These issues were disclosed as part of the IBM Java SDK updates in October 2017. Vulnerability Details CVEID: CVE-2017-10356 DESCRIPTION: An unspecified vulnerability related to the Java SE Security component could allow an unauthenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information resulting in a high confidentiality impact using unknown attack vectors. CVSS Base Score: 6.2 CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/ 133785 for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) CVEID: CVE-2017-10345 DESCRIPTION: An unspecified vulnerability related to the Java SE Serialization component could allow an unauthenticated attacker to cause a denial of service resulting in a low availability impact using unknown attack vectors. CVSS Base Score: 3.1 CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/ 133774 for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L) Affected Products and Versions IBM Rational ClearQuest version 9 in the following components: o ClearQuest Web/CQ OSLC server/CM Server component, when configured to use SSL. o ClearQuest Eclipse clients that use Report Designer, run remote reports on servers using secure connections, or use the embedded browser to connect to secure web sites. If you do not use the ClearQuest Eclipse client in this way, then you are not affected. +---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | ClearQuest version | Status | +---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | 9.0.1 through 9.0.1.2 | Affected | +---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | 9.0 through 9.0.0.6 | Affected | +---------------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ Remediation/Fixes The solution is to install a fix that includes an updated Java(TM) Virtual Machine with fixes for the issues, and to apply fixes for WebSphere Application Server (WAS). ClearQuest Web/CQ OSLC Server/CM Server Component 1. Determine the WAS version used by your CM server. Navigate to the CM profile directory (either the profile you specified when installing ClearQuest, or <clearquest-home>/cqweb/cqwebprofile), 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(R) Java SDK affects WebSphere Application Server October 2017 CPU and apply the latest available fix for the version of WAS used for CM server. Note: there may be newer security fixes for WebSphere Application Server.
