CVE-2015-7449: IBM Rational CLM suite may expose data through weak encryption

CVE-2015-7449 · published 8 years ago
Summary

Several versions of IBM Rational Collaborative Lifecycle Management, Quality Manager, Team Concert, Requirements Composer, and DOORS Next Generation use weak encryption that can let a local user see sensitive information. Upgrade to the latest iFix releases (e.g., 4.0.7 iFix10, 5.0.2 iFix15, 6.0.1 iFix5, 6.0.2 iFix2, or later) to secure the data.
