OVERVIEW:
BEA Systems have released multiple advisories describing
vulnerabilities in and updates for BEA WebLogic, WebLogic Express
and JRockit.
IMPACT:
According to the BEA Systems advisories [1] the following
vulnerabilities affect only WebLogic Server and have the following
impacts:
o BEA07-134.00 (CVE-2007-4613): This vulnerability may allow the
decryption of SSL streams. To exploit this vulnerability, an
attacker would require access to multiple streams which contain
the same plain text block and the ability to inject their own
ciphertext blocks into the connection.
o BEA07-149.00 (CVE-2007-4614): This vulnerability may result in
security policy updates not being correctly applied to managed
servers.
Note that the two advisories mentioned were released in January
2007, however, CVE Names have just been allocated and are included
in this advisory for completeness.
The following vulnerabilities affect both WebLogic Server and
WebLogic Express:
o BEA07-175.00 (CVE-2007-4615): This vulnerability may result in
clients not being able to correctly determine cipher suites, and
fall-back to unencrypted communication.
o BEA07-176.00 (CVE-2007-4616): This vulnerability may result in
a server falling back to a null SSL cipher (unencrypted
communication) if the client does not offer any supported cipher
suites.
o BEA07-87.02 (CVE-2007-4617): This vulnerability may allow a
malicious client to cause a denial of service of server threads.
o BEA07-148.01 (CVE-2007-4618): This vulnerability may allow
malicious clients sending malformed requests to cause a large
growth in the log file.
The following vulnerabilities affect JRockit:
o BEA07-177.00 (CVE-2007-2789, CVE-2007-2788, CVE-2007-3922): This
advisory describes a new release of JRockit which corrects
multiple JRE/JDK vulnerabilities, details of which can be found
on the AusCERT web site [2][3][4][5].
o BEA07-178.00 (CVE-2007-3698): This vulnerability may allow remote
attackers to cause a DoS in the Java Secure Socket Extension
(JSSE) by sending specially crafted SSL/TLS handshake requests [6].
MITIGATION:
Patches are available for all of the above mentioned
vulnerabilities. Please see the relevant BEA advisory for
location of software patches and updates.
