MS13-062 Possible False Positive

Usage and Config Security

IBM, can you investigate whether there is an issue with the relevance in the following Fixlet -

Fixlet: Remote Procedure Call Vulnerability - MS13-062
ID 1829301
Site Vulnerabilities to Windows Systems
Category ACCEPTED
CVE ID CVE-2013-3175
Download Size
Source oval.mitre.org
Source ID OVAL18293
Source Severity High
Source Release Date 3/3/2014

All of my Windows 7 and Win2008R2 systems are reporting as vulnerable to this, yet when I apply the patch downloaded directly from Microsoft it says not applicable on my machines. Is there something wrong in my configuration or are others seeing this as well?

Hello!

While it’s never a bad idea to post things like this on the forum – please note that this is not an official IBM support channel!

If you are looking for assistance fixing a false positive then you’ll want to contact IBM support. That will give you a priority, a case number, and a dedicated IBMer to help you through the issue.

There is a pinned topic: How to ask for IBM product help: PMRs, RFEs, and more that covers how to file a PMR.

Thanks for reporting this issue. It does sound like it could be relevance related.

As @strawgate points out, a PMR is your best option for support from IBM on this issue, but hopefully others will chime in if they see the same thing as well.
