Attackers are constantly looking for vulnerabilities in systems and applications. The Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit can enable several mechanisms, such as Data Execution Prevention (DEP), Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), and Structured Exception Handler Overwrite Protection (SEHOP) on the system and applications adding additional levels of protection.
This is applicable to unclassified systems, for other systems this is NA. If EMET has not been installed and DEP and SEHOP are configured as required in V-68843 and V-68847, this is NA. If the following registry values do not exist or are not configured as specified, this is a finding: Registry Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Registry Path: \SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\EMET\Defaults\ Value Type: REG_SZ (for each Value below) Values noted as "Blank" are empty in the registry. Value Name: *\Adobe\*\Reader\AcroRd32.exe Value: +EAF+ eaf_modules:AcroRd32.dll;Acrofx32.dll;AcroForm.api Value Name: *\Adobe\Acrobat*\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe Value: +EAF+ eaf_modules:AcroRd32.dll;Acrofx32.dll;AcroForm.api Value Name: *\Java\jre*\bin\java.exe Value: -HeapSpray Value Name: *\Java\jre*\bin\javaw.exe Value: -HeapSpray Value Name: *\Java\jre*\bin\javaws.exe Value: -HeapSpray Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\EXCEL.EXE Value: +ASR asr_modules:flash*.ocx Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\INFOPATH.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\LYNC.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\MSACCESS.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\MSPUB.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\OIS.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\OUTLOOK.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\POWERPNT.EXE Value: +ASR asr_modules:flash*.ocx Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\PPTVIEW.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\VISIO.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\VPREVIEW.EXE Value: "Blank" Value Name: *\OFFICE1*\WINWORD.EXE Value: +ASR asr_modules:flash*.ocx Value Name: *\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe Value: "Blank" Due to a change in the registry structure for EMET 5.5, if the system has a previous version of EMET installed and configured, this setting needs to be set to "Not Configured" prior to the upgrade to EMET 5.5, and the new administrative template files copied to the appropriate area. The setting can then be re-enabled.
Configure the policy value for Computer Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> Windows Components >> EMET >> "Default Protections for Recommended Software" to "Enabled". Note: The Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit must be installed on the system and the administrative template files added to make this setting available. Due to a change in the registry structure for EMET 5.5, if the system has a previous version of EMET installed and configured, this setting needs to be set to "Not Configured" prior to the upgrade to EMET 5.5, and the new administrative template files copied to the appropriate area. The setting can then be re-enabled.
Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS
class id, if you view the page source) point to
globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the
link location and paste anywhere you need to talk
unambiguously about these things.
You can obtain data about documents and items in other
formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept:
text/turtle or
