                            HP Support Information Digests

    ===============================================================================
    o Security Bulletin Digest Split
       ------------------------------

       The security bulletins digest has been split into multiple digests
       based on the operating system (HP-UX, MPE/iX, and HP Secure OS
       Software for Linux). You will continue to receive all security
       bulletin digests unless you choose to update your subscriptions.
       
       To update your subscriptions, use your browser to access the
       IT Resource Center on the World Wide Web at:

         http://www.itresourcecenter.hp.com/

       Under the Maintenance and Support Menu, click on the "more..." link.
       Then use the 'login' link at the left side of the screen to login
       using your IT Resource Center User ID and Password.

       Under the notifications section (near the bottom of the page), select
       Support Information Digests.

       To subscribe or unsubscribe to a specific security bulletin digest,
       select or unselect the checkbox beside it. Then click the
       "Update Subscriptions" button at the bottom of the page.

    o IT Resource Center World Wide Web Service
       ---------------------------------------------------

       If you subscribed through the IT Resource Center and would
       like to be REMOVED from this mailing list, access the
       IT Resource Center on the World Wide Web at:

         http://www.itresourcecenter.hp.com/

       Login using your IT Resource Center User ID and Password.
       Then select Support Information Digests (located under
       Maintenance and Support). You may then unsubscribe from the
       appropriate digest.

       HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY SECURITY BULLETIN: #0198,
       Originally issued: 10 July 2002
     -----------------------------------------------------------------

    The information in the following Security Bulletin should be acted
    upon as soon as possible. Hewlett-Packard Company will not be
    liable for any consequences to any customer resulting from customer's
    failure to fully implement instructions in this Security Bulletin as
    soon as possible.

     ------------------------------------------------------------------
    PROBLEM: RFC-Netbios panics when it receives a malformed UDP
              packet on port 139.

    PLATFORM: HP 9000 Servers running HP-UX release 11.00, and
              11.11 only.

    DAMAGE: Possible denial-of-service.

    SOLUTION: Apply the appropriate patch for HP-UX releases:

                       PHNE_26988 11.00 and 11.11

    MANUAL ACTIONS: none

    AVAILABILITY: The patch is available now on itrc.hp.com.

     ------------------------------------------------------------------

    A. Background
        Hewlett-Packard Company has learned of a defect in the use of
        the Advanced Server/9000 for HP-UX (AS/U), versions B.04.05,
        B.04.06, B.04.07, B.04.08, and B.04.09.

    B. Fixing the problem
       The recommended solution is to retrieve and install the
       appropriate RFC-NETBIOS cumulative patch Jun2002:
                       PHNE_26988 11.00 and 11.11

       NOTE: A reboot will be necessary.

    --------------------------------------------------------- HP TopTools Remote Control Card ---------------------------------------------------------

    TopTools Remote Control (TTRC) card, rev. 2.0. (product P1218A) has an SNMP MIB defect. This is fixed in firmware version B.03.02 available at:

    http://h20004.www2.hp.com/keeper_rnotes/bsdmatrix/matrix62319.html

    --------------------------------------------------------- JetDirect Firmware ---------------------------------------------------------

    JetDirect Firmware Version State ========================== ===== X.08.32 and lower VULNERABLE (where X = A through K) X.21.00 and higher NOT vulnerable (where X = L through P)

    FIX STATUS: HP is working on a firmware fix.

    WORKAROUND: Change the set-community-name and use the Access Control List as described in "HP JetDirect Print Servers - Making HP JetDirect Print Servers Secure on the Network":

    http://www.hp.com/cposupport/networking/support_doc/ bpj05999.html#P88_10129

    LIMITING THE VULNERABILITY

    SNMPv1 security relies on the set community name. It is important that a set-community-name be configured on the JetDirect device and that it be kept secret.

    JetDirect Print Servers offer an Access Control List that can be used to specify which hosts can make SNMP configuration changes to JetDirect Print Servers.

    The steps above can help prevent exploitation of the vulnerability. To eliminate the vulnerability before a fix is available SNMP can be disabled on the JetDirect device.

    DISABLING SNMP ON A JETDIRECT PRINT SERVER

    1. Update the firmware to the highest level as described in the JetDirect Upgrade Instructions document:

    http://www.hp.com/cposupport/networking/support_doc/bpj06917.html

    NOTE: Disabling SNMP may affect device discovery and port monitors that use SNMP to get status on the device. Use this feature with care.

    2. Telnet to the JetDirect device (on the latest firmware) and type: snmp-config: 0 quit

    This will completely disable SNMP on the JetDirect device.

    HP always recommends upgrading JetDirect firmware for the latest bug fixes and security benefits. The upgrade firmware and download utility are available free of charge:

    http://www.hp.com/cposupport/networking/support_doc/bpj06917.html

    The following is a list of JetDirect Product Numbers that can be freely upgraded to X.08.32 or X.21.00 or higher firmware. The latest firmware revision available for download is given. For example, the latest firmware revision for the J3110A is G.08.32.

    The HP OC SS7 (OpenCall) products J3362A and J5938A running on HP-UX releases 10.20 and 11.X are not vulnerable if the applicable HP-UX patch listed above is installed.

    ============================================================ NOTE: The patches are labeled OV (OpenView). However, the patches are also applicable to systems that are _NOT_ running OpenView. ============================================================

    Workaround for HP-UX Systems:

    If a patch is not available for your platform or you cannot install an available patch, snmpd and snmpdm can be disabled by removing their entries from /etc/services and removing the execute permissions from /usr/sbin/snmpd and /usr/sbin/snmpdm.
