CVEID: CVE-2017-10115
DESCRIPTION: An unspecified vulnerability related to the Java SE, Java SE
Embedded, JRockit JCE component could allow an unauthenticated attacker to
obtain sensitive information resulting in a high confidentiality impact using
unknown attack vectors.
CVSS Base Score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
128876 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2017-10116
DESCRIPTION: An unspecified vulnerability related to the Java SE, Java SE
Embedded, JRockit Security component could allow an unauthenticated attacker to
take control of the system.
CVSS Base Score: 8.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
128877 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H)
Affected Products and Versions
IBM Rational ClearCase, versions 8.0 and 9.0 in the following components:
* CCRC WAN server/CM Server component, when configured to use SSL
* ClearCase remote client: CCRC/CTE GUI, rcleartool, and CMAPI clients, when
using SSL to access a CCRC WAN Server/CM Server
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| ClearCase version | Status |
|---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------|
| 9.0.1, 9.0.1.1 | Affected |
|---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------|
| 9.0 through 9.0.0.5 | Affected |
|---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------|
| 8.0.1 through 8.0.1.15 | Affected |
|---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------|
| 8.0 through 8.0.0.21 | Affected |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Remediation/Fixes
The solution is to install a fix that includes an updated Java Virtual Machine
with fixes for the issues, and to apply fixes for WebSphere Application Server
(WAS).
CCRC Client fixes
Apply the relevant fixes as listed in the table below.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|Affected Versions | Applying the fix |
|------------------+------------------------------------------------------|
| 9.0.1 through |Install Rational ClearCase Fix Pack 2 (9.0.1.2) for |
| 9.0.1.1 |9.0.1 |
|------------------+------------------------------------------------------|
| 9.0 through |Install Rational ClearCase Fix Pack 6 (9.0.0.6) for |
| 9.0.0.5 |9.0 |
|------------------+------------------------------------------------------|
| 8.0.1 through |Install Rational ClearCase Fix Pack 16 (8.0.1.16) for |
| 8.0.1.13 |8.0.1 |
| 8.0 through | |
| 8.0.0.21 | |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
For 7.0, 7.1, and earlier releases, IBM recommends upgrading to a fixed,
supported version/release/platform of the product.
Notes:
+ If you use CCRC as an extension offering installed into an Eclipse
shell (one not provided as part of a ClearCase release), or you use
rcleartool or CMAPI using a Java Virtual Machine not supplied by IBM
as part of Rational ClearCase, you should update the Java Virtual
Machine that you use to include a fix for the above issues. Contact the
supplier of your Java Virtual Machine and/or the supplier of your
Eclipse shell.
CCRC WAN server fixes
1. Determine the WAS version used by your CCRC WAN server. Navigate to the
CCRC profile directory (either the profile you specified when
installing ClearCase, or <ccase-home>/common/ccrcprofile), then execute
the script: bin/versionInfo.sh (UNIX) or bin\versionInfo.bat (Windows).
The output includes a section "IBM WebSphere Application Server". Make
note of the version listed in this section.
2. Review the following WAS security bulletin:
Security Bulletin: Multiple vulnerabilities in IBM Java SDK affects
WebSphere Application Server July 2017 CPU
and apply the latest available fix for the version of WAS used for
CCRC WAN server.
Note: there may be newer security fixes for WebSphere Application
Server. Follow the link below (in the section "Get Notified about
Future Security Bulletins") to subscribe to WebSphere product support
alerts for additional Java SDK fixes.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|Affected Versions | Applying the fix |
|------------------+------------------------------------------------------|
|8.0.0.x |Apply the appropriate WebSphere Application Server fix|
|8.0.1.x |directly to your CCRC WAN server host. No |
|9.0.0.x |ClearCase-specific steps are necessary. |
|9.0.1.x | |
