Security Bulletin
Summary
There are multiple vulnerabilities in IBM Runtime Environment
Java Technology Edition that is used by ClearQuest Web and ClearQuest
EmailRelay. This also includes a fix for the Padding Oracle On Downgraded
Legacy Encryption (POODLE) SSLv3 vulnerability (CVE-2014-3566). These were
disclosed as part of the IBM Java SDK updates in October 2014.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: 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)

DESCRIPTION: An unspecified vulnerability related to the JSSE component
has partial confidentiality impact, partial integrity impact, and no
availability impact.
CVSS Base Score: 4
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/97148 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
Rational ClearQuest Web greater than and inclusive of ClearQuest v7.1
ClearQuest EmailRelay, versions 8.0.0.3 and newer, and versions 8.0.1
and newer.
Note: ClearQuest EmailRelay was introduced in ClearQuest 8.0.0.3.
Remediation/Fixes
ClearQuest Web and ClearQuest EmailRelay use the Java runtime that
is included with WebSphere Application Server. Follow instructions for
updating your version of WebSphere Application Server to a version that
includes the fixes.
For ClearQuest 7.1.x
These releases ship with, install and configure WAS version 6.1.0.25. Review
technote 1390803: How to update the IBM WebSphere Application Server
components in Rational ClearCase and Rational ClearQuest 7.1
For ClearQuest 8.x
These releases use an installation of WAS separately installed and maintained
from the ClearQuest installation.
Determine the version of WAS that your deployment is using and follow the
instructions at
Security Bulletin: Multiple vulnerabilities in IBM Java SDK affect
WebSphere Application Server October 2014 CPU to update your version of
the JRE supplied by WAS. This applies for all versions of ClearQuest Web
Server greater than and inclusive of v7.1.
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. You should verify disabling SSLv3 does not cause any
compatibility issues.
