Summary
TLS connections using Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchange protocol affects IBM
SPSS Data Accesss Pack 7.1.1. This attack has been referred to as "Logjam"
in various sources. IBM SPSS Data Access Pack is a software component used

DESCRIPTION: The TLS protocol could allow a remote attacker to obtain
sensitive information, caused by the failure to properly convey a DHE_EXPORT
ciphersuite choice. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using
man-in-the-middle techniques to force a downgrade to 512-bit export-grade
cipher. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to recover the
session key as well as modify the contents of the traffic. This vulnerability
is commonly referred to as "Logjam".
