Abstract

IBM Rational ClearCase uses the OpenSSL component for establishing SSL 
connections. ClearCase now ships an updated version of OpenSSL on Unix and 
Linux platforms, and uses a new component called IBM GSKit on Windows which 
also mitigates against the OpenSSL vulnerabilities.

Content

CVE ID: multiple

Description: OpenSSL versions prior to 1.0.0 do not follow best security 
practices and need to be upgraded. For a complete list of OpenSSL 
Vulnerabilities by version, please refer to:
http://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html

ClearCase 8.0.0.5 and 7.1.2.9 have been upgraded to ship with version 1.0.1C 
OpenSSL. Prior versions of ClearCase shipped with OpenSSL version 0.9.7e. On 
Windows platforms, ClearCase now uses the IBM GSKit component to perform SSL. 
IBM GSKit includes the OpenSSL security corrections.

The OpenSSL component is used by ClearCase for making SSL connections for 
OSLC-enabled UCM to ClearQuest. The OpenSSL component is also invoked if user 
supplied Perl code uses ratlperl to make SSL connections.

These vulnerabilities are not relevant for the traditional ClearCase to 
ClearQuest UCM integration.

CVSS:
CVSS Base Score: multiple. See http://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html
CVSS Temporal Score: 
CVSS Environmental Score: Undefined
CVSS Vector:

Affected Platforms: 
Any supported platform.

Remediation: 
Upgrade to ClearCase version
* 8.0.0.5: Download document 4033980
* 7.1.2.9: Download document 4033978

Workarounds:
None.

Mitigation: 
Keep the SSL connections used for OSLC-enabled UCM between ClearCase and 
ClearQuest behind firewalls, and on your internal network.

The CVSS Environment Score is customer environment specific and will 
ultimately impact the Overall CVSS Score. Customers can evaluate the impact of 
this vulnerability in their environments by accessing the links in the 
Reference section of this Flash.

Note: According to the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST), 
the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an "industry open standard 
designed to convey vulnerability severity and help to determine urgency and 
priority of response." IBM PROVIDES THE CVSS SCORES "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY 
OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS 
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT 
OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY.
