Action Needed March 3, 2023: Identity Router (IDR) Patch Update

RSA identified an issue with the patch update that impacted a small subset of our customers who use IDR RADIUS.

• This issue impacted customers who use IDR RADIUS in conjunction with self-signed certificates and who do not have IDR SSO enabled.
• Customers who do not meet all these criteria were not impacted.

In an abundance of caution, we temporarily halted availability of the patch update earlier this week. We are making an updated version of the patch available today Friday, March 3rd, 2023. The Default Upgrade Date remains March 4th, 2023, although you may optionally override this for your own environment. If you have already applied the patch, you do not need to take any further action.

Best practices for all IDR Customers:

• RSA recommends deploying multiple IDRs in a cluster to avoid downtime during upgrades.
  • If you have only one IDR, there will be a short outage as a reboot is required. Please schedule your update accordingly.
  • If you have more than one IDR, each IDR will update individually. Your users should not experience any downtime.
• RSA recommends testing upgrades in your staging or other non-production environment.
  • If possible, please test IDR upgrades in your staging environment prior to the default upgrade date.
  • This provides additional safeguards so that, should any unforeseen issues arise, you will be able to override the default upgrade date to allow time for additional testing and remediation.

Summary

RSA has become aware of two vulnerabilities in ClamAV, which is an installed, third-party component of RSA Authentication Manager and RSA Identity Router. These issues were reported as vulnerabilities CVE-2023-20032 and CVE-2023-20052.

Affected Components

The following components are affected by CVE-2023-20032 and CVE-2023-20052:

• RSA Authentication Manager
• RSA Identity Router

Usage and Risks

Both Authentication Manager and the Identity Router run the SuSE Enterprise Linux Server Operating System and include the ClamAV packages tested and provided by SuSE.

Authentication Manager

• ClamAV is pre-installed as a convenience, but not configured or enabled by default and is not a required component of Authentication Manager. However, some may have chosen to enable and configure ClamAV.

Identity Router

• Non FedRAMP customers: ClamAV is configured to run weekly scans of the file system.
• FedRAMP customers: The ClamAV daemon is enabled and running. File system scans are run at the discretion of the administrator.

Resolution Plan

Authentication Manager

• RSA Customer Support has instructions on manually updating ClamAV packages prior to installing the next patch.
• RSA will include the updated ClamAV packages in RSA Authentication Manager 8.7 Patch 3.

Identity Router

• The updated ClamAV package is now available from SuSE. RSA has updated the Identity Router with this new fix. To update the Identity Router, you may select a date between now and March 18, 2023 to apply. If you do not select a date, Identity Router will auto-update on March 4, 2023.
