Security Bulletin

Summary

The FREAK: Factoring Attack on RSA-EXPORT keys" TLS/SSL client and server
vulnerability affects IBM SDK Java Technology Edition, Version 6.0.16.2,
that is used by Rational Lifecycle Integration Adapter for HP ALM.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID: CVE-2015-0138
DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability in various IBM SSL/TLS implementations could
allow a remote attacker to downgrade the security of certain SSL/TLS
connections. An IBM SSL/TLS client implementation could accept the use of
an RSA temporary key in a non-export RSA key exchange ciphersuite. This
could allow a remote attacker using man-in-the-middle techniques to
facilitate brute-force decryption of TLS/SSL traffic between vulnerable
clients and servers.

This vulnerability is also known as the FREAK attack.

CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See

current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)

Affected Products and Versions

IBM Rational Lifecycle Integration Adapter for HP ALM 1.2 and later versions

Remediation/Fixes

The fix is available on Fix Central.

You should verify that applying this fix does not cause any compatibility
issues.

To update IBM Rational Lifecycle Integration Adapter with a corrected JRE,
follow the instructions below. Depending on how you deployed the products,
and depending on your usage scenarios, you might need to upgrade the
IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition in IBM WebSphere Application Server and
Apache Tomcat. Be sure to upgrade all the components that you use in your
deployment uses.

NOTE: IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition is only included in IBM Rational
Lifecycle Integration Adapter version 1.1.2 or later. Previous versions
of the Rational Lifecycle Integration Adapter Standard Edition HP Adapter
were released as WAR files only. Please consult with the application server
documentation for updating the IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition.

Upgrading the JRE for a WebSphere Application Server installation

If your products are deployed on WebSphere Application Server, Java SDK
Upgrade Policy for the IBM WebSphere Application Server lists IBM SDK,
Java Technology Edition upgrades that are available. Also check the
Product Security Incident Response Blog for any recent security bulletins
for WebSphere Application Server that may have fixpacks or interim fixes
for the JRE, such as IBM Security Bulletin: Multiple vulnerabilities in
current IBM SDK for Java for WebSphere Application Server April 2014 CPU.

Upgrading the IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition for a Tomcat installations

1. Stop the Rational Lifecycle Integration Adapter server.

Note: The applications may be running in different application server
instances or using a delegated converter.

2. Go to the original installation directory, and rename the /jre folder

<InstallDir>/server/jre

to

<InstallDir>/server/jre-Original

This ensures that the original JRE is kept as a backup in the event a
restore is required.

Example (Linux):
mv <OrigInstallDir>/server/jre <OrigInstallDir>/server/jre-Original

3. Extract the new JRE archive provided by support to the Installation
directory.

Example (Linux):
unzip <newInsallZip> -d <InstallDir>/server/

4. Remove the Apache Tomcat temporary files in the following directories:

<OrigInstallDir>/server/tomcat/temp
<OrigInstallDir>/server/tomcat/work/Catalina/localhost

5. Restart the Rational Lifecycle Integration Adapter server
