Security Bulletin
Summary
IBM Security Identity Manager Virtual Appliance (ISIM VA) has addressed the following vulnerabilities due to buffer overflow, remote arbitrary code execution, and denial of service.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2017-6464
DESCRIPTION: NTP is vulnerable to a denial of service. A remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a malformed mode configuration directive to cause the application to crash.
CVSS Base Score: 4.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/123610 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2017-6463
DESCRIPTION: NTP is vulnerable to a denial of service. By sending an invalid setting, a remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability using the :config directive to cause the daemon to crash.
CVSS Base Score: 4.2
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/123612 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2017-6462
DESCRIPTION: NTP is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a buffer overflow in the legacy Datum Programmable Time Server refclock driver. By sending specially crafted packets, a local authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to overflow a buffer and cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base Score: 1.6
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/123611 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:P/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)
CVEID: CVE-2015-3331
DESCRIPTION: Linux Kernel, built with the Intel AES-NI instructions for AES algorithm support (CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_NI_INTEL), is vulnerable to a buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the RFC4106 GCM mode decryption functionality. By sending fragmented packets using the Intel AES-NI instruction, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with elevated privileges.
CVSS Base Score: 9.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/103483 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C)
CVEID: CVE-2014-2523
DESCRIPTION: Linux Kernel could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by an error in the /netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_dccp.c file. By sending a specially-crafted DCCP packet, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to corrupt kernel stack memory and execute arbitrary code on the system with kernel privileges.
CVSS Base Score: 10
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/91910 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C)
