Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-1428

Weakness Allowed

Reliance on HTTP instead of HTTPS

Abstraction: Base · Status: Incomplete

The product provides or relies on use of HTTP communications when HTTPS is available.

Mapping guidance

This CWE entry is at the Base level of abstraction, which is a preferred level of abstraction for mapping to the root causes of vulnerabilities.

Carefully read both the name and description to ensure that this mapping is an appropriate fit. Do not try to 'force' a mapping to a lower-level Base/Variant simply to comply with this preferred level of abstraction.

Modes of introduction
Architecture and Design

The product might be designed in a way that assumes that HTTP will be used, e.g., by excluding considerations of encrypted communications between client and server.

Requirements

Product requirements might not include encrypted communications, which could make it easier for designers and developers to choose HTTP.

Implementation

Developers might choose to use unencrypted protocols such as HTTP because they would not require development of additional mechanisms to support encryption, e.g., key or certificate management.

Implementation

When generating content that references web sites such as email messages, ensure that the https:// prefix is included. If a domain name is presented without such a prefix, then clients might automatically treat the link as if it had an "http" prefix. For example, referencing a domain like "mysite.example.com" could cause it to be treated like "http://mysite.example.com", thereby sending unencrypted HTTP requests.

Operation

Designers might assume that the responsibility for encrypted communications might belong to operators and/or network administrators.

Title
Insecure HTTP configuration retrieval in Sogou Input Method allows arbitrary code execution
Summary
Sogou Input Method for Windows contains a vulnerability in the configuration retrieval mechanism of its SGTool.exe component. The application retrieves configuration data over unencrypted HTTP connections, allowing an attacker capable of manipulating network traffic to replace legitimate server responses with malicious configurations. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to instruct SGTool.exe to download attacker-controlled files to arbitrary locations, including paths used by legitimate application components. This can result in arbitrary code execution when the downloaded files are subsequently executed or loaded by the application.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Unlike many other protocols, HTTPS is widely available as a more secure alternative, because it uses encryption. Explicitly require HTTPS or another mechanism that ensures that communication is encrypted [REF-1464].

Mitigation
Implementation

Avoid using "mixed content," i.e., serving a web page over HTTPS in which the page includes elements that use "http:" URLs [REF-1466] [REF-1467]. This is often done for images or other resources that do not seem to have privacy or security implications.

Mitigation
Implementation Operation

Perform "HTTPS forcing," that is, redirecting HTTP requests to HTTPS.

Mitigation
Operation

If the product supports multiple protocols, ensure that encrypted protocols (such as HTTPS) are required, and remove any unencrypted protocols (such as HTTP).
