Affected Products and Versions

IBM Application Manager for Smart Business 1.2.1
IBM Tivoli Foundations Application Manager 1.2
IBM Tivoli Foundations Application Manager 1.1.1

Remediation/Fixes

These vulnerabilities exist where the affected Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is installed on systems running the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Browser client or Java WebStart client. The affected JRE is installed on a system when logging into the IBM Tivoli Enterprise Portal using the Browser client or WebStart client and a JRE at the required level does not exist. The portal provides an option to download the provided JRE to the system.

This fix below provides updated JRE packages for the portal which can be downloaded by new client systems. Once the fix has been installed on the portal server, instructions in the README can be used to download the updated JRE from the portal to the portal clients.

FixVRMFAPARHow to acquire fix
6.X.X-TIV-ITM_JRE_TEP-201404046.2.0 through 6.3.0 FP2IV52806http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg2403276

Installation Instructions

Updating the portal server

1. Back up your TFAM 1.1.1 / IAMSB.

2. Close any open Lotus Foundations Web Console, TEP, TCR and Welcome Page windows.

3. Create a temporary directory and make it the current directory.

    mkdir/home/tfam-appliance_patch/Files/TIV-ITM_JRE_TEP_5.16.05.00
    cd /home/tfam-appliance_patch/Files/TIV-ITM_JRE_TEP_5.16.05.00

4. Download 6.X.X-TIV-ITM_JRE_TEP_5.16.05.00.tar from Fix Central and extract to the temporary directory.
tar -xf 6.X.X-TIV-ITM_JRE_TEP_5.16.05.00.tar

5. Enter the NVS via "nvs" command and select "IBM Application Manager for Smart Business " or “IBM Tivoli Foundations Application Manager 1.2”

6. Shutdown TFAM / IAMSB

    /images/setupScripts/TFAM_shutdown.sh

7. Switch to the patch directory and apply the patch
    cd /opt/patch/TIV-ITM_JRE_TEP_5.16.05.00
    ./jreupdate.sh -h /opt/IBM/ITM

8. Start TFAM / IAMSB
    /images/setupScripts/TFAM_startup.sh



Updating the portal clients

After the portal server is updated, each portal client, has to be updated.



Windows Platform
    1. Click "Start->Run...", open "appwiz.cpl", and click "OK"
    2. Find the entry for IBM Runtime Environment for Java, select it, and click "Uninstall" or "Remove" (depending on Windows version).
    3. Log back into the portal client using your web browser. You will be prompted to download and install the new JRE from the portal server.
    4. Restart the portal client.

Linux Platform:
1. Find the full name of the currently installed package:
rpm -qa | grep "^ibm-java"

2. Uninstall using the full package name from step 1:
rpm -ev OLD_PACKAGE_NAME

3. Log back into the portal client using your web browser. You will be prompted to download and install the new JRE from the portal server.

4. Install the package using the full name from step 3:
rpm -ivh NEW_PACKAGE_NAME

5. Restart the portal client.


Additional installation information

You can verify the new JRE level on the TFAM / IAMSB using cinfo -t jr command.
tfamindia01:~ # /opt/IBM/ITM/bin/cinfo -t jr

Known problems and workarounds

If you update the portal server with a new fix pack, the JRE files are replaced by the content of the fix pack. You may need to re-apply this package to restore the JRE files.



If you install IBM JRE version 5 for the portal client, the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Java Web Start client version 6.20.xx.xx and 6.21.xx.xx may fail to launch. Use the Tivoli Enterprise Portal
browser client with these versions.

When the Java Web Start client is started, it may hang with an empty window. This problem can be bypassed by enabling Java's "Show Console" option in the Java Control Panel.
