Multiple vulnerabilities in IBM Planning Analytics Local

1) Information disclosure

EUVDB-ID: #VU1962

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-0702

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Information exposure

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local attacker to decrypt data passed via encrypted SSL connection.

The vulnerability exists in the MOD_EXP_CTIME_COPY_FROM_PREBUF() function in crypto/bn/bn_exp.c. The application does not properly consider cache-bank access times during modular exponentiation, which makes it easier for local users to discover RSA keys by running a crafted application on the same Intel Sandy Bridge CPU core as a victim and leveraging cache-bank conflicts.

The vulnerability was dubbed "CacheBleed".

3) Information disclosure

EUVDB-ID: #VU5442

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 1.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3732

CWE-ID: CWE-310 - Cryptographic Issues

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to propagating error in the x86_64 Montgomery squaring procedure. A remote attacker with access to unpatched vulnerable system that uses a shared private key with Diffie-Hellman (DH) parameters set can gain unauthorized access to sensitive private key information.

According to vendor’s advisory, this vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in real-world attacks, as it requires significant resources and online access to an unpatched system using the target private key in a scenario with persistent DH parameters and a private key that is shared between multiple clients.

Vulnerability exploitation against RSA and DSA as a result of this defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely.
