UPGRADING TDI JRE TO JAVA 1.6 SR16 FP3 + FREAK iFix BECAUSE OF JAVA FREAK VULNERABILITY

Details:
========
This Limited Availability Interim Fix contains JRE fix for Java FREAK

CVE-2015-0138 : Java Freak Vulnerability details
A vulnerability in various IBM SSL/TLS implementations could allow a remote attacker to downgrade the security of certain SSL/TLS connections.
An IBM SSL/TLS client implementation could accept the use of an RSA temporary key in a non-export RSA key exchange ciphersuite.
This could allow a remote attacker using man-in-the-middle techniques to facilitate brute-force decryption of TLS/SSL traffic between vulnerable clients and servers.
This vulnerability is also known as the FREAK attack


Prerequisites:
==============
For Tivoli Directory Integrator v7.1.1 : Ensure 7.1.1-TIV-TDI-FP0004 is applied.
For Tivoli Directory Integrator v7.1.0 : Ensure 7.1.0-TIV-TDI-FP0008 is applied.

Platforms:
==========
All supported Platforms

Downloading the Fix:
====================
- Under the Download options section, Click on the "Change Download options" link.
- Set the "Include prerequisites and co-requisite fixes (you can select the ones you need later)" checkbox to true.

Applying the Fix:
=================
- Shutdown TDI.

- Unzip the fix package to a temporary directory. The LA contains platform specific JRE's, copy the .zip or the .tar.gz to respective platforms.

- Extract the .zip /.tar.gz files.

- Copy the jre dir from the extracted .zip / .tar.gz into a dir called jvm.

- Backup the older JVM dir under <TDI_Install_Dir\jvm>. For this, rename the older dir by changing its name to anything other than JVM.

- Replace the existing JVM dir which was backed up earlier with the fix files ( newly created JVM folder ).

- Apply command 'chmod -R 755 JVM' under JVM dir for non windows platform.


Confirming the Fix has been applied successfully:
=================================================
JAVA FREAK vulnerability will be resolved.
