Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2015-0488

DESCRIPTION:An unspecified vulnerability related to the JSSE component could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

CVSS Base Score: 5

CVSS Temporal Score: Seehttps://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/102336for the current score

CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined

CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)

CVEID:CVE-2015-0204

DESCRIPTION:A vulnerability in the OpenSSL ssl3_get_key_exchange function could allow a remote attacker to downgrade the security of certain TLS connections. An OpenSSL client accepts the use of an RSA temporary key in a non-export RSA key exchange ciphersuite. This could allow a remote attacker using man-in-the-middle techniques to facilitate brute-force decryption of TLS/SSL traffic between vulnerable clients and servers. This vulnerability is also known as the FREAK attack.

CVSS Base Score: 4.3

CVSS Temporal Score: Seehttps://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/99707for the current score

CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined

CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2015-2808

DESCRIPTION:The RC4 algorithm, as used in the TLS protocol and SSL protocol, could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to remotely expose account credentials without requiring an active man-in-the-middle session. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to retrieve credit card data or other sensitive information. This vulnerability is commonly referred to as "Bar Mitzvah Attack".

CVSS Base Score: 5

CVSS Temporal Score: Seehttps://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/101851for the current score

CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined

CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2015-1916

DESCRIPTION:Server applications which use the IBM Java Secure Socket Extension provider to accept SSL/TLS connections are vulnerable to a denial of service attack due to an unspecified vulnerability.

CVSS Base Score: 5

CVSS Temporal Score: Seehttps://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/101995for the current score

CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined

CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)
