    ===============================================================================
    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://support.itrc.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.

    PROBLEM: Buffer overflow in rpc.ttdbserver

    PLATFORM: HP9000 Series 700/800 running HP-UX releases 10.10,
              10.20, 10.24, 11.00, 11.04, and 11.11.

    DAMAGE: Potential unauthorized access, increased privileges.

    **REVISED 03**
    SOLUTION: For 10.10, 10.24, 11.04, and 11.11
     -->> until patches are available, manually install a
     -->> replacement rpc.ttdbserver.
     -->> For 10.20 install PHSS_27426.
     -->> For 11.00 install PHSS_27427.

    MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - NonUpdate
     -->> For 10.10, 10.24, 11.04, and 11.11
     -->> install replacement rpc.ttdbserver.
     -->> For 10.20 and 11.00, install applicable patch.
     -->> No manual actions.

    AVAILABILITY: The replacement rpc.ttdbserver files are
     -->> available now. The 10.20 and 11.00
     -->> pataches are available now.

    CHANGE SUMMARY: Rev.01 Added VVOS information.
                    Rev.02 Added CA-2002-26 information.
                    Rev.03 Patches available for 10.20 and 11.00.

     ------------------------------------------------------------------
     A. Background
        Buffer overflows in rpc.ttdbserver has been reported by CERT
        in CA-2002-20 and CA-2002-26. The potential exists to exploit
        these overflows to gain unauthorized access.

     B. Recommended solution
        Until patches are available, install the appropriate file to
        replace rpc.ttdbserver.

    **REVISED 03**
     -->>For 10.20 install PHSS_27426.
     -->>For 11.00 install PHSS_27427.

         Note: The 10.20 file should be used for 10.24.
               The 11.00 file should be used for 11.04.

               On 10.24 and 11.04 (VVOS) rpc.ttdbserver is disabled
               by default.

          1. Download rpc.ttdbserver.2.tar.gz from the ftp site.
             This file is temporary and will be deleted when patches
             are available from the standard HP web sites, including
             itrc.hp.com.

            System: hprc.external.hp.com (192.170.19.51)
            Login: ttdb1
            Password: ttdb1

            FTP Access: hprc.external.hp.com/">ftp://ttdb1:ttdb1hprc.external.hp.com/
                   or: 192.170.19.51/">ftp://ttdb1:ttdb1192.170.19.51/

            file: rpc.ttdbserver.2.tar.gz

            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

          2. Copy the rpc.ttdbserver.2.tar.gz file to a protected
             directory and unpack it.
             If you wish to verify the md5 sum before unpacking the
             rpc.ttdbserver.tar.gz file, please refer to:

                   HPSBUX9408-016
                   Patch sums and the MD5 program

              The md5 sum for rpc.ttdbserver.2.tar.gz is:

          MD5 (rpc.ttdbserver.2.tar.gz) =
                         e6af458213a9834146f716c9df7f1aaf

          3. Install the new rpc.ttdbserver file using the
             install_rpc.ttdbserver script or some similar procedure.
             The install_rpc.ttdbserver script is included in
             rpc.ttdbserver.2.tar.gz.

             For example on a 10.20 system:

                ./install_rpc.ttdbserver rpc.ttdbserver.1020

    TEXT

                            

                                    

     -----------------------------------------------------------------
     HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY SECURITY BULLETIN: HPSBUX0209-218
     Originally issued: 18 Sep 2002
     SSRT2345 Security Vulnerability in DNS Resolvers
              for HP Peripherals
     -----------------------------------------------------------------

    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: Multiple potential vulnerabilities in DNS Resolver
             Libraries

    PLATFORM: HP Jetdirect Print Servers, HP LaserJet Printers

    IMPACT: Potential denial of service, potential unauthorized access

     ------------------------------------------------------------------
    SOLUTION: Until a firmware update is available, eliminate the DNS
              server's IP address or use specific IP addresses rather
              than DNS names.

    MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - NonUpgrade
                    Change the DNS configuration as documented below.

    AVAILABILITY: This bulletin will be revised when a firmware update
                  is available.
     ------------------------------------------------------------------
     A. Background

        CERT (Computer Emergency Response Team) has recently posted
        an alert regarding DNS Resolver vulnerabilities in many network
        devices that implement a DNS Resolver.

           http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-19.html
     
        The following HP Jetdirect devices are vulnerable:
        --------------------------------------------------
     
          Upgradable Print Servers

            615n J6057A EIO 10/100 Print Server
            610n J4169A EIO 10/100 Print Server
            610n J4167A EIO 802.5 Print Server
            680n J6058A EIO 802.11b Print Server
            380x J6061A External 802.11b Print Server
            310x J6038A External 10/100 Print Server
            250m J6042A LIO 10/100 Print Server

          Non-Upgradable Print Servers

            175x J6035A External 10/100 Print Server
            200m J6039A LIO 10/100 Print Server

      The following HP Peripherals are vulnerable:
      --------------------------------------------

       HP Color LaserJet 4550
       HP Color LaserJet 4600
       HP LaserJet 4100, 4100MFP
       HP LaserJet 9000, 9000MFP
       HP Digital Sender 9100C

       
     B. Recommended solution

        For HP Jetdirect Print Servers (Upgradable)

        1) Using a browser, access the Jetdirect's web server.
        2) Click the "Networking" tab, then click "Other Settings".
        3) If a DNS Server has been specified, clear out the
             IP address and then click "Apply".
        4) This bulletin will be updated when a firmware update
           is available.

        For HP Jetdirect Print servers (Not Upgradable)

        1) If connected to a scanner, a scan-to-email function is
           available. The email address of the SMTP server should
           be entered as an IP address rather than a DNS name.

                 a) To modify the email address of the SMTP server access
               Jetdirect's web server.
            b) Click the "Networking" tab, then click "Other Settings".
            c) The Email Server can be specified as an IP Address.
               Then click "Apply".

        2) If scan-to-email is not being used, the DNS resolver
           is not being used. However, the steps above can be
           implemented in anticipation of adding a scanner.

     
        HP Peripherals

        NOTE: The HP Peripherals listed implement a separate resolver
        from Jetdirect.

        These peripherals are not upgradable. Please utilize IP
        addresses rather than DNS names for any email notifications
        or other functionality that would require a DNS resolver.

        To learn more about securing Jetdirect Print Servers on
        the network please refer to this document:
