    ===============================================================================
    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.

       like to be REMOVED from this mailing list, access the
       IT Resource Center on the World Wide Web at:

     -----------------------------------------------------------------
     HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY SECURITY BULLETIN: HPSBUX0209-215
     Originally issued: 09 September 2002
     SSRT2336 Security Vulnerability in XDR library
     -----------------------------------------------------------------

    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: Potential buffer overflow in XDR library.

    PLATFORM: HP 9000 Series 700 and 800 10.20, 11.00, 11.11, and 11.22

    DAMAGE: Potential unauthorized access, denial of service.

    SOLUTION: Until patches are available manually install the
              appropriate fixed libraries.

    MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - NonUpdate
                    Install the appropriate fixed libraries.
                    Relink any archived programs that call
                    xdr_array().

    AVAILABILITY: This bulletin will be updated when patches are
                   available.
     ------------------------------------------------------------------
     A. Background
        CERT Advisory CA-2002-25 reports an integer overflow in
        certain implementations of XDR libraries. Libraries supplied
        with HP-UX 10.20, 11,00, 11.11, and 11.22 are potentially
        vulnerable.

        In addition, cross-reference:
        HP Tru64 UNIX: Case id: SSRT2309 rpc XDR_ARRAY
           A solution is available as noted in the recent
           security bulletin SSSRT2275 at
           http://thenew.hp.com/country/us/eng/support.html
           Use the SEARCH IN feature box, enter SSRT2275 in the
           search window.

     B. Recommended solution
        Until patches are released download and manually install
        the appropriate libraries.
     
        Note: It will be necessary to relink any programs that
        call xdr_array() and are linked with archived libraries.
        There are no known programs supplied by HP which need to
        be relinked. To test an archived program:

           strings suspect_program | grep xdr_array:

        If the command above returns "xdr_array: out of memory"
        the suspect_program will need to the relinked with a
        fixed library.

        Download the appropriate files from:

         System: hprc.external.hp.com (192.170.19.51)
         Login: xdr
         Password: xdr1

         FTP Access: hprc.external.hp.com/">ftp://xdr:xdr1hprc.external.hp.com/
                 or: 192.170.19.51/">ftp://xdr:xdr1192.170.19.51/

          Note: There is an ftp defect in IE5 that may result in
                a browser hang. To work around this:
          - Select Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced
          - Un-check the option: [ ] Enable folder view for FTP sites.

         The files are:

            PHCO_26152.depot.gz

            libnsl.1.32_11.00.gz
            libnsl.a.32_11.00.gz

          Copy the appropriate files to a secure directory,
          for example /. Then,

          For 10.20
          ====================================
          Install PHCO_26152.depot:
          swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \
                            -s /PHCO_26152.depot

          After this any applications that use the RPC/XDR APIs
          in libc.1 must be restarted. Any applications that use
          the RPC/XDR APIs in libc.a must be relinked and restarted.

          Note: It may be preferable to reboot the system rather
          than attempting to identify applications using the
          RPC/XDR APIs in libc.1.

          For 11.00
          ====================================
          #cd /usr/lib
          #mv libnsl.1 libnsl.1.orig

          #chmod 444 libnsl.a
          #chmod -R bin:bin libnsl.1
          #chmod -R bin:bin libnsl.a.

          After this, any applications that use libnsl.1 must be
          restarted. Any applications that use libnsl.a must
          be relinked and restarted.

          For 11.11
          ====================================

          #chmod 444 libnsl.a
          #chmod -R bin:bin libnsl.1
          #chmod -R bin:bin libnsl.a.

          After this, any applications that use libnsl.1 must be
          restarted. Any applications that use libnsl.a must
          be relinked and restarted.

          For 11.22 PA
          ====================================
          #cd /usr/lib
          #mv libnsl.1 libnsl.1.orig

    A. Background
        The CERT Advisory CA-2002-17 regarding Apache affects the
        following HP products:

        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

          OpenView NNM 6.01, 6.1, 6.2, 6.31 running on HPUX or SOLARIS
          OpenView SIP 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 running on HPUX or SOLARIS

    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 have been successful.

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