IBM Flex System Chassis Management Module has addressed the applicable CVEs including the “DROWN: Decrypting RSA with Obsolete and Weakened eNcryption” vulnerability.
Vulnerability Details:
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-0800
Description: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions. By using a server that supports SSLv2 and EXPORT cipher suites as a Bleichenbacher RSA padding oracle, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to decrypt TLS sessions between clients and non-vulnerable servers. This vulnerability is also known as the DROWN attack.
CVSS Base Score: 7.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See <http://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/111139> for current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N)
CVE-ID: CVE-2016-0705
Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a double-free error when parsing DSA private keys. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base Score: 3.7

You should verify applying this fix does not cause any compatibility issues.
IBM recommends that the same certificate should ONLY be shared with identical server configuration and software. If the same certificate were shared with different server(s) configuration or software, IBM recommends replacing the different server(s) with unique certificates to protect against the DROWN exposure.
