install.sh in the Embedded WebSphere Application Server (eWAS) 7.0 before FP33 in IBM Tivoli Integrated Portal (TIP) 2.1 and 2.2 sets world-writable permissions for the installRoot directory tree, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse program.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-3020 is a local privilege-escalation issue in IBM Tivoli Integrated Portal using embedded WebSphere Application Server. During installation, permissions could make the installation tree world-writable, allowing a local user to plant a malicious program and gain higher privileges. Exposure is likely limited to systems running IBM Tivoli Integrated Portal 2.1 or 2.2 with embedded WebSphere Application Server 7.0 before FP33, especially where untrusted local users or shared administrative hosts exist. Treat this as a targeted operational hardening item, not an emergency internet-wide threat. Prioritize if the affected platform is still in use on shared servers or systems with non-admin local users. Mitigation focus: Confirm whether IBM TIP 2.1 or 2.2 with eWAS 7.0 is installed.; Upgrade eWAS 7.0 to FP33 or later where applicable.; Review IBM support guidance for product-specific remediation details..
