Abstract

Two vulnerabilities have been detected in the management interface of the 
affected products. The vulnerabilities are listed under CVE-2012-2955 and 
CVE-2012-2202. An update has been created by IBM Security Systems that 
addresses the vulnerabilities.

Content

Two vulnerabilities have been detected in the management interface of the 
affected products.
The vulnerabilities are:

    CVE-2012-2955: "Reflected XSS" allowing the execution of Javascript code as 
    part of the management interface page displayed.
    CVE-2012-2202: An "Arbitrary File Read" which allows access to files the 
    web server process has authorization to read/


Mitigating Factors:

Both attacks are post-authentication and require the attacker to have valid 
login credentials for the admin UI. The end user interface is not affected by 
these vulnerabilities.


Resolving the Issue:

An update has been created by IBM Security Systems that addresses the 
vulnerabilities.
Depending on the Firmware your system is running on, there are several options 
to proceed.


Firmware 2.8 or newer:

    If you have enabled automatic System Package Updates no further action is 
    necessary. The system will download install the update automatically.
    If you do manual System Package Updates:
    - Log in to the Management Console
    - Go to "Updates" -> "Updates & Licensing"
    - Install all pending System Package Updates

Firmware 2.5:

    The update must be installed manually
    SSH to the system (log in as 'root')
    Run "wget http://upload.cobion.com/download/pnmss/repotools-1.1.3-16059.i586.rpm"
    Run "rpm -ihv --nodeps repotools-1.1.3-16059.i586.rpm"
