CVE-2015-0533: EMC RSA BSAFE Micro Edition Suite (MES) 4.0.x before 4.0.8 and 4.1.x before 4.1.3 and RSA BSAFE SSL-C 2.8.9...

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw can let a remote SSL server weaken connections using affected RSA BSAFE libraries so traffic loses forward secrecy. That means past captured sessions may be easier to decrypt if long-term keys are later exposed. It is not described as code execution, but it matters for products relying on these older crypto libraries. Exposure is most likely in legacy embedded systems, appliances, or applications that statically or dynamically include the named RSA BSAFE versions for SSL/TLS. The source bundle does not identify specific downstream products or deployment prevalence. Treat this as a targeted legacy cryptography remediation item. It is not documented as actively exploited, but it can weaken confidentiality guarantees in systems that still depend on affected RSA BSAFE libraries. Mitigation focus: Upgrade RSA BSAFE MES to 4.0.8, 4.1.3, or later as applicable.; Replace or update RSA BSAFE SSL-C 2.8.9 or earlier per vendor guidance.; Ask product vendors whether embedded BSAFE components are present and patched..
