vulnerabilities (CVE-2015-5300, CVE-2015-7704, CVE-2015-8138)
Security Bulletin
Document information
More support for:
IBM Security Access Manager for Web
Software version:
7.0, 8.0, 8.0.0.2, 8.0.0.4, 8.0.0.5, 8.0.1, 8.0.1.2, 8.0.1.3, 9.0, 9.0.0.1
Operating system(s):

Modified date:
2016-05-30
Summary
The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to synchronize a computer's time with
a referenced time source.
Vulnerabilities that have been identified in NTP affect IBM Security Access
Manager for Web.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID:
CVE-2015-5300
DESCRIPTION:
Network Time Protocol (NTP) could allow a remote attacker to bypass security
restrictions, caused by the failure to correctly implement the threshold
limitation for the '-g' option. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability
using man-in-the-middle techniques to intercept NTP traffic and make multiple
steps larger than the panic threshold.
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/107594
for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)
CVEID:
CVE-2015-7704
DESCRIPTION:
Network Time Protocol (NTP) is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by
an error in the rate-limiting mechanism. By sending spoofed Kiss-o'-Death
packets, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to disable NTP at a
victim client.
CVSS Base Score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/107446
for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID:
CVE-2015-8138
DESCRIPTION:
NTP could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions. By sending
a specially crafted packet with an origin timestamp of zero, an attacker
could exploit this vulnerability to bypass the timestamp validation check.
CVSS Base Score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See
https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/110025
for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)
