IBM WebSphere Commerce up to 7.0.0.7 Encryption Algorithm information disclosure

CVSS Meta Temp Score
CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.
Current Exploit Price (≈)
Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.
CTI Interest Score
Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in IBM WebSphere Commerce up to 7.0.0.7 (Application Server Software). It has been classified as problematic. This affects an unknown code block of the component Encryption Algorithm. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a information disclosure vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-200. The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:

IBM WebSphere Commerce Enterprise 5.6.x through 5.6.1.5, 6.0.x through 6.0.0.11, and 7.0.x through 7.0.0.7 does not use a suitable encryption algorithm for storefront web requests, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a padding oracle attack that targets certain UTF-8 processing of the krypto parameter, and leverages unspecified browser access or traffic-log access.

The weakness was released 06/14/2013 by Timothy D. Morgan as swg21640597 as confirmed bulletin (IBM Knowledge Base). It is possible to read the advisory at www-01.ibm.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2013-0523 since 12/16/2012. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not publicly available. The attack technique deployed by this issue is T1592 according to MITRE ATT&CK.

Applying the patch APAR JR46386 is able to eliminate this problem. A possible mitigation has been published immediately after the disclosure of the vulnerability.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (82541), SecurityFocus (BID 60596†), OSVDB (94389†) and Secunia (SA53771†). Be aware that VulDB is the high quality source for vulnerability data.
