The Remote Client and change management integrations in IBM Rational ClearCase 7.1.x, 8.0.0.x before 8.0.0.18, and 8.0.1.x before 8.0.1.11 do not properly validate hostnames in X.509 certificates from SSL servers, which allows remote attackers to spoof servers and obtain sensitive information or modify network traffic via a crafted certificate. IBM X-Force ID: 106715.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2015-5039 affects IBM Rational ClearCase Remote Client and change management integrations. These clients may accept an SSL certificate even when the certificate hostname does not match the server, enabling server impersonation. Successful abuse could expose sensitive data or allow network traffic modification. Exposure is most likely where legacy IBM Rational ClearCase clients or integrations still connect to SSL-enabled ClearCase or change management servers, especially across shared, remote, or untrusted networks. The source bundle does not identify affected CPEs or deployment prevalence. Treat this as a legacy tooling trust issue with moderate business urgency. Prioritize if ClearCase remains in production, carries sensitive source or change data, or is accessed remotely. Evidence does not support emergency action based on active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected 8.0.0.x deployments to 8.0.0.18 or later.; Upgrade affected 8.0.1.x deployments to 8.0.1.11 or later.; Check IBM guidance for supported remediation on ClearCase 7.1.x..
