                            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.

         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.

        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.

    Document ID: HPSBUX0207-205 Date Loaded: 20020728 Title: Sec. Vulnerability in HP-UX ISN

    TEXT

    ----------------------------------------------------------------- HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY SECURITY BULLETIN: # HPSBUX0207-205 Originally issued: 29 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 1948 ISN randomization is now available.

    PLATFORM: HP9000 Series 700/800 running HP-UX releases 11.00, 11.04 and 11.11.

    DAMAGE: Possible increase in privilege

    SOLUTION: Apply the appropriate patch as follows:

    for HP randomization on releases: HP-UX 11.00: PHNE_22397 or subsequent, HP-UX 11.11: default mode.

    for RFC 1948 ISN randomization HP-UX 11.00: PHNE_26771 or subsequent, HP-UX 11.04: PHNE_26101 or subsequent, HP-UX 11.11: PHNE_25644 or subsequent.

    MANUAL ACTIONS: none

    AVAILABILITY: All patches are available now.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------ A. Background As discussed in CERT Advisory CA-2001-09, Hewlett-Packard now provides RFC1948 compliant randomization.

    B. Recommended solution The following tcp randomizations are now available:

    HP-UX releases 11.00, 11.04, and 11.11 (11i): HP randomization RFC 1948 ISN randomization

    ================================================================= To enable tcp randomization on HP-UX 11.00, 11.04, and 11.11(11i): =================================================================

    HP randomization

    HP-UX release 11.00: Install PHNE_22397 or subsequent. The HP randomization will then be the default tcp randomization.

    NOTE: This patch has dependencies.

    HP-UX release 11.11 (11i): No patch is required. The HP randomization has always been implemented in HP-UX 11.11 (11i) and is the default tcp randomization.

    RFC 1948 ISN randomization

    HP-UX 11.00: Apply PHNE_26771 or subsequent. HP-UX 11.04: Apply PHNE_26101 or subsequent. HP-UX 11.11 (11i): Apply PHNE_25644 or subsequent.

    Once the appropriate patch has been applied the RFC 1948 ISN randomization can be enabled on HP-UX 11.00, 11.04 and 11.11 by executing the following command as root:

    ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_isn_passphrase <secret passphrase> where <secret passphrase> is any length character string. Only the first 32 characters will be retained. If the passphrase is changed the system should be rebooted.

    NOTE: RFC 1948 ISN randomization is not available on HP-UX release 10.20. Customers who want RFC 1948 ISN randomization should upgrade to HP-UX 11.X and apply necessary patches as discussed herein.
