"According to its version, the installation of IBM DB2 10.5 running on
the remote host is prior to Fix Pack 7. It is, therefore, affected by
the following vulnerabilities :

  - A security feature bypass vulnerability, known as FREAK
    (Factoring attack on RSA-EXPORT Keys), exists due to the
    support of weak EXPORT_RSA cipher suites with keys less
    than or equal to 512 bits. A man-in-the-middle attacker
    may be able to downgrade the SSL/TLS connection to use
    EXPORT_RSA cipher suites which can be factored in a
    short amount of time, allowing the attacker to intercept
    and decrypt the traffic. (CVE-2015-0204)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists when processing
    an ECParameters structure due to an infinite loop that
    occurs when a specified curve is over a malformed binary
    polynomial field. A remote attacker can exploit this to
    perform a denial of service against any system that
    processes public keys, certificate requests, or
    certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers
    with client authentication enabled. (CVE-2015-1788)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists due to an
    untrusted search path flaw. A local attacker can exploit
    this, via a specially crafted library that is loaded by
    a setuid or setgid process, to gain elevated privileges
    on the system. (CVE-2015-1947)

  - A security feature bypass vulnerability exists, known as
    Bar Mitzvah, due to improper combination of state data
    with key data by the RC4 cipher algorithm during the
    initialization phase. A man-in-the-middle attacker can
    exploit this, via a brute-force attack using LSB values,
    to decrypt the traffic. (CVE-2015-2808)

  - A man-in-the-middle vulnerability, known as Logjam,
    exists due to a flaw in the SSL/TLS protocol. A remote
    attacker can exploit this flaw to downgrade connections
    using ephemeral Diffie-Hellman key exchange to 512-bit
    export-grade cryptography. (CVE-2015-4000)

Note that several of these vulnerabilities are due to the bundled
GSKit component and the embedded FCM 4.1 libraries.");
