PLATFORMS ONLY

APAR status

Error description

Product: TKLM V1 DISTRIBUTED PLATFORMS

Description:

A password security vulnerability exists on Tivoli Key Lifecycle
Manager V1. This vulnerability applies to the AIX, Linux,
Solaris, and Windows platforms.

Local fix

Level 3 to update

Problem summary

Tivoli Key Lifecycle Manager V1.0 provides an Administrator
Userid, TKLMAdmin, that authorizes  Administrators to view and
use the Tivoli Key Lifecycle Manager interface.  After
successfully installing Tivoli Key Lifecycle Manager, the
documentation states that the Administrator password must be
changed.  If you have not reset or changed this password after
installation, the potential exists for an
unauthorized user to gain access to your system.

If the password has been changed, the vulnerability has been
mitigated.  If the password has not been changed, it is
recommended that you change it immediately.  Follow the steps
below to change the TKLMAdmin password.

As the Administrator of the system where Tivoli Key Lifecycle
Manager is running:

 1.  First, back up the
TIP_HOME/profiles/TIPProfile/config/cells/TIPCell/fileRegistry.x
ml file. Changing the value of the password changes this
registry file.

 2. Change the password. (newpassword' in commands below refers
to the new password selected for future use)  Take these steps:

   Windows systems
    a.  Start a wsadmin session using the Jython syntax. For
example, type:
           TIP_HOME/bin/wsadmin -conntype none -profileName
TIPProfile
                                         -lang jython
    b.  Reset the password for the tklmadmin user ID:
     wsadmin>print AdminTask.changeFileRegistryAccountPassword
       ('-userId tklmadmin -password newpassword')
    c  Save the change and exit:
     wsadmin>print AdminConfig.save()
     wsadmin>exit

   Systems such as Linux or AIX
    a.  Start a wsadmin session using the Jython syntax. For
example, type:
     TIP_HOME/bin/wsadmin.sh -conntype none -profileName

TIPProfile  -lang jython
    b.  Reset the password for the tklmadmin user ID:
     wsadmin>print AdminTask.changeFileRegistryAccountPassword
       ('-userId tklmadmin -password newpassword')
    c.  Save the change and exit:
     wsadmin>print AdminConfig.save()
     wsadmin>exit


 3.  Stop and then start the server. See Starting and stopping
the Tivoli Key Lifecycle Manager            server on
distributed systems in TKLM Installation and Configuration guide
(section titled post-installation steps) for details.

 4.  Verify that you can log in as the specified administrator
using the new password.


IBM has also made a fix available, when installed, requires this
password to be changed.  That fix can be found at Fix Central
