Modifying existing services may break\r\nexisting services or may enable services that are disabled/not commonly used.\r\n Relationships\r\nThis table shows the other attack patterns and high level categories that are related to this attack pattern. These\r\nrelationships are defined as ChildOf and ParentOf, and give insight to similar items that may exist at higher and lower levels\r\nof abstraction. In addition, relationships such as CanFollow, PeerOf, and CanAlsoBe are defined to show similar attack\r\npatterns that the user may want to explore.\r\nNature Type\r\nChildOf Standard Attack Pattern - A standard level attack pattern in CAPEC is focused on a specific methodology or technique used in an attack. It\r\nThis table shows the views that this attack pattern belongs to and top level categories within that view.\r\nView Name Top Level Categories\r\nDomains of Attack Software\r\nMechanisms of Attack Inject Unexpected Items\r\n Mitigations\r\nLimit privileges of user accounts so service changes can only be performed by authorized administrators. Also monitor any\r\nservice changes that may occur inadvertently.\r\n Taxonomy Mappings\r\nCAPEC mappings to ATT\u0026CK techniques leverage an inheritance model to streamline and minimize direct\r\nCAPEC/ATT\u0026CK mappings. Inheritance of a mapping is indicated by text stating that the parent CAPEC has relevant\r\nATT\u0026CK mappings. Note that the ATT\u0026CK Enterprise Framework does not use an inheritance model as part of the\r\nmapping to CAPEC.\r\nRelevant to the ATT\u0026CK taxonomy mapping (also see parent)\r\nEntry ID Entry Name\r\n1543 Create or Modify System Process\r\n Content History\r\nSubmissions\r\nSubmission Date Submitter Organization\r\n2015-11-09\r\n(Version 2.7)\r\nCAPEC Content Team The MITRE Corporation\r\nModifications\r\nModification Date Modifier Organization\r\n2019-04-04 CAPEC Content Team The MITRE Corporation\r\nhttps://capec.mitre.org/data/definitions/551.html\r\nPage 1 of 2\n\n(Version 3.1) Updated Related_Weaknesses\r\n2020-07-30\r\n(Version 3.3)\r\nCAPEC Content Team The MITRE Corporation\r\nUpdated Taxonomy_Mappings\r\n2021-06-24\r\n(Version 3.5)\r\nCAPEC Content Team The MITRE Corporation\r\nUpdated Taxonomy_Mappings\r\n2022-09-29\r\n(Version 3.8)\r\nCAPEC Content Team The MITRE Corporation\r\nUpdated Taxonomy_Mappings\r\nMore information is available — Please select a different filter.\r\nSource: https://capec.mitre.org/data/definitions/551.html\r\nhttps://capec.mitre.org/data/definitions/551.html\r\nPage 2 of 2",
