Changes to the SSL library and Cryptographic Module used by components of the
Tivoli Endpoint Manager as of the 8.2.1310 release.

Technote (troubleshooting)

Problem(Abstract)

The article documents changes made to the SSL library and Cryptographic Module
used by components of the Tivoli Endpoint Manager with the release of 8.2.1310
on July 31, 2012.

Resolving the problem

Prior to the most recent release, TEM made use of SSL and Cryptography
libraries based on the 0.9.8f release of OpenSSL. The cryptographic module
binary was then evaluated and granted FIPS 140-2 certification by the National
Institute of Standards and Technology. Since that time, several security
vulnerabilities of varying severity have been discovered in this revision of
OpenSSL. The following vulnerabilities in particular affect TEM server
components which use the 0.9.8f-based libraries:

* Insecure renegotiation of SSL sessions (CVE-2009-3555)
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-3555

* ASN1 parser buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2012-2110)
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-2110

To offer a fully-patched secure option while maintaining support for the
FIPS-certified binary for customers requiring certification, all TEM 8.2.1310
components* include an upgraded SSL library (patching the SSL renegotiation
vulnerability for both FIPS and non-FIPS deployments) as well as the ability to
choose between the OpenSSL 0.9.8f-based FIPS library (libBEScrypto_1_0_0_1) and
the patched OpenSSL 0.9.8x-based non-FIPS library (libBEScrypto_1_0_0_4).
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-2110

Adding or Removing FIPS Compliance

Adding or removing FIPS compliance requirements in TEM 8.2.1310 components
requires a restart. Components will continue to function while pending restart,
but will not switch cryptography modules until the restart occurs.

For more information on enabling/disabling FIPS in the TEM environment, see:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21506167

Upgrade Behaviors

With the exception of Web Reports, no additional steps are required to maintain
existing FIPS compliance settings post upgrade.

As of 8.2.1310, the Web Reports component is configured for FIPS compliance
separately from the rest of the deployment. To require FIPS compliance for a
Web Reports installation:

1. Ensure that the client setting _BESClient_Cryptography_FipsMode is set to 1
on the Web Reports computer.

2. Upgrade the Web Reports instance.

* AIX components and clients built for the S390X processor architecture use
only the libBEScrypto_1_0_0_1 library because of idiosyncrasies in the way
those libraries were created. This does NOT make these components insecure
because the CVE-2009-3555 and CVE-2012-2110 vulnerabilities are only exposed in
TEM server components.

developerWorks Wiki.
