Security Bulletin
Summary
Security vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenSSL.
Vulnerability Details
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-0160
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive
information, caused by an error in the TLS/DTLS heartbeat functionality. An
attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose 64k of private memory and
retrieve secret keys. An attacker can repeatedly expose additional 64k chunks
of memory. This vulnerability can be remotely exploited, authentication is not
required and the exploit is not complex. An exploit can only partially affect
the confidentially, but not integrity or availability.
CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/92322
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N)
Warning: We strongly encourage you to take action as soon as possible as
potential implications to your environment may be more serious than indicated
by the CVSS score.
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-0076
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL could allow a local attacker to obtain sensitive
information, caused by an implementation error in ECDSA (Elliptic Curve
Digital Signature Algorithm). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability
using the FLUSH+RELOAD cache side-channel attack to recover ECDSA nonces. This
vulnerability can only be exploited locally, authentication is not required
and the exploit is not complex. An exploit can only partially affect
confidentially, but not integrity or availability.
CVSS Base Score: 2.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/91990
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N)
Affected Products and Versions
SSM 4.0.0 FP1 - P14 and Interim Fix 14-01
SSM 4.0.1 FP1 and earlier
Remediation/Fixes
For Version 4.0.0
- - Apply SSM 4.0.0.14 Interim Fix 02:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=0&uid=isg400001762
For Version 4.0.1
- - Apply SSM 4.0.1.1 Interim Fix 01:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=0&uid=isg400001769
After applying the fix, additional instructions are needed for CVE-2014-0160
1) Replace your SSL Certificates.
Although SSM uses OpenSSL as a client and does not have any certificates, any
other certificates stored on the machine may have been compromised. You need
to revoke existing SSL certificates and reissue new certificates. You need to
be sure not to generate the new certificates using the old private key and
create a new private key (ie using "openssl genrsa") and use that new private
key to create the new certificate signing request (CSR).
2) Reset User Credentials
Users of network facing applications protected by a vulnerable version of
OpenSSL should be forced to reset their passwords and should revoke any
authentication or session related cookies set prior to the time OpenSSL was
upgraded and force the user to re-authenticate. For SSM this includes
community strings and SNMP V3 credentials.
Warning: Your environment may require additional fixes for other products,
including non-IBM products. Please replace the SSL certificates and reset the
user credentials after applying the necessary fixes to your environment.
