Summary

SSLv3 contains a vulnerability that has been referred to as the Padding Oracle
On Downgraded Legacy Encryption (POODLE) attack. SSLv3 is enabled in Identity
Insight.

Vulnerability Details

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

Identity Insight 8.1 and 8.0

Remediation/Fixes

None

Workarounds and Mitigations

SSLv3 should be disabled on WebSphere Application Server that is deployed with
Identity Insight to remove the POODLE vulnerability. Settings below will turn
off TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 which are vulnerable. This mitigation will be replaced
by a WebSphere fix when it is available.

Server configuration file:

The SSL protocol is set in the sslProtocol variable in the security.xml file.
Edit the security.xml file and replace the reference to 'SSL_TLS' with 'TLS' 
for the sslProtocol setting. This needs to be done for each security.xml file
in the configuration.

Client configuration files:

The SSL protocol is set with the com.ibm.ssl.protocol property in the 
ssl.client.props file. Edit the ssl.client.props file and set the 
com.ibm.ssl.protocol value to TLS (was SSL_TLS). This needs to be done for 
each ssl.client.props file in the configuration.

IBM recommends that you review your entire environment to identify areas that
enable the SSLv3 protocol and take appropriate mitigation and remediation 
actions. The most immediate mitigation action that can be taken is disabling 
SSLv3.
