IBM DB2 10.1 < Fix Pack 5 Multiple Vulnerabilities (Bar Mitzvah)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 84826

Language:

Synopsis

The remote database server is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its version, the installation of IBM DB2 10.1 running on the remote host is prior to Fix Pack 5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- An unspecified flaw exists in the monitoring or audit facility due to passwords being stored when handling specially crafted commands. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this to access sensitive information. (CVE-2014-0919)

- A stack-based buffer overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling crafted ALTER MODULE statements. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-3094)

- A flaw exists when handling a crafted UNION clause in a subquery of a SELECT statement. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2014-3095)

- A denial of service vulnerability exists when immediate AUTO_REVAL is enabled. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this, via a crafted ALTER TABLE statement, to crash the server. (CVE-2014-6159)

- A denial of service vulnerability exists when handling an identity column within a crafted ALTER TABLE statement. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to crash the server. (CVE-2014-6209)

- A denial of service vulnerability exists when handling multiple ALTER TABLE statements specifying the same column. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to crash the server. (CVE-2014-6210)

- A flaw exists that is triggered when handling specially crafted XML queries. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this to cause a consumption of resources, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2014-8901)

- An unspecified error exists during the handling of SELECT statements with XML/XSLT functions that allows a remote attacker to gain access to arbitrary files.
(CVE-2014-8910)

- A flaw exists in the IBM Global Security Kit (GSKit) when handling RSA temporary keys in a non-export RSA key exchange ciphersuite. A man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit this to downgrade the session security to use weaker EXPORT_RSA ciphers, thus allowing the attacker to more easily monitor or tamper with the encrypted stream.
(CVE-2015-0138)

- A flaw exists in the LUW component when handling SQL statements with unspecified Scaler functions. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2015-0157)

- An unspecified flaw in the General Parallel File System (GPFS) allows a local attacker to gain root privileges.
(CVE-2015-0197)

- A flaw exists in the General Parallel File System (GPFS), related to certain cipherList configurations, that allows a remote attacker, using specially crafted data, to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary programs with root privileges. (CVE-2015-0198)

- A denial of service vulnerability exists in the General Parallel File System (GPFS) that allows a local attacker to corrupt kernel memory by sending crafted ioctl character device calls to the mmfslinux kernel module.
(CVE-2015-0199)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the automated maintenance feature. An attacker with elevated privileges can exploit this issue by manipulating a stored procedure, resulting in the disclosure of arbitrary files owned by the DB2 fenced ID on UNIX/Linux or the administrator on Windows. (CVE-2015-1883)

- A flaw exists in the Data Movement feature when handling specially crafted queries. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to delete database rows from a table without having the appropriate privileges.
(CVE-2015-1922)

- An unspecified flaw exists when handling SQL statements with LUW Scaler functions. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to run arbitrary code, under the privileges of the DB2 instance owner, or to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2015-1935)

- A security feature bypass vulnerability exists, known as Bar Mitzvah, due to improper combination of state data with key data by the RC4 cipher algorithm during the initialization phase. A man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit this, via a brute-force attack using LSB values, to decrypt the traffic. (CVE-2015-2808)

- A flaw exists when handling 'SUM' or 'GROUP BY' queries with a 'SUBSELECT' that contains 'unnest'. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition.

- A use-after-free error exists in the CLI application due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling client disconnects. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.

- A denial of service vulnerability exists due to an unspecified flaw in the sqldRemoveCachedTableEntry() function. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to crash a DB2 instance.

- An out-of-bounds write error exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input when handling the Partial Aggregation Operators (PED, PEA). A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in a denial of service condition.

- An integrity flaw exists due to insecure file permissions for the STMM log file. A local attacker can exploit this to manipulate the logs.

- A denial of service vulnerability exists in the sqlex_find_group() function when returning a cumulative group name greater than 64K. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to crash the server.

- A flaw exists in the sqlsBinSortPopulateRecPointers() function due to improper validation of user-supplied input when performing resettable sorts. A remote, authenticated attacker can exploit this to corrupt memory, resulting in a denial of service.

- A flaw exists that is triggered when handling 'INSERT INTO' statements. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to crash DB2 when the target is a generated table created by a values clause containing multiple rows.

- A flaw exists when invoking runstats against a user temporary table when the index clause explicitly specifies index names but omits the index schema name.
An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service.

- A flaw exists in the DRDA communication protocol due to improper parsing of split DRDA messages under certain circumstances. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a large memory overwrite, resulting in a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists due to improper block cipher padding by TLSv1 when using Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode. A remote attacker, via an 'Oracle Padding' side channel attack, can exploit this vulnerability to gain access to sensitive information.
Note that this is a variation of the POODLE attack.
(NO CVE)
