Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Novell NetWare version 6.5 Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES)

Description The SSL server implementation in NILE.NLM sometimes selects a weak cipher instead of an available stronger cipher. This makes it easier for remote attackers to sniff and decrypt an SSL protected session.

Recommendations For Novell NetWare version 6.5, consider configuring the SSL server to prioritize stronger ciphers. For Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES), restrict the use of weak ciphers in the SSL server implementation until a fix is available.
