Title:IBM Db2 Multiple Vulnerabilities (Oct 2010)
Summary:IBM DB2 is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.
Description:Summary:
IBM DB2 is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.

Vulnerability Insight:
Multiple flaws are due to:

- An error in 'Install' component, which enforces an unintended limit on
password length, which makes it easier for attackers to obtain access via
a brute-force attack.

- A buffer overflow in the 'Administration Server' component, which allows an
attacker to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

- An error in 'DRDA Services' component, which allows remote authenticated
users to cause a denial of service.

- The 'Engine Utilities' component uses world-writable permissions for the
'sqllib/cfg/db2sprf' file, which allows local users to gain privileges by
modifying this file.

- A memory leak in the 'Relational Data Services' component, when the
connection concentrator is enabled.

- The 'Query Compiler, Rewrite, Optimizer' component, allows remote
authenticated users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption).

- The 'Security' component logs 'AUDIT' events by using a USERID and an
AUTHID value corresponding to the instance owner, instead of a USERID and
an AUTHID value corresponding to the logged-in user account.

- The 'Net Search Extender' (NSE) implementation in the Text Search component
does not properly handle an alphanumeric Fuzzy search.

- The audit facility in the 'Security' component uses instance-level audit
settings to capture connection (aka CONNECT and AUTHENTICATION) events in
certain circumstances in which database-level audit settings were intended.

Vulnerability Impact:
Successful exploitation will allow attackers to bypass security restrictions,
gain knowledge of sensitive information or cause a denial of service.

Affected Software/OS:
IBM Db2 versions 9.5 before Fix Pack 6a.

Solution:
Update Db2 version 9.5 Fix Pack 6a.
