Online detection of command injection attacks in computerized systems
The patent application (Publication Number: US20230376587A1) describes a method for online detection of command injection attacks in a computerized system. The method involves identifying potential input provisioning events that include a command separator and an executable product received from a network. Upon detecting such inputs, a suspicious record event is recorded. Subsequently, during potential execution events, if an execution command correlates with the suspicious record event, it is flagged as a command injection attack. Remedial actions are then taken to prevent the execution of the flagged command injection attack.
Furthermore, the method includes various additional features such as reporting the attack to a user, preventing the execution of flagged commands, and analyzing the timing correlation between input provisioning and execution events. The system utilizes string manipulation hook functions to analyze input strings and activate triggers based on predetermined conditions. By setting up triggers and periodically analyzing string generation events, the method aims to proactively detect and prevent command injection attacks. The patent also covers a computer program product and a computerized apparatus with processors adapted to perform the steps outlined in the method for detecting and mitigating command injection attacks in real-time within a computerized system.
