Security Bulletin

Summary

SSLv3 contains a vulnerability that has been referred to as the
Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption (POODLE) attack. SSLv3
is enabled in IBM Security Virtual Server Protection for VMware. Also,
OpenSSL vulnerabilities were disclosed on October 15, 2014 by the OpenSSL
Project. OpenSSL is used by IBM Security Virtual Server Protection for
VMware. IBM Security Virtual Server Protection for VMware has addressed
the applicable CVEs.

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)

CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3567

DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by
a memory leak when handling failed session ticket integrity checks. By
sending an overly large number of invalid session tickets, an attacker
could exploit this vulnerability to exhaust all available memory of an
SSL/TLS or DTLS server.

CVSS Base Score: 5.0
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/97036 for
more information
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)

CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3568

DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker bypass security
restrictions. When configured with "no-ssl3" as a build option, servers
could accept and complete a SSL 3.0 handshake. An attacker could exploit
this vulnerability to perform unauthorized actions.

CVSS Base Score: 2.6
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/97037 for
