Security Bulletin: Multiple vulnerabilities in IBM Java SDK and IBM Java
Runtime affect IBM QRadar SIEM (CVE-2019-2816, CVE-2019-2762, CVE-2019-2769)
Document Information
Modified date: 09 January 2020
UID: ibm11170340
Summary
There are multiple vulnerabilities in IBM SDK Java Technology Edition,
Version 8 and IBM Runtime Environment Java Version 8 used by IBM QRadar SIEM.
IBM QRadar SIEM has addressed the applicable CVEs.
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2019-2816
DESCRIPTION: Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of
Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Networking). Supported versions that are affected
are Java SE: 7u221, 8u212, 11.0.3 and 12.0.1; Java SE Embedded: 8u211.
Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network
access via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded.
Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized update,
insert or delete access to some of Java SE, Java SE Embedded accessible data as
well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Java SE, Java SE Embedded
accessible data. Note: This vulnerability applies to Java deployments,
typically in clients running sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed
Java applets (in Java SE 8), that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that
comes from the internet) and rely on the Java sandbox for security. This
vulnerability can also be exploited by using APIs in the specified Component,
e.g., through a web service which supplies data to the APIs. CVSS 3.0 Base
Score 4.8 (Confidentiality and Integrity impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/
AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N).
CVSS Base score: 4.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
163878 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N)
CVEID: CVE-2019-2762
DESCRIPTION: Vulnerability in the Java SE, Java SE Embedded component of
Oracle Java SE (subcomponent: Utilities). Supported versions that are affected
are Java SE: 7u221, 8u212, 11.0.3 and 12.0.1; Java SE Embedded: 8u211. Easily
exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with network access
via multiple protocols to compromise Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Successful
attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a
partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Java SE, Java SE Embedded. Note:
This vulnerability applies to Java deployments, typically in clients running
sandboxed Java Web Start applications or sandboxed Java applets (in Java SE 8),
that load and run untrusted code (e.g., code that comes from the internet) and
rely on the Java sandbox for security. This vulnerability can also be exploited
by using APIs in the specified Component, e.g., through a web service which
supplies data to the APIs. CVSS 3.0 Base Score 5.3 (Availability impacts). CVSS

Security Bulletin: OpenSSL as used by IBM QRadar SIEM is Missing a Required
Cryptographic Step (CVE-2019-1559)
Document Information
Modified date: 09 January 2020
UID: ibm11170328
Summary
OpenSSL as used by IBM QRadar SIEM is Missing a Required Cryptographic Step
Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2019-1559
DESCRIPTION: If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then
calls SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive
one) then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0
byte record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is
received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently based
on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this amounts to a
padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data. In order for this to be
exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in use. Stitched ciphersuites
are optimised implementations of certain commonly used ciphersuites. Also the
application must call SSL_shutdown() twice even if a protocol error has
occurred (applications should not do this but some do anyway). Fixed in OpenSSL
1.0.2r (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2q).
CVSS Base score: 5.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
