HPSBNS03625 rev.1 - HPE NonStop Application Server for Java (NSASJ) running

SSL/TLS, Remote Disclosure of Information

NOTICE: The information in this Security Bulletin should be acted upon as

soon as possible.

VULNERABILITY SUMMARY

NonStop Application Server for Java (NSASJ) has addressed the cross-protocol

Attack on TLS using SSLv2 also known as "DROWN". This vulnerability could be

exploited remotely resulting in disclosure of information.

Note: NSASJ configurations that have enabled SSL/TLS are vulnerable if

SSLv2 is enabled or they share private keys with systems that have it

enabled.

RESOLUTION

HPE has released the following information to resolve the vulnerability in

NonStop Application Server for Java (NSASJ).

To avoid the DROWN vulnerability, the SSLv2 protocol in NSASJ must explicitly

disabled.

The security protocol support in NSASJ is applied through security Realm

settings or through connectors that expose the interface. Disable the SSLv2

protocol either in the connector configuration or the security domain

configuration as shown below.

**Secure Connector HTTPS and TLS/SSL**

- To enable TLS/SSL support for a particular instance of a connector, the

secure attribute must be set to true. TLS/SSL support is enabled in the

default NSASJ HTTPS connector configuration.

- Perform the following steps to complete the TLS/SSL setup:

1. Create a certificate keystore:

$JAVA_HOME/bin/keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA

- -keystore /path/to/my/keystore

Enter a password when prompted.

2. Add a SSL tag in the connector configuration.

If the protocol attribute is not specified, SSLv2 is supported by

default. To disable SSLv2, specify the protocol attribute and do not include

SSLv2.

The following is a sample configuration that enables only TLSv1.2:

<connector name="https" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="https" socket

binding="https" secure="true">

<ssl key-alias="tomcat" protocol="TLSv1.2" password="XXXX"

certificate-key-file="/path/to/my/keystore"/>

</connector>

Due to protocol weaknesses, HPE also recommends to disable SSLv3 and

TLSv1.0 by excluding them from the protocol list.

**Applying security restrictions through Security Domains and Realms**

- Restricting access to all containers and management interfaces of NSASJ

can be done by configuring security domains in appropriate Realms configured

in domain.xml and host.xml files.

- Each Realm has a server-identities tag which has an ssl element. The

protocols attribute of this tag must be explicitly set to a protocol list

that does not include SSLv2 in order to disable it.

The following is a sample configuration that enables only TLS 1.2:

<management>

<security-realms>

<security-realm name="ManagementRealm">

<server-identities>

<ssl protocol="TLSv1.2">

<keystore ..../>

</ssl>

</server-identities>

...
