Security Vulnerability in the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and
Secure Sockets Layer 3.0 (SSLv3) Protocols Affects Multiple Server
Products in the Sun Java Enterprise System Suite
  _________________________________________________________________

Category : Security
Release Phase : Workaround
Bug Id : 6899619, 6898371
Product : Sun Java System Web Server 6.1
Sun Java System Web Server 7.0
Sun Java System Web Proxy Server 4.0
Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition
Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v2.1
Date of Workaround Release : 07-Jan-2010

Security Vulnerability in the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets
 Layer 3.0 (SSLv3) Protocols Affects Multiple Server Products in the Sun Java E
nterprise System Suite


1. Impact
A security vulnerability in the in Transport Layer Security (TLS) and
Secure Sockets Layer 3.0 (SSLv3) protocols in the handling of
session renegotiations affects Network Security Services (NSS)
libraries bundled with the following products:

- - Sun Java System Web Server
- - Sun Java System Web Proxy Server
- - Sun Java System Application Server
- - Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server

Systems running these server applications are susceptible to a
man-in-the-middle attack whereby a remote unauthenticated user with
the ability to intercept and control network traffic may send
unauthenticated request at the beginning of an HTTPS session that is
processed retroactively by the server. The vulnerability does not
allow one to decrypt the HTTPS responses or requests in the session.
This issue is referenced in the following document:

CVE-2009-3555 at
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-3555

Sun acknowledges with thanks, Marsh Ray and Steve Dispensa of
PhoneFactor for bringing this issue to our attention.
Please also see Sun Alert 273350 that describes this issue in NSS
libraries provided with Solaris and Sun Java System Enterprise System 5.

Notes:

1. Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v2.1.1 was formerly referred to as
Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v2.1 patch 6 also known as Sun Java
System Application Server 9.1 patch 12.

2. Sun Java System Application Server (Platform Edition) and Sun
GlassFish Enterprise Server without HADB are not impacted by this
issue.
To determine the version of Sun Java System Web Proxy Sever on a
system, the following command can be run:
$ <ps_install>/bin/proxy/bin/proxyd -v
Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Sun Java System Web Proxy Server 4.0.6 B05/12/2007 13:24

(Where <ps_install> is the installation directory of the Proxy
Server).
To determine the version of Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 on a
system, the following command can be run:
$ <WS-install>/https-<host>/start -version

(Where <WS-install> is the installation directory of the Web Server
and <host> should be the actual host name on which the Web Server is
installed).
To determine the version of Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 on a
system, the following command can be run:
$ <WS-install>/bin/wadm --version

(Where <WS-install> is the installation directory of the Web Server).
To determine the version of Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server or
Application Server on a system, the following command can be run:
$ <AS-install>/bin/asadmin version

(Where <AS-install> is the installation directory of the Application
Server).


3. Symptoms
There are no predictable symptoms that would indicate this issue has
been exploited.

4. Workaround
To workaround the issue in Sun Java System Web Server, a client
certificate can be obtained during the initial connection handshake.
This mode can be configured by setting the client-auth element to
'required' in server.xml, as in the following example:

<http-listener>
    <ssl>
        <client-auth>required</client-auth>
    </ssl>
</http-listener>

There is no workaround for this issue for the other server products.
Please see the 'Resolution' section below.

5. Resolution
This issue is addressed in the following releases:
SPARC Platform
  * Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 update 7 or later
  * Sun Java System Web Proxy Server Server 4.0.13 or later
  * Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v2.1.1 with HADB - Package Based
    with patch 128640-15 or later (for customers with valid
    support contract)
  * Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v2.1.1 with HADB with patch

    contract)

A final resolution is pending completion.
IMPORTANT: The above patches disable TLS session renegotiations. It is
advisable to test these patches with applications that use NSS
libraries before deploying them for wider use.
Notes:

1. Systems with Sun Java System Application Server 8.0 should be
upgraded to a later version and apply the resolution patches mentioned
above.

2. If an application depends on renegotiation feature, it can be
enabled by setting the environment variable
NSS_SSL_ENABLE_RENEGOTIATION to 1. By setting this environmental
variable, the fix provided by these patches will have no effect and
the application may become vulnerable to the issue.
