SSLv3 is enabled in Rational Insight, Vulnerability Details CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3566 Description: Product could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a design error when using the SSLv3 protocol. A remote user with the ability to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack could exploit this vulnerability via a POODLE (Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption) attack to decrypt SSL sessions and access the plaintext of encrypted connections. CVSS Base Score: 4.3 CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/97013 for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N) Affected Products and Versions Rational Insight 1.1.1.4 and 1.1.1.5 Remediation/Fixes None Workarounds and Mitigations SSL secured communication occurs between client and server, for example between a Web browser and a Web server on which the Rational Insight is installed and configured. To mitigate this issue and protect against POODLE attack, it is enough to secure either the Web browser or the server (or both). One suggestion is to secure the Web server into which Data Collection Component (DCC) and/or Jazz Reporting Service (JRS) are installed and configured. See the following links for general information on how to disable SSLv3 in Apache Tomcat and IBM WebSphere: IBM WebSphere: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21687173 Apache Tomcat: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1232233 Also reference http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21687762 for additional information specific to the Jazz Team Server that may be used by DCC and/or JRS. IBM recommends that you review your entire environment to identify other areas that enable the SSLv3 protocol and take appropriate mitigation such as disabling SSLv3 and remediation actions.
