Security Bulletin: IBM QRadar SIEM and QRadar Risk Manager can be affected by three vulnerabilities in the IBM Java Runtime Environment (CVE-2013-0440, CVE-2013-0443, CVE-2013-0169)

Abstract

CVE-2013-0440 - Unspecified vulnerability in IBM Java Runtime Environment allows remote attackers to affect availability via vectors related to JSSE.

CVE- 2013-0443 - Unspecified vulnerability in IBM Java Runtime Environment allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality and integrity via vectors related to JSSE

CVE-2013-0169 - The Transport Layer Security protocol does not properly consider timing side-channel attacks, which allows remote attackers to conduct distinguishing attacks and plain-text recovery attacks via statistical analysis of timing data for crafted packets, aka the “Lucky Thirteen” issue.

VULNERABILITY DETAILS:

DESCRIPTION:

CVE-2013-0440
Unspecified vulnerability in IBM Java Runtime Environment allows remote attackers to affect availability via vectors related to JSSE.

The attack does not require local network access nor does it require authentication, but some degree of specialized knowledge and techniques are required. An exploit would not impact the confidentiality of information or the integrity of data, but the availability of the system could be compromised.

CVEID:
CVE-2013-0440

CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See <https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/81799&gt;
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)

CVE-2013-0443
Unspecified vulnerability in IBM Java Runtime Environment allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality and integrity via vectors related to JSSE

The attack does not require local network access nor does it require authentication, but a large degree of specialized knowledge and techniques are required. An exploit may impact the confidentiality of information or the integrity of data, but the availability of the system would not be compromised.

CVEID:
CVE-2013-0443

CVSS Base Score: 4
CVSS Temporal Score: See <https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/81801&gt;
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N)

CVE-2013-0169
The Transport Layer Security protocol does not properly consider timing side-channel attacks, which allows remote attackers to conduct distinguishing attacks and plain-text recovery attacks via statistical analysis of timing data for crafted packets, aka the “Lucky Thirteen” issue. The CVSS score is based on IBM X-Force rankings, which sets the access complexity for this vulnerability as Medium.

The attack does not require local network access nor does it require authentication, but some degree of specialized knowledge and techniques are required. An exploit may impact the confidentiality of information but the integrity of data, or the availability of the system would not be compromised.

CVEID:
CVE-2013-0169

CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See <https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/81902&gt;
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N)
