Security Vulnerabilities, HIPER and Special Attention APARs fixed in DB2 for 
Linux, UNIX, and Windows Version 9.1 Fix Pack 12

Flash (Alert)

Document information
DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows
Installation - Fix Pack

Software version:
9.1

Operating system(s):
AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, Windows

Reference #:

Abstract

Fix Pack 12 for DB2 V9.1 is now available which includes fixes for some 
security vulnerabilities. These fixes, where applicable, are also available in 
a Fix Pack for DB2 Version 9.5, a Fix Pack for DB2 Version 9.7, a Fix Pack for 
DB2 Version 9.8 and a Fix Pack for DB2 Version 10.1.

IBM recommends that you review the APAR descriptions and deploy one of the 
above fix packs to correct them on your affected DB2 installations.

Content

A set of security vulnerabilities was discovered in some DB2 database products. 
These vulnerabilities were analyzed by the DB2 development organization and a 
set of corresponding fixes was created to address the reported issues.

The affected DB2 UDB for Linux, UNIX, and Windows products are:

    DB2 Enterprise Server Edition
    DB2 Workgroup Server (all Editions)
    DB2 Express Server (all Editions)
    DB2 Personal Edition
    DB2 Connect Server (all Editions)


DB2 Client component and DB2 products or components other than those listed 
above are not affected.

Due to the complexity of the fixes required to eliminate the reported service 
issues, it is not feasible to retrofit the same fixes into earlier DB2 Version 
9.1, DB2 Version 9.5, DB2 Version 9.7 fix packs and DB2 Version 9.8 fix packs.
