Summary
OpenSSL vulnerabilities were disclosed on January 8, 2015 and March 19, 2015
by the OpenSSL Project. This includes FREAK: Factoring Attack on RSA-EXPORT
keys" TLS/SSL client and server vulnerability. OpenSSL is used by IBM
InfoSphere Information Server. IBM InfoSphere Information Server has addressed
the applicable CVEs.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2015-0204
DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability in the OpenSSL ssl3_get_key_exchange function
could allow a remote attacker to downgrade the security of certain TLS
connections. An OpenSSL client accepts 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
http://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/#/vulnerabilities/99707 for the current
score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector:
(AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2014-3570
DESCRIPTION: An unspecified error in OpenSSL related to the production of
incorrect results on some platforms by Bignum squaring (BN_sqr) has an unknown
attack vector and impact. CVSS Base Score: 2.6 CVSS Temporal Score: See
http://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/#/vulnerabilities/99710 or the current
score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector:
(AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2014-8275
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL could allow a local attacker to bypass security
restrictions, caused by the modification of the fingerprint without breaking
the signature. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using non-DER or
invalid encodings outside the signed portion of a certificate bypass security
restrictions and perform unauthorized actions. CVSS Base Score: 1.2 CVSS
Temporal Score: See
http://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/#/vulnerabilities/99709 for the current
score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector:
(AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2015-0286
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an error
in the ASN1_TYPE_cmp function when attempting to compare ASN.1 boolean types.
An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to crash any certificate
verification operation and cause a denial of service. CVSS Base Score: 5 CVSS
Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/#/vulnerabilities/101666 for the current
score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector:
(AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)
CVEID: CVE-2015-0292
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code
on the system, caused by an error when processing base64 encoded data. An
attacker could exploit this vulnerability using specially-crafted base 64 data
to corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code on the system and cause a denial
of service. CVSS Base Score: 7.5 CVSS Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/#/vulnerabilities/101670 for the current
score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector:
(AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P)
CVEID: CVE-2015-0293
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service. By sending a
specially-crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message, a remote attacker could
exploit this vulnerability to trigger an assertion. CVSS Base Score: 5 CVSS
Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/#/vulnerabilities/101671 for the current
score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector:
(AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)
CVEID: CVE-2015-0209
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code
on the system, caused by a use-after-free error in the d2i_ECPrivateKey or
EVP_PKCS82PKEY function. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to
corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code on the system and cause a denial of
service. CVSS Base Score: 7.5 CVSS Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/#/vulnerabilities/101674 for the current
score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector:
(AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P)
CVEID: CVE-2015-0288
DESCRIPTION: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an error
in the X509_to_X509_REQ function. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability
to trigger a NULL pointer dereference. CVSS Base Score: 5 CVSS Temporal Score:
