What it is about

Go ist eine quelloffene Programmiersprache. Ein lokaler Angreifer kann eine Schwachstelle in der Golang Go Komponente "FIPS OpenSSL" ausnutzen, um einen nicht näher spezifizierten Angriff durchzuführen.

Under what conditions?

Only with access to the device or an account on it. Often the second step after a phishing email.

What can happen in the worst case

An attacker could use the vulnerability to

  • einen nicht näher spezifizierten Angriff durchzuführen

Am I affected?

Affected according to the BSI:

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux
  • Oracle Linux
  • RESF Rocky Linux
  • Golang Go FIPS OpenSSL
  • IBM Spectrum Protect Plus <10.1.6.4
  • Red Hat JBoss A-MQ Streams 2

The installed version is usually shown under “Help → About” or in the device’s admin interface.

What helps?

Update to at least:

  • IBM Spectrum Protect Plus 10.1.6.4

Is the vulnerability already being exploited?

None of the CVEs is in the CISA catalogue of exploited vulnerabilities. That does not mean there are no attacks, only that none are documented.
