Input validation and representation problems ares caused by metacharacters, alternate encodings and numeric representations. Security problems result from trusting input. The issues include: "Buffer Overflows," "Cross-Site Scripting" attacks, "SQL Injection," and many others.

Attackers could pass specially crafted serialized strings to a vulnerable unserialize() call, resulting in an arbitrary PHP object(s) injection into the application scope. The severity of this vulnerability depends on the classes available in the application scope. Classes implementing PHP magic method such as __wakeup or __destruct will be interesting for the attackers since they will be able to execute the code within these methods.__destruct() magic method and executing a system command defined as a class property. There is also an insecure call to unserialize() with user-supplied data.
...
class SomeAvailableClass {
public $command=null;
public function __destruct() {
system($this->command);
}
}
...
$user = unserialize($_GET['user']);
...
Example 1, the application may be expecting a serialized User object but an attacker may actually provide a serialized version of SomeAvailableClass with a predefined value for its command property:
GET REQUEST: http://server/page.php?user=O:18:"SomeAvailableClass":1:{s:7:"command";s:8:"uname -a";}
$user object and then it will execute the command provided by the attacker.unserialize() is being called using a technique known as "Property Oriented Programming", which was introduced by Stefan Esser during BlackHat 2010 conference. This technique allows an attacker to reuse existing code to craft its own payload.YAML.load(). Attackers could pass specially crafted serialized strings to a vulnerable YAML.load() call, resulting in arbitrary Ruby objects being injected into the program, as long as the class is loaded into the application at the time of deserialization. This may open up a whole heap of various attack opportunities, such as bypassing validation logic to find cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, allow SQL injection through what appear to be hardcoded values, or even full code execution.YAML.load() with user-supplied data.
...
class Transaction
attr_accessor :id
def initialize(num=nil)
@id = num.is_a?(Numeric) ? num : nil
end
def print_details
unless @id.nil?
print $conn.query("SELECT * FROM transactions WHERE id=#{@id}")
end
end
end
...
user = YAML.load(params[:user]);
user.print_details
...
Example 1, the application may be expecting a serialized User object, which also happens to have a function called print_details, but an attacker may actually provide a serialized version of a Transaction object with a predefined value for its @id attribute. A request such as the following can thus allow bypassing of the validation check that attempts to make sure @id is a numeric value
GET REQUEST: http://server/page?user=!ruby%2Fobject%3ATransaction%0Aid%3A4%20or%205%3D5%0A
user parameter is assigned !ruby/object:Transaction\nid:4 or 5=5\n.Transaction, setting @id to "4 or 5=5". When the developer believes they will be calling User#print_details(), they will now be calling Transaction#print_details(), and Ruby's string interpolation will mean the SQL query will be changed to execute the query: SELECT * FROM transactions WHERE id=4 or 5=5. Due to the extra clause that was added, the query evaluates to true and will return everything within the transactions table instead of the single row that was intended from the developer.YAML.load() is being called using a technique known as "Property Oriented Programming", which was introduced by Stefan Esser during BlackHat 2010 conference. This technique allows an attacker to reuse existing code to craft its own payload.Value Stack context. Enabling evaluation of unvalidated expressions against the Value Stack can give an attacker access to modify system variables or execute arbitrary code.

String expression = request.getParameter("input");
Object expr = Ognl.parseExpression(expression);

(#rt = @java.lang.Runtime@getRuntime(),#rt.exec("calc.exe"))
%{expr}) in a Struts tag that evaluates the OGNL expression twice. An attacker in control of the result of the first evaluation may be able to control the expression to be evaluated in the second OGNL evaluation and inject arbitrary OGNL expressions.redirectAction result is known to evaluate its parameters twice. In this case the result of the forced OGNL expression in the actionName parameter may be controlled by an attacker by supplying a redirect request parameter.
...
<action name="index" class="com.acme.MyAction">

<param name="actionName">${#parameters['redirect']}</param>
<param name="namespace">/foo</param>
</result>
</action>
...
%{#parameters['redirect']} expression returning a user-controlled string that will be evaluated as an OGNL expression, allowing the attacker to evaluate arbitrary OGNL expressions.execute(). The ! (bang) character or the method: prefix can be used in the Action URL to invoke any public method in the Action if "Dynamic Method Invocation" is enabled. In Struts 2 version 2.3.20 the mechanism to invoke the alternative method that was previously based on reflection, was substituted to use OGNL instead which allowed attackers to provide malicious OGNL expressions instead of an alternative method name.debug request parameter:console will pop up an OGNL evaluation console allowing developers to evaluate any arbitrary OGNL expression on the server.command will allow the developers to submit arbitrary OGNL expressions to be evaluated using the request parameter expression.xml will dump the parameters, context, session, and value stack as an XML document.browser will dump the parameters, context, session, and value stack in a browseable HTML document.dest request parameter when a user clicks the link.

The combination of memory manipulation and mistaken assumptions about the size or makeup of a piece of data is the root cause of most buffer overflows.memcpy() reads memory from outside the allocated bounds of cArray, which contains MAX elements of type char, while iArray contains MAX elements of type int.Example 2: The following short program uses an untrusted command line argument as the search buffer in a call to
void MemFuncs() {
char array1[MAX];
int array2[MAX];
memcpy(array2, array1, sizeof(array2));
}
memchr() with a constant number of bytes to be analyzed.
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
char* ret = memchr(argv[0], 'x', MAX_PATH);
printf("%s\n", ret);
}
argv[0], by searching the argv[0] data up to a constant number of bytes. However, as the (constant) number of bytes might be larger than the data allocated for argv[0], the search might go on beyond the data allocated for argv[0]. This will be the case when x is not found in argv[0].strncpy(), can cause vulnerabilities when used incorrectly. The combination of memory manipulation and mistaken assumptions about the size or makeup of a piece of data is the root cause of most buffer overflows.char, with the last reference introducing an off-by-one error.

The combination of memory manipulation and mistaken assumptions about the size or makeup of a piece of data is the root cause of most buffer overflows.getInputLength() is less than the size of the destination buffer output. However, because the comparison between len and MAX is signed, if len is negative, it will be become a very large positive number when it is converted to an unsigned argument to memcpy().
