The Apache Axis library is included with IBM Cognos Metrics Manager. IBM Cognos Metrics Manager has addressed the vulnerability. Vulnerability Details CVEID: CVE-2012-5784 DESCRIPTION: Apache Axis 1.4, as used in multiple products, could allow a remote attacker to conduct spoofing attacks, caused by the failure to verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) field of the X.509 certificate. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using man-in-the-middle techniques to spoof an SSL server and launch further attacks against a vulnerable target.

OpenSSL is used by IBM Cognos Metrics Manager. IBM Cognos Metrics Manager has addressed the applicable CVEs. Vulnerability Details CVEID: 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 CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/97036 for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P) CVEID: CVE-2014-3513 DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a memory leak in the DTLS Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP) extension parsing code. By sending multiple specially-crafted handshake messages, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to exhaust all available memory of an SSL/TLS or DTLS server. CVSS Base Score: 5 CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/97035 for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P) CVEID: 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 the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N) Affected Products and Versions IBM Cognos Metrics Manager 10.2.1 IBM Cognos Metrics Manager 10.2 IBM Cognos Metrics Manager 10.1.1 IBM Cognos Metrics Manager 10.1 Remediation/Fixes The recommended solution is to apply the fix in one of the IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 10.x interim fixes listed as soon as practical.
