CVSS:
Refer to the developerWorks Java Technology Security Alerts for the CVSS base
score of each specific vulnerability.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/alerts/
AFFECTED VERSIONS/PLATFORMS:
Releases of DB2 QMF for Workstation and DB2 QMF for WebSphere currently in
support at the time of this bulletin are affected, including QMF Version 10.1.5
and earlier. The vulnerability affects all currently supported platforms.
REMEDIATION:
The recommended solution for DB2 QMF for Workstation is to apply Fix Pack 6 for
QMF Version 10.1. For DB2 QMF for Workstation Version 9, this issue will be
fixed in Version 9.1.20, which will be available in February 2013.
DB2 QMF for WebSphere uses the JRE version in use by the web application
server. Therefore, see remediation instructions for the web application server in use.
FIX:
For DB2 QMF for Workstation, download and install DB2 QMF Version 10.1.6 from
the IBM Fix Packs for DB2 Query Management Facility website to replace the
affected release. DB2 QMF Version 9.1.20 will be made available on this website
as well.

For DB2 QMF for WebSphere, see above recommended remediation.
WORKAROUND:
To reduce the risk of a successful attack, do not use third-party custom edit
code libraries if you are not sure of their origin until you have applied the
QMF fix packs referenced above.
