CAPEC-68: Subvert Code-signing Facilities
ID
CAPEC-68
Typical Severity
Very High
Likelihood Of Attack
Low
Status
Draft
Many languages use code signing facilities to vouch for code's identity and to thus tie code to its assigned privileges within an environment. Subverting this mechanism can be instrumental in an attacker escalating privilege. Any means of subverting the way that a virtual machine enforces code signing classifies for this style of attack.
