    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.

     HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY SECURITY BULLETIN: HPSBUX0208-214
     Originally issued: 28 August 2002
     SSRT2334 Security Vulnerability in VJE.VJE-RUN
     -----------------------------------------------------------------

    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: The VJE.VJE-RUN adds "bin" to /etc/PATH.

    PLATFORM: HP9000 Series 700/800 running HP-UX release 11.00 (ONLY)
              where the VJE.VJE-RUN fileset is currently installed
              or has ever been installed.

    DAMAGE: Potential increase in privileges.

    SOLUTION: Edit /etc/PATH to remove the "bin" element.

    MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - NonUpdate
                    Edit /etc/PATH to remove the "bin" element.

    AVAILABILITY: This bulletin will be updated when a patch
                   is available.
     ------------------------------------------------------------------
     A. Background
        The VJE.VJE-RUN the vje Japanese Input Method. The fileset
        incorrectly adds "bin" to /etc/PATH. If VJE.VJE-RUN has
        ever been installed on the system, even if has been removed,
        the incorrect entry remains in /etc/PATH. A patch will
        be created for the VJE.VJE-RUN to correct /etc/PATH. However,
        this patch cannot be installed on a system where VJE.VJE-RUN
        has been removed. No patch is planned for systems where
        VJE.VJE-RUN has been removed.

     B. Recommended solution
        On systems with VJE.VJE-RUN currently installed:

           Until a patch is available edit /etc/PATH to remove
           the "bin" element.

        On systems where VJE.VJE-RUN was installed and has been
        removed:

            Edit /etc/PATH to remove the "bin" element.

        Note: The "bin" element may occur at anywhere within
               /etc/PATH:

               start - bin:/path1:...
                          Remove "bin:"

               middle - ...:/path1:bin:/path2:...
                          Remove "bin:"

               end - ...:/path1:bin
                          Remove ":bin"

    TEXT

    ----------------------------------------------------------------- **REVISED 07** HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY SECURITY BULLETIN: HPSBUX0207-197 Originally issued: 01 Jul 2002 Last revision: 27 Aug 2002 SSRT2332 Security Vulnerability in Apache Server Chunk Encoding -----------------------------------------------------------------

    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: A remotely exploitable potential for vulnerability in handling of large data chunks in Apache-based web servers.

    PLATFORM: HP9000 Servers running HP-UX release 11.00, 11.04, 11.11 11.20, and 11.22 with the HP Apache product installed.

    DAMAGE: Potential for increased privilege, DoS, or execution of arbitrary code.

    **REVISED 07** SOLUTION: For HP-UX releases 11.00, 11.11, 11.11 running IPv6, 11.20, and 11.22 download new product bundles from <www.software.hp.com/ISS_products_list.html> For only HP-UX release 11.04 (VV-OS): apply patches --->> PHSS_27361, PHSS_27423 - for VV A.04.60 release, --->> PHSS_27371, PHSS_27477 - for VV A.04.50 release.

    MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - Install repaired binary.

    AVAILABILITY: Complete product bundles are available now for 11.00 and 11.11 are available for PA-RISC architecture platforms from <www.software.hp.com> HP-UX 11.04 (VV-OS) patches are available now at itrc.hp.com

    CHANGE SUMMARY: Rev.01 - Do not install the bundle on NNM. Rev.02 - Added Virtualvault patches. Rev.03 - Re-released 1.3.26 bits due to an update deficiency and other minor problems. Rev.04 - Added IPF versions. Rev.05 - Added IPv6 PA-RISC version. Rev.06 - Bundles available from software.hp.com ---->>> Rev.07 - Added additional Virtualvault patches. ------------------------------------------------------------------ A. Background The CERT Advisory CA-2002-17 regarding Apache affects the following HP product numbers:

    B9415AA Apache 1.3.x PA-RISC HP-UX releases 11.00 and 11.11 B9416AA Apache 2.x PA-RISC HP-UX releases 11.00 and 11.11 B9415AA Apache 1.3.x IPF HP-UX releases 11.20 and 11.22 B9416AA Apache 2.x IPF HP-UX releases 11.20 and 11.22 B9416BA Apache 2.x IPv6 PA_RISC HP-UX release 11.11

    HP Apache 1.3.26 (PA-RISC) installs into /opt/apache and /opt/tomcat disk space: 55-65 MB documents: /opt/apache/htdocs/doc

    HP Apache 2.0.39 (PA-RISC) installs into /opt/hpapache2 disk space: 80-90 MB documents: /opt/hpapache2/hp_apache_docs

    HP Apache 1.3.26 (IPF) installs into /opt/apache and /opt/tomcat disk space: 65-75 MB documents: /opt/apache/hp_apache_docs

    HP Apache 2.0.39 (IPF) installs into /opt/hpapache2 disk space: 80-90 MB documents: /opt/hpapache2/hp_apache_docs

    HP Apache 2.0.39 IP version 6 (PA-RISC) installs into /opt/hpapache2 disk space: 80-90 MB documents: /opt/hpapache2/hp_apache_docs

    Before updating, make sure to stop your previous HP Apache binary. Otherwise, the previous binary will continue running, preventing the new one from automatically starting, although the installation would be successful.

    The command to stop the HP Apache binary is: for 1.3.26: /opt/apache/bin/apachectl stop for 2.0.39: /opt/hpapache2/bin/apachectl stop

    HP Apache automatically starts upon installation if port 80 is available.

    Installation of this new version of HP Apache over an existing HP Apache installation is supported, while installation over a non-HP Apache is NOT supported.

    ==================================================================

    An advisory has been issued for HP Compaq systems. Please refer to HP Compaq SSRT2253, which says in part:

    CSWS Secure Web Server for HP Tru64 UNIX and HP OpenVMS "Potential Apache Web Server Chunk Handling Vulnerability"

    Patches are available for CSWS for HP Tru64 UNIX at: http://tru64unix.compaq.com/internet/download.htm#sws_v591

    Patches are available for CSWS for HP OpenVMS at: http://www.openvms.compaq.com/openvms/products/ips/apache/ +csws_patches.html

    B. Fixing the problem

    Note: OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) customers should not install the ftp bundles. The version of Apache delivered with NNM is under investigation. This bulletin will be updated when more information is available.

    **REVISED 07** -->> The Virtualvault product (also known as HP-UX 11.04) has -->> patches for its 4.5 and 4.6 releases. The patches for VV 4.6 -->> update both the inside and outside web server to the -->> Apache 1.3.26 version from the Apache 1.3.22 version shipped -->> with the VV 4.6 release. -->> For the VV 4.5 patch, the security fix from the Apache 1.3.26 -->> version was backported to the 1.3.19 version per the Apache -->> Group's patch for httpd 1.2.0-1.3.22.

    -->> Both of these Virtualvault patches are available in itrc.hp.com. -->> PHSS_27361, PHSS_27423 - for VV A.04.60 release. -->> PHSS_27371, PHSS_27477 - for VV A.04.50 release.

    The fixes for both PA-RISC and IPF (Itanium Processor Family) versions are in the form of new product bundles, instead of patches. These are currently available from software.hp.com, under "Internet and Security Solutions".
