IBM General Parallel File System 3.5 < 3.5.0.17 Multiple OpenSSL Vulnerabilities (Heartbleed)
Medium Nessus Plugin ID 74104
Synopsis
A clustered file system on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to OpenSSL.
Description
A version of IBM General Parallel File System (GPFS) prior to 3.5.0.17 is installed on the remote host. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities related to OpenSSL:
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists due to a flaw in the OpenSSL library, due to an implementation error in ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm). An attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability to recover ECDSA nonces. (CVE-2014-0076)
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists due to a flaw in the OpenSSL library, commonly known as the Heartbleed bug. An attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability repeatedly to read up to 64KB of memory from the device. (CVE-2014-0160)
Solution
Upgrade to 3.5.0.17 or later.
