These issues were disclosed as part of the IBM Java SDK updates in July 2014. Vulnerability Details The following two advisories are included in the IBM SDK Java Technology Edition and WebSphere eXtreme Scale may be vulnerable to them. CVEID: CVE-2014-4263 DESCRIPTION: An unspecified vulnerability related to the Security component has partial confidentiality impact, partial integrity impact and no availability impact. CVSS Base Score: 4.0 CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/94606 for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N) CVEID: CVE-2014-4244 DESCRIPTION: An unspecified vulnerability related to the Security component has partial confidentiality impact, partial integrity impact and no availability impact. CVSS Base Score: 4.0 CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/94605 for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N) Affected Products and Versions WebSphere eXtreme Scale client and server 7.1.0 at all fix pack and interim fix levels. WebSphere eXtreme Scale client and server 7.1.1 at all fix pack and interim fix levels. WebSphere eXtreme Scale client and server 8.5.0 at all fix pack and interim fix levels. WebSphere eXtreme Scale client and server 8.6.0 at all fix pack and interim fix levels prior to 8.6.0.6. When WebSphere eXtreme Scale clients or servers are deployed within WebSphere Application Server, the Java SDK of the WebSphere Application Server is used, and therefore it is not necessary to install a new level of WebSphere eXtreme Scale. See the security bulletin for WebSphere Application Server at this link: https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21680418 Remediation/Fixes Apply an interim fix or fix pack as documented in the table.
