IBM DB2 9.5 through FP10, 9.7 through FP10, 9.8 through FP5, 10.1 through FP4, and 10.5 before FP5 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted XML query.

Versions of IBM DB2 10.1 earlier than Fix Pack 5 are potentially 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)
 - 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)
 - 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)
 - 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)
 - 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.
 - A double-free flaw exists in the CLI application.  The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling client disconnects.  This may allow a remote attacker to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code.
 - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling 'SUM' or 'GROUP' BY queries with a 'SUBSELECT' that contains unnest.  This may allow an attacker to cause the database to crash.
 - An unspecified flaw exists in the 'sqldRemoveCachedTableEntry()' function that may allow an authenticated attacker to cause a DB2 instance to crash.
 - A flaw exists that is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling Partial Aggregation operators (PED, PEA).  This may allow an authenticated attacker to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service.
 - A flaw exists that is due to the program setting insecure 666 permissions for log files.  This may allow a local attacker to manipulate logs.
 - A flaw exists in the 'sqlex_find_group()' function in the handling of group names.  This issue is triggered when returning a cumulative group name length greater than 64k for a user id.  This may allow an authenticated attacker to crash the server.
 - A flaw exists in the 'sqlsBinSortPopulateRecPointers()' function.  The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when performing resettable sorts.  This may allow an authenticated attacker to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service.
 - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling generated tables with 'INSERT INTO' statements.  This may allow an authenticated attacker to cause DB2 to crash.
 - A flaw exists that is triggered when invoking runstats against a user temporary table while the index clause explicitly specifies index names while omitting the index scheme name.  This may allow an authenticated attacker to cause a crash.
 - A flaw exists in the DRDA communication protocol that is triggered during the handling of messages.  This may allow an authenticated remote attacker to trigger a large memory overwrite.
 - A flaw exists that is due to the program insecurely loading binaries planted in a location that a SETGID or SETUID binary would execute. This may allow a local attacker to gain elevated, root privileges.

According to its version, the installation of IBM DB2 9.7 running on the remote host is prior to Fix Pack 11. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     monitoring and audit features that occurs when handling     a specially crafted command. An authenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive     information. (CVE-2014-0919)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered during the handling of a     specially crafted ALTER TABLE statement on an identity     column. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to cause the server to terminate, resulting in a     denial of service condition. (CVE-2014-6209)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered during the handling of     multiple ALTER TABLE statements on the same column. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause     the server to terminate, resulting in a denial of     service condition. (CVE-2014-6210)

  - A man-in-the-middle (MitM) information disclosure     vulnerability, known as POODLE, exists due to the TLS     server not verifying block cipher padding when using a     cipher suite that employs a block cipher such as AES and     DES. The lack of padding checking can allow encrypted     TLS traffic to be decrypted. This vulnerability could     allow for the decryption of HTTPS traffic by an     unauthorized third party. (CVE-2014-8730)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling a     specially crafted XML query. An authenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to cause excessive consumption     of CPU resources, resulting in a denial of service     condition. (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 security feature bypass vulnerability, known as FREAK     (Factoring attack on RSA-EXPORT Keys), exists in the IBM     Global Security Kit (GSKit) due to the support of weak     EXPORT_RSA cipher suites with keys less than or equal to     512 bits. A man-in-the-middle attacker may be able to     downgrade the SSL/TLS connection to use EXPORT_RSA     cipher suites which can be factored in a short amount of     time, allowing the attacker to intercept and decrypt the     traffic. (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)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists when processing     an ECParameters structure due to an infinite loop that     occurs when a specified curve is over a malformed binary     polynomial field. A remote attacker can exploit this to     perform a denial of service against any system that     processes public keys, certificate requests, or     certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers     with client authentication enabled. (CVE-2015-1788)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     automated maintenance feature. An attacker with elevated     privileges, by manipulating a stored procedure, can     exploit this issue to disclose 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)

  - A flaw exists when handling SQL statements having     unspecified 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 denial of service vulnerability exists in the query     compiler QGM due to improper handling of duplicate reloc     entry queries. An authenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this to crash the database.

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the     SQLEX_FIND_GROUP() function due to improper handling of     group name results. An authenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to crash the database.

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the query     compiler QGM due to improper handling of DBCLOB column     types. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to crash the database.

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the     Relational Data Services component in the     SQLRA_GET_SECT_INFO_BY_CURSOR_NAME() function due to     improper handling of stored procedures. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to crash     the database.
