TITLE

EMC RSA BSAFE Micro Edition Suite and RSA BSAFE SSL-J Vulnerability in which important information is obtained

DESCRIPTION

EMC RSA BSAFE Micro Edition Suite (MES) 4.0.x before 4.0.6 and RSA BSAFE SSL-J before 6.1.4 do not ensure that a server's X.509 certificate is the same during renegotiation as it was before renegotiation, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information or modify TLS session data via a "triple handshake attack.". RSA BSAFE Micro Edition Suite and SSL-J are prone to a security-bypass vulnerability because it fails to properly validate SSL certificates. Multiple EMC Products are prone to security-bypass vulnerability. Successfully exploiting this issue may allow attackers to obtain sensitive information by conducting a man-in-the-middle attack. This may lead to other attacks. EMC RSA BSAFE is a security software product of EMC, which supports encryption algorithms, certificate chain verification and Transport Layer Security (TLS) cipher suites, etc., to help users achieve various security goals of their applications . RSA BSAFE SSL-J is one of the SSL toolkits. There are security vulnerabilities in EMC RSA BSAFE MES versions 4.0.0 to 4.0.5 and RSA BSAFE SSL-J 6.1.2 and earlier versions. The vulnerability stems from the fact that the program does not correctly verify the X.509 certificate on the server side. See original advisory for more details: https://www.secure-resumption.com/ MES 4.1, MES 4.0.6 and SSL-J 6.1.4 are designed to include a fix which disallows a change of server certificate when renegotiating. Recommendation: RSA recommends that customers on MES 4.0.x upgrade to MES 4.0.6 or to MES 4.1 and those on SSL-J 5.1.x and SSL-J 6.x upgrade to SSL-J 6.1.4 at the earliest opportunity. Credits: The Triple Handshake attack was originally found by Antoine Delignat-Lavaud, Karthikeyan Bhargavan and Alfredo Pironti from the Prosecco research team at INRIA Paris-Rocquencourt.
