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

       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:

     ------------------------------------------------------------------
    PROBLEM: OnLineJFS sticky bit does not function properly.

    IMPACT: Standard UNIX filesystem security measures not observed.

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

    SOLUTION: Apply appropriate patches:
                 PHKL_24201 for 11.00,
                 PHKL_27832 for 10.20 series 700,
                 PHKL_27833 for 10.20 series 800.

    MANUAL ACTIONS: No

    AVAILABILITY: Patches are available now on itrc.hp.com.

     ------------------------------------------------------------------
     A. Background
        Hewlett-Packard has discovered that standard UNIX filesystem
        security measures are not being observed on HP-UX releases 10.20
        and 11.00 when the OnLineJFS (product B3929BA) is being used.
        The fileset is JournalFS.VXFS-BASE-KRN.

     B. Recommended solution
        Retrieve and apply the appropriate patches:
                 PHKL_24201 for HP-UX 11.00,
                 PHKL_27832 for HP-UX 10.20 series 700,
                 PHKL_27833 for HP-UX 10.20 series 800.

        Note: - A reboot will be required.
              - HP-UX 10.24 (VVOS) is not affected.
              - Though the 11.00 patch has been superseded, this listed
                patch is first available solution to the security problem
                any newer superseded patches address this issue as well.

        To determine if you are running OnLineJFS, run:
        /usr/sbin/swlist -l fileset JournalFS.VXFS-BASE-KRN

         Note: BIND920ver3.depot also corrects potential problems
           reported in CERT advisory CA-2002-23.

        I. Until a product upgrade is available, download and install
       the BIND920ver3.depot.

          1. Download BIND920ver3.depot.gz from the ftp site.
         This file is temporary and will be deleted when a
         product upgrade is available from itrc.hp.com.

            System:    hprc.external.hp.com  (192.170.19.51)
        Login:     bind
        Password:  bind1

            FTP Access: hprc.external.hp.com/">ftp://bind:bind1hprc.external.hp.com/
                or: 192.170.19.51/">ftp://bind:bind1192.170.19.51/
        file: BIND920ver3.depot.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 BIND920ver3.depot.gz file to a protected
         directory and unpack it.
         If you wish to verify the md5 sum please refer to:

                   HPSBUX9408-016
               Patch sums and the MD5 program

              The md5 sum for BIND920ver3.depot is:

          MD5 (BIND920ver3.depot) = 0108336cd2d84adf71eafbbe8e133c36

              The cksum output is:

          251480612 20725760 BIND920ver3.depot

          3. Install BIND920ver3.depot using swinstall.

        II. Until a product upgrade is available, download and install
        the upgrade_bind812_v4.depot for 11.00.  The instructions
        for BIND920ver3.depot above apply.

                file: upgrade_bind812_v4.depot.gz

                MD5 (upgrade_bind812_v4.depot) =

         Note: On 10.20 the DNS API is contained in libc.  Programs
           which make DNS calls and are linked with libc.a
           must be relinked.  So far as is known HP delivers
           no such programs.
           Programs which are linked with ".a" libraries
            are statically linked.
           Statically linked programs may be tested as follows:
    
        strings -a suspect_program | grep "Too many addresses (%d)"
    
           If the program contains the string it may make
           DNS API calls and should be relinked with the
           fixed version of libc.a.
