CVE-2014-6221

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

The MSCAPI/MSCNG interface implementation in GSKit in IBM Rational ClearCase in versions 7.1.2.x before 7.1.2.17, 8.0.0.x before 8.0.0.14, and 8.0.1.x before 8.0.1.7 does not properly generate random numbers. This makes it easier for remote attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms via unspecified vectors.

Risk Assessment

Organizations may be exposed to attacks that could lead to the compromise of cryptographically protected data. This increases the risk of loss of confidentiality and integrity of information.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update IBM Rational ClearCase to versions 7.1.2.17, 8.0.0.14, or 8.0.1.7 to mitigate this vulnerability.
