A Year in Review 2022: 100 vulnerabilities you should prioritize

2023-02-02
CyberSec

In this blog post we will walk you through the most notable, detected and widely exploited vulnerabilities of 2022

In this article we present the analysis of one hundred (100) vulnerabilities that you should keep an eye on and prioritize them according to your environment. We used PRIOⁿ Knowledge Base for our research. PRIOⁿ Knowledge Base (PRIOⁿ KB) is an online SaaS platform that enables the triaging of publicly disclosed vulnerabilities from the Common Vulnerability Exposure (CVE) program. The main purpose of the PRIOⁿ KB platform is to assist users to analyze, validate and prioritize vulnerabilities. The scope of this research was to identify, classify and analyze vulnerabilities from the previous year (2022) with the following characteristics:

Vulnerabilities that were zero-day (detected and disclosed to the public)
Vulnerabilities that can be found in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog (CVE-2022-*)
Vulnerabilities that were (are) exploited in the wild

Disclosed vulnerabilities distribution by vendors

During our research we found thirty five (35) vendors/products affected by vulnerabilities with the aforementioned characteristics. The following graph shows that ~23% of the total disclosed vulnerabilities were reported in Microsoft products. The two closest ones were reported in Google and Apple products with ~9% each.

Disclosed vulnerabilities over months

On this graph we can see the disclosed vulnerabilities per month. The most busy months for vulnerabilities seem to be March, April, August and September.

Vulnerability Types

The following graph shows the types of the vulnerabilities under examination. PRIOⁿ core engine extracts the vulnerability types from the CVE description using NLP predictive models. We identified that 33% of the vulnerability types were predicted as Privilege Escalation (~17%) and Remote Code Execution (~16%) respectively.

Additionally, many vulnerabilities can be categorized as memory corruption vulnerabilities (superset), such as Buffer/Heap Overflows, Use Afrer Free, Type confusion etc. In Blackhat (2010) conference a research paper/presentation Memory Corruption Attacks The (almost) Complete History by Thinkst Applied Research, was presented. At that time, memory corruption vulnerabilities monopolized the headlines in the security research community for the past 2 decades, now it’s almost 3 and a half decades. It’s a strong indication that this kind of vulnerabilities, a.k.a memory corruption, will exist for a long time. Other remaining vulnerabilities can be categorized as design or logic flaws including Authentication Bypass, Default Installation etc. Identifying the vulnerability type is very useful in terms of prioritization as not all vulnerability types are equal.

Exploitability

The lowest hanging fruit is exploitability. PRIOⁿ data shows that public exploits (free or paid) can be found, at least, for the half of the vulnerabilities under examination.

During the enrichment and analysis of the vulnerabilities under examination we gathered information about exploit code. The following graph shows the total number of exploits by source.

The above graph shows that security researchers are doing their best to disclose exploits to the public. The above graph shows that ~67% of the total exploits were found in various Github repositories and Rapid7 Metasploit® respectively. The exposure of exploitation code to the public could be very helpful for the overall security community, as security researchers are in the position to study various exploitation methods and on top of that to build detection/prevention mechanisms. On the other hand, threat actors, with different motivations, have access to malicious code that it can be exploited to attack infrastructure, applications etc.

Addressing vulnerabilities with existing exploit code, either free or paid, should be a high priority for immediate remediation actions. It is very useful to embed this intelligence in your vulnerability management program as you are able to prioritize identified vulnerabilities in a more granular way.

Cyber Threat Intelligence

During our research, we identified that 33% of the total vulnerabilities (100) have been weaponized by threat actors and have been used in hacking activities against various countries and industries. With this kind of information, organizations are able to develop a sense about threat actor groups/vulnerabilities which are relevant to their industries.

The following table contains a list of the affected vendors, the CVE IDs, the threat actors, the potential victim countries and the potentially affected industries.

Taxonomies

PRIOⁿ ML predictive models map certain cyber security taxonomies, such as MITRE taxonomies, with CVEs. Under the following sections, we present our analysis for MITRE CAPEC™ and MITRE ATT&CK®. Both taxonomies describe threat actor behaviors. CAPEC™ describes the exploitation of a software vulnerability and provides information on how to secure a software vulnerability. On the other hand, MITRE ATT&CK® describes the behavior of adversaries TTPs in different attack stages with focus on how to mitigate and detect those behaviors. Attack patterns provided by CAPEC™ can be a part of MITRE ATT&CK® techniques or sub-techniques. Both taxonomies can assist defenders with the prioritization of the identified vulnerabilities in their environment.

Common Attack Pattern Enumerations and Classifications (CAPEC™)

PRIOⁿ ML predictive models map CVEs to relevant CAPEC known attack patterns. A CAPEC attack pattern is a description, in an abstract way, of a common software exploitation method, for instance Code Injection or SQL Injection. The following graph shows that the 70% of the identified known attack patterns predicted as Code Injection (CAPEC-242), Privilege Escalation (CAPEC-233) and OS Command Injection (CAPEC-88) respectively.

MITRE ATT&CK®

PRIOⁿ ML predictive models map CVEs to relevant techniques from the MITRE ATT&CK® matrix. The following graph shows all the techniques that were mapped, automatically, during this research. The 50% of the total count of MITRE ATT&CK® techniques were predicted and mapped as T1203-Exploitation for client execution, T1068-Exploitation for privilege escalation and T1210-Exploitation for remote services respectively.

By linking and mapping MITRE ATT&CK® techniques to CVEs, PRIOⁿ engine provides risk insights to defenders. The defender can understand in which attack stage (e.g. cyber kill chain) the adversary may use the vulnerability and plan accordingly. Information can be used to: deploy and test defense control capabilities for prevention purposes, create threat hunting scenarios for daily threat hunting activities, enrich internal threat intelligence and knowledge base or to simulate adversary exercises. Finally, defenders can group techniques (by tactics) to prioritize vulnerabilities relevant to their environment.

Reconnaissance	Resource Development	Initial Access	Execution	Persistence	Privilege Escalation	Defense Evasion	Credential Access	Discovery	Lateral Movement	Collection	Command and Control	Exfiltration	Impact
T1589 - Gather Victim Identity Information	T1608 - Stage Capabilities	T1190-Exploit Public Facing Application T1133-External Remote Services	T1203-Exploitation for Client Execution T1059-Command & Scripting Interpreter T1204.001-Malicious Link	T1133-External Remote Services	T1068-Exploitation for Privilege Escalation	T1497-Virtualization/Sandbox Evasion T1221-Template Injection T1036-Masquarading T1027.006-HTML Smuggling	T1552-Unsecured Credentials	T1083-File and Directory Discovery T1497-Virtualization/Sandbox Evasion	T1210-Exploitation for Remote Services				T1499-Endpoint Denial of Serices

Conclusion

In this blog we presented our security research and analysis of one hundred (100) vulnerabilities for the year 2022. Our analysis was done via the PRIOⁿ Knowledge Base platform. It is clear that security researchers are doing their best to provide information to the public related to vulnerabilities (zero day or known exploited) exploited in the wild. PRIOⁿ Knowledge Base, collects, enriches and analyses publicly disclosed vulnerabilities from the CVE program. It provides actionable data to cyber security practitioners to ensure that the most severe and dangerous vulnerabilities are prioritized. Each vulnerability is assigned a risk score according to its unique characteristics. If you have any questions/comments/suggestions/corrections regarding our analysis, feel free to contact us.
