Description of Issue: CBC ciphers are vulnerable to CVE-2011-3389 (BEAST Attack). Previous recommendation to mitigate CVE-2011-3389 was to not use CBC ciphers. RC4 ciphers are vulnerable to CVE-2015-2808 (Bar Mitzvah Attack). Current recommendation to mitigate CVE-2015-2808 is to discontinue use of RC4 ciphers. However, the remaining available ciphers are generally CBC ciphers.
Description of Fix: Fixed code to mitigate CVE-2011-3389 (BEAST Attack).
Recommendation: Sterling Connect:Direct for Microsoft Windows by default disables the RC4 stream cipher. If you enabled the RC4 stream cipher you are exposed to the RC4 “Bar Mitzvah” Attack for SSL/TLS. IBM recommends that you review your entire environment to identify other areas where you have enabled the RC4 stream cipher and take appropriate mitigation and remediation actions.
