Information:
This event is generated when a specific attack against a vulnerable version of the finger daemon is detected. 

The Finger daemon is used to provide information about users on a UNIX system. It used to be installed and enabled by default on most UNIX/Linux systems. The attack may allow an attacker to execute a command remotely on a target system with the privileges of the user running the "finger" daemon. The user is usually defined in the /etc/inetd.conf file and is commonly designated as "nobody".

--
Attack Scenarios: 
An attacker may try the attack and then executes a command to download a backdoor to the target system. He then connects to the system and may attempt to escalate his privileges by exploiting a local SUID application to gain "root" privileges.

-- 

Ease of Attack: 
Simple, no exploit software is required, just a specially formatted finger query

-- 

False Positives: 
None Known

--
False Negatives: 
None Known

-- 

Corrective Action: 
Disable the finger daemon or limit the addresses that can access the service via firewall or TCP wrappers.
