|ClearQuest Versions| Applying the fix |
+-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
|8.0.0.x | 1. Determine the WAS version used by your CM server. |
|8.0.1.x | Navigate to the CM profile directory (either the |
|9.0.0.x | profile you specified when installing ClearQuest, or|
|9.0.1.x | <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. Identify the latest available fix (per the bulletin |
| | listed above) for the version of WAS used for CM |
| | server. |
| | 3. Apply the appropriate WebSphere Application Server |
| | fix directly to your CM server host. No |
| | ClearQuest-specific steps are necessary. |
+-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+

Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2018-20843
DESCRIPTION: In libexpat in Expat before 2.2.7, XML input including XML names
that contain a large number of colons could make the XML parser consume a high
amount of RAM and CPU resources while processing (enough to be usable for
denial-of-service attacks).
CVSS Base score: 3.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
163073 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)
CVEID: CVE-2019-4270
DESCRIPTION: IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 Admin
Console is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability allows users
to embed arbitrary JavaScript code in the Web UI thus altering the intended
functionality potentially leading to credentials disclosure within a trusted
session. IBM X-Force ID: 160203.
CVSS Base score: 5.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
160203 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2019-9515
DESCRIPTION: Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a settings flood,
potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker sends a stream of
SETTINGS frames to the peer. Since the RFC requires that the peer reply with
one acknowledgement per SETTINGS frame, an empty SETTINGS frame is almost
equivalent in behavior to a ping. Depending on how efficiently this data is
queued, this can consume excess CPU, memory, or both.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
165181 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2019-9518
DESCRIPTION: Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a flood of empty
frames, potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker sends a stream
of frames with an empty payload and without the end-of-stream flag. These
frames can be DATA, HEADERS, CONTINUATION and/or PUSH_PROMISE. The peer spends
time processing each frame disproportionate to attack bandwidth. This can
consume excess CPU.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
164904 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2019-9517
DESCRIPTION: Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to unconstrained
interal data buffering, potentially leading to a denial of service. The
attacker opens the HTTP/2 window so the peer can send without constraint;
however, they leave the TCP window closed so the peer cannot actually write
(many of) the bytes on the wire. The attacker then sends a stream of requests
for a large response object. Depending on how the servers queue the responses,
this can consume excess memory, CPU, or both.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
165183 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2019-9512
DESCRIPTION: Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to ping floods,
potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker sends continual pings
to an HTTP/2 peer, causing the peer to build an internal queue of responses.
Depending on how efficiently this data is queued, this can consume excess CPU,
memory, or both.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
164903 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2019-9514
DESCRIPTION: Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to a reset flood,
potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker opens a number of
streams and sends an invalid request over each stream that should solicit a
stream of RST_STREAM frames from the peer. Depending on how the peer queues the
RST_STREAM frames, this can consume excess memory, CPU, or both.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
164640 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2019-9513
DESCRIPTION: Some HTTP/2 implementations are vulnerable to resource loops,
potentially leading to a denial of service. The attacker creates multiple
request streams and continually shuffles the priority of the streams in a way
that causes substantial churn to the priority tree. This can consume excess
CPU.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
164639 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2019-4477
DESCRIPTION: IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, and 9.0 could
allow a user with access to audit logs to obtain sensitive information, caused
by improper handling of command line options. IBM X-Force ID: 163997.

DESCRIPTION: The file name encoding algorithm used internally in Apache Commons
Compress 1.15 to 1.18 can get into an infinite loop when faced with specially
crafted inputs. This can lead to a denial of service attack if an attacker can
choose the file names inside of an archive created by Compress.

CVEID: CVE-2019-10092
DESCRIPTION: In Apache HTTP Server 2.4.0-2.4.39, a limited cross-site scripting
issue was reported affecting the mod_proxy error page. An attacker could cause
the link on the error page to be malformed and instead point to a page of their
choice. This would only be exploitable where a server was set up with proxying
enabled but was misconfigured in such a way that the Proxy Error page was
displayed.

CVEID: CVE-2019-10098
DESCRIPTION: In Apache HTTP server 2.4.0 to 2.4.39, Redirects configured with
mod_rewrite that were intended to be self-referential might be fooled by
encoded newlines and redirect instead to an unexpected URL within the request
URL.

could send a specially-crafted URL containing "dot dot" sequences (/../) to
view arbitrary files on the system. IBM X-Force ID: 160201.
