Version Tested: Sun Application Server 9.0_0.1 (build b02-p01) Technical Description of the vulnerability: In the process of performing application security testing of software on Sun box, the Sun Admin Console was used to manipulate/change SSL Ciphers. Changes to the ORB listeners (SSL and SSL_MutualAuth) via the admin UI did not effectively change them in the software. Upon restarting the services/domain all of the SSL settings remain with the default - which enables all protocols and ciphers. Summary: Despite what is check/unchecked in the SUN admin UI of the AppServer, it doesn't actually affect the SSL Settings.
Vulnerability: Broken linkage between Sun Admin Console and SSL Library/service. Tested using: Foundstone SSLDigger, SPI Server Analyzer, SSL Diagnostics and WireShark ___________________ Fred Donovan, CISSP Donovan Networks LLC 4701 Innovation Drive Lincoln, NE 68521 (402) 323-0730 (402) 730-5042 www.donovannetworks.com
