Oracle Security Alert #37
Dated: 1 August, 2002
Updated: 5 August, 2002
OpenSSL Security Vulnerability
Products affected:
Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) shipped with the database up to and including
version 9.2.0.
Oracle9iAS versions earlier than 9.0.2, including all versions 1.0.2.x.
CorporateTime Outlook Connector (CTOC), versions 3.1, 3.1.1, 3.1.2,
and 3.3 on Windows 98, NT, 2K, XP.
Description:
There are remotely exploitable buffer overflow vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
versions prior to 0.9.6e.
These vulnerabilities may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary
code or perform a denial-of-service (DoS) attack.
These problems are described in the OpenSSL Security Advisory [30
July 2002]:
http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20020730.txt
These problems are also described in CERT Advisory CA-2002-23:
http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-23.html
Workarounds:
There are no workarounds against the potential denial-of-service attack.
Disabling SSL should prevent remote execution of code.
Users of Corporate Time Outlook Connector can disable TLS by adding
the following section to the CTOC.INI file:
[CTOC]
allow-tls=FALSE
NOTE:
Disabling SSL or TLS will result in data being transmitted in the clear
(i.e. unencrypted), including passwords when using Basic Authentication.
Patch Information:
Patches will be made available on MetaLink for Patch 2492925 as scheduled
