IBM Virtualization Engine TS7700 is vulnerable to various cryptographic attacks due to use of IBM® SDK Java™ Technology Edition, Version 8 (CVE-2023-30441). The Java SDK is used by the TS7700 to provide the Management Interface, to perform cache management, and to provide Transparent Cloud Tiering. IBM Virtualization Engine TS7700 has addressed the applicable CVE.
CVEID:CVE-2023-30441
**DESCRIPTION:**IBM Runtime Environment, Java Technology Edition IBMJCEPlus and JSSE components could expose sensitive information using a combination of flaws and configurations.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/253188 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)
Affected Product(s) | Version(s) |
---|---|
IBM System Storage Virtualization Engine TS7700 | 3957-VEC |
IBM System Storage Virtualization Engine TS7700 | 3957-VED |
IBM System Storage Virtualization Engine TS7700 | 3948-VED |
All versions of microcode for the IBM Virtualization Engine TS7700 (3957-VEC, 3957-VED, and 3948-VED) prior to and including the following are affected:
Machine Type | Model | Release | Version |
---|---|---|---|
3957 | VEC | R5.1 | 8.51.2.12 |
R5.2 Phase 1 | 8.52.103.23 | ||
VED | R5.1 | 8.51.2.12 | |
R5.2 Phase 1 | 8.52.103.23 | ||
R5.2 Phase 2 | 8.52.200.111 | ||
R5.3 | 8.53.1.21 | ||
3948 | VED | R5.3 | 8.53.1.21 |
IBM strongly recommends addressing the vulnerability now by visiting <https://tape.ibmrcl.enterpriseappointments.com/v2/> or contacting IBM Service at 1-800-IBM-SERV to arrange an upgrade to the latest microcode version followed by the installation of the appropriate VTD_EXEC as needed. Minimum microcode versions are shown below:
Machine Type | Model | Release | Fix |
---|---|---|---|
3957 | VEC | R5.1 | Upgrade to 8.51.2.12 + VTD_EXEC.269 |
R5.2 Phase 1 | Upgrade to 8.52.102.13 + VTD_EXEC.269 | ||
- OR - | |||
Upgrade to 8.52.103.23 + VTD_EXEC.269 | |||
VED | R5.1 | Upgrade to 8.51.2.12 + VTD_EXEC.269 | |
R5.2 Phase 1 | Upgrade to 8.52.102.13 + VTD_EXEC.269 | ||
- OR - | |||
Upgrade to 8.52.103.23 + VTD_EXEC.269 | |||
R5.2 Phase 2 | Upgrade to 8.53.0.63 + VTD_EXEC.269 (see NOTE below) | ||
- OR - | |||
Upgrade to 8.53.1.21 + VTD_EXEC.269 (see NOTE below) | |||
R5.3 | Upgrade to 8.53.0.63 + VTD_EXEC.269 | ||
- OR - | |||
Upgrade to 8.53.1.21 + VTD_EXEC.269 | |||
3948 | VED | R5.3 | Upgrade to 8.53.0.63 + VTD_EXEC.269 |
- OR - | |||
Upgrade to 8.53.1.21 + VTD_EXEC.269 |
NOTE: R5.3 requires 128GB of memory. 3957-VED needs to be upgraded to 128GB of memory (FC 3479, 64GB DDR4 memory upgrade for P9 based VED), whereas 3948-VED includes 128GB memory as default.
The minimum VTD_EXEC version is shown below:
VTD_EXEC Package | Version |
---|---|
VTD_EXEC.269 | v2.03 |
Although IBM recommends that you upgrade to the fixes identified above, you can mitigate, but not eliminate the risk of these vulnerabilities by restricting physical and network access to the TS7700 to authorized users and IBM Service Personnel only.
