Summary
Security vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenSSL that were reported
on June 5, 2014 by the OpenSSL Project.
Vulnerability Details
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3470
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the
implementation of anonymous ECDH ciphersuites. A remote attacker could
exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/93589 for the

Affected Products and Versions
IBM DB2 Advanced Copy Services included in IBM DB2 and DB2 Connect V10.1
and V10.5 editions listed below and running on AIX and Linux are affected.
IBM DB2 Express Edition
IBM DB2 Workgroup Server Edition
IBM DB2 Enterprise Server Edition
IBM DB2 Connect Application Server Edition
IBM DB2 Connect Application Server Advanced Edition
IBM DB2 Connect Enterprise Edition
IBM DB2 Connect Unlimited Edition for System i
IBM DB2 Connect Unlimited Edition for System z
IBM DB2 Connect Unlimited Advanced Edition for System z
IBM DB2 10.1 pureScale Feature
IBM DB2 10.5 Advanced Enterprise Server Edition
IBM DB2 10.5 Advanced Workgroup Server Edition
IBM DB2 10.5 Developer Edition for Linux, Unix and Windows
NOTE: The DB2 Connect products mentioned are affected only if a local
database has been created.
Only users of DB2 Advanced Copy Services (snapshot backup) are affected
by this vulnerability. IBM DB2 includes a restricted version of IBM
Tivoli Flash Copy Manager (FCM v3.2). FCM v 3.2 is affected by this
vulnerability. IBM DB2 Advanced Copy Services in conjunction with IBM
Tivoli FCM 3.2, on all current fix packs of IBM DB2 V10.1 and V10.5,
are affected. AIX installations of DB2 may have this package installed by
default, though it may not be in use on the system.
Remediation/Fixes
The recommended solution is to apply the appropriate fix for this
vulnerability.
FIX:
All DB2 users are recommended to remove the restricted version of IBM
Tivoli Flash Copy Manager (FCM) v3.2 located in the ~/sqllib/acs folder
to avoid accidental use in the future.
If you use DB2 Advanced Copy Services (snapshot backup) with the restricted
version of FCM included with DB2, then obtain the updated and remediated
restricted version of FCM (v.4 1) from Passport Advantage. Note: The fix
is only available for FCM v4.1. The updated package allow users to upgrade
their restricted FCM v3.2 to restricted FCM v4.1. This updated FCM package
is located with IBM DB2 v10.5 FP4 but is available to all DB2 customers.
Package names:
Linux: DB2ACS_4102_linuxx86_64.tar.gz
AIX: DB2ACS_4102_aixpowerpc.tar.gz
These packages can be used with both IBM DB2 v10.1 and IBM DB2 v10.5 on any
fix pack. Remove the contents of the ~/sqllib/acs folder before installing
the above packages.
For installation instructions, please follow the documentation provided
within the IBM DB2 information center:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPGG_10.1.0/com.ibm.db2.luw.admin.ha.doc/doc/c0053160.html
An alternative to applying the restricted FCM v4.1 is to upgrade to a full
version of FCM v4.1. Additional information on upgrading to IBM Tivoli
Flash Copy Manager v4.1 can be found here.

Security Bulletin
Summary
IBM DB2 contains a vulnerability in which multiple ALTER TABLE statements
may cause the DB2 server to terminate abnormally.
Vulnerability Details
CVE ID: CVE-2014-6210
DESCRIPTION:
IBM DB2 contains a denial of service vulnerability. A remote, authenticated
DB2 user could exploit this vulnerability by issuing multiple ALTER TABLE
statements on the same column. This may cause DB2 server to terminate
abnormally. To exploit the vulnerability, the malicious user needs to
have valid security credentials to connect to DB2 and the authorization
associated with the authorization ID of the connection would need to
match one of the authorization scenarios listed below. Note that these
authorities or privileges could be obtained by membership in a group or
by assignment of certain role.
1) CONTROL or ALTER privilege on a table
The user would need either CONTROL or ALTER privilege on a table to execute
the ALTER TABLE statement. Customer could consult the SYSCAT.TABAUTH table to
determine the users, roles, and groups that have CONTROL privilege or ALTER
privilege on a table. Furthermore, the owner of a table has implicit control
privilege and the DBADM authority has implicit control privilege on all
tables. Customer could look up owner of a table from the SYSCAT.TABLES table.
2) ALTERIN privilege on any schema that contains a table
User with this privilege could execute ALTER TABLE statement on any table
in the schema. Customer could consult the SYSCAT.SCHEMAAUTH table to check
for users, roles, and groups with this privilege. Also, customer could
check the SYSCAT.TABLES for existence of tables in the schema.
3) CREATETAB authority on a database and USAGE privilege on at least one
table space
With this authority, the user could create a table and then execute ALTER
TABLE statement on that table. Customer could lookup the SYSCAT.DBAUTH
table to find out users, roles, and groups with CREATETAB authority and
check the SYSCAT.TBSPACEAUTH table for users, roles, and groups with USAGE
privileges on table spaces.
