Security Bulletin: Vulnerabilities in httpd affect Power Hardware Management Console

Description

## Summary httpd is used by Power Hardware Management Console (HMC). HMC has addressed the applicable CVEs. ## Vulnerability Details CVEID: CVE-2017-9798 DESCRIPTION: Apache HTTP Server could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw in the HTTP OPTIONS method, aka Optionsbleed. By sending an OPTIONS HTTP request, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information. CVSS Base Score: 7.5 CVSS Temporal Score: See [_https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/132159_](<https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/132159>) for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) CVEID: CVE-2017-12171 DESCRIPTION: A regression error in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.9 within Apache HTTP Server could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the improper parsing of comments in the "Allow" and "Deny" configuration lines. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass security restrictions and allow any client to gain access to restricted HTTP resource. CVSS Base Score: 6.5 CVSS Temporal Score: See [_https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/133645_](<https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/133645>) for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N) CVEID: CVE-2017-9788 DESCRIPTION: Apache HTTPD is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the failure to properly initialize memory used to process ''Digest'' type HTTP Authorization headers by the mod_auth_digest component. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information or cause a segmentation fault. CVSS Base Score: 6.5 CVSS Temporal Score: See [_https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/128482_](<https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/128482>) for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L) CVEID: CVE-2017-7679 DESCRIPTION: Apache HTTPD could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a buffer overread in mod_mime. By sending a specially crafted Content-Type response header, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read one byte past the end of a buffer. CVSS Base Score: 5.3 CVSS Temporal Score: See [_https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/127420_](<https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/127420>) for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) CVEID: CVE-2017-3169 DESCRIPTION: Apache HTTPD is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a NULL pointer dereference in mod_ssl. By sending a specially crafted HTTP request to an HTTPS port, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. CVSS Base Score: 5.3 CVSS Temporal Score: See [_https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/127417_](<https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/127417>) for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L) CVEID: CVE-2017-3167 DESCRIPTION: Apache HTTPD could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the use of the ap_get_basic_auth_pw() function by third-party modules outside of the authentication phase. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass authentication requirements. CVSS Base Score: 5.3 CVSS Temporal Score: See [_https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/127416_](<https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/127416>) for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N) CVEID: CVE-2017-7668 DESCRIPTION: Apache HTTPD is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a buffer overread in the ap_find_token() function. By sending a specially crafted sequence of request headers, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a segmentation fault.
