how to address some Vulnerabilities in cisco collaboration apps

engreda22
Level 1
Level 1

Dear All ,

As result of PCI , I have to address vulnerabilities related to cucm , cuc and ccx as listed below

1- OpenSSH < 7.0 Multiple Vulnerabilities :-

OpenSSH contains a vulnerability which can allow a remote attacker to bypass the XSECURITY restrictions when forwarding X11 connections by making use of an ineffective
timeout check.

need to upgrade to ssh >7
2- Triple DES Birthday Attack Vulnerability (Sweet32) :-

The Triple-DES cipher algorithm contains a vulnerability which can allow an attacker to recover secure HTTP cookies when performing a man-in-the-middle attack.

need to Disable Triple-DES Ciphers on the system

 

please let me know how to fix those two vulnerabilities

cucm ver 12.0.1

thanks

What are the CVE identifiers for the vulnerabilities identified? Has Cisco published a PSIRT for that CVE with stated plans how they intend to address it?
https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/publicationListing.x

As for the cipher suites, you can now adjust them in CUCM 12.0 but doing so comes with a big warning that you are responsible for testing/qualifying every component in your solution supports stronger ciphers than the ones you disable. Older phones and gateways will be the most likely problematic points.

Thanks Jonathan for your reply.
The CVE of the first vulnerability is CVE-2015-5352 and recorded in non-Cisco product
https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/viewAlert.x?alertId=41120
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2015-5352
However in PCI scan report it shows in cisco unity and as attached.

 

Also I checked the procedure of changing the cipher suite but it is not applicable in my CM OS
1- From Cisco Unified OS Administration, choose Security > Cipher Management. (this is not available option)
please check attached
