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.

o IT Resource Center World Wide Web Service
   ---------------------------------------------------

   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:

     http://support.itrc.hp.com/

   Login using your IT Resource Center User ID and Password.
   Then select Support Information Digests (located under

Originally issued: 16 July 2003
SSRT3587 Security Vulnerabilities in Apache HTTP Server
 -----------------------------------------------------------------

NOTICE: There are no restrictions for distribution of this
        Bulletin provided that it remains complete and intact.
        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: 1. Apache 2.0.40 through 2.0.45 do not properly handle
            threads correctly, potentially allowing a remote
            denial of service.

       More details are available at:
  http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2003-0189

         2. A defect in Apache 2.0.37 through 2.0.45 potentially
            allows a remote denial of service.

       More details are available at:
       http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2003-0245

IMPACT: Potential remote Denial of Service

PLATFORM: HP-UX releases B.11.00, B.11.11 and B.11.22 with
          versions of the following products are affected:

         - HPApache/B9416AA and HPApache/B9416BA (all versions)

         - hp-ux apache-based web server, (product hpuxwsAPACHE or
           hpuxwsApache) v.1.0.05.01 or earlier
           This product includes Apache 2.0.45.

        - hp apache-based web server, 2.0.43.04 or earlier
          (HPApache/B9416AA, HPApache/B9416BA)
          This product includes Apache 2.0.43.

        - hp-ux apache-based web server, v.1.0.05.01 or earlier
          (hpuxwsAPACHE/hpuxwsApache)
          This product includes Apache 2.0.45.

AFFECTED FILESETS:
  The affected filesets are: (product.fileset)
  HPApache.APACHE2 2.0.39.01.02 HP Apache 2.0.39
  hpuxwsAPACHE.APACHE2 A.1.0.05.01 2.0.45 base (IPF Binaries)

SOLUTION: For HP-UX releases B.11.00, B.11.11 and B.11.22:
          1. Remove HPApache/B9416AA and HPApache/B9416BA if they
             are installed.

          2. Download and install:
             hp-ux apache-based web server, v.1.0.06.01 or later
             (product hpuxwsAPACHE or bundle hpuxwsApache)

     NOTE: The product install location and structure has changed
           between HPApache/B9416*A and hpuxwsAPACHE/hpuxwsApache.

             This product includes Apache 2.0.46 and is available
             from:
         http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/
             cgi/displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=HPUXWSSUITE

  NOTE: No IPv6 solution is available at this time. This Security
        Bulletin will be updated when such becomes available.

MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - Update
                Install the product containing the fix.
                For customers with HPApache/B9416AA or
                HPApache/B9416BA installed, the fix requires
                migration to hpuxwsAPACHE/hpuxwsApache and
                removing the affected products from the system.

AVAILABILITY: Complete product bundles are available now on
               <http://www.software.hp.com/>

 -----------------------------------------------------------------
A. Background
   The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
  <http://cve.mitre.org/> has identified potential vulnerabilities
   in the Apache HTTP Server (CAN-2003-0189, CAN-2003-0245). These
   affect the following HP products on HP-UX releases B.11.00,
   B.11.11 and B.11.22:

    - HPApache/B9416AA and HPApache/B9416BA (all versions)

    - hp-ux apache-based web server products hpuxwsAPACHE and
      hpuxwsApache, v.1.0.05.01 or earlier.

    Note: The following are not vulnerable:
          HP OpenVMS
          HP NonStop Servers
          HP Tru64 UNIX
          HP Tru64 OpenVMS

B. Recommended solution
   The Apache Software Foundation has released Apache 2.0.46 as
   the best known version fixing the potential vulnerabilities
   mentioned above.

   HP has incorporated Apache 2.0.46 in the following product:

    - hp-ux apache-based web server v.1.0.06.01 or later,
      available from:
      http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/
             displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=HPUXWSSUITE

   NOTE: No IPv6 solution is available at this time. This Security
         Bulletin will be updated when such becomes available.

   Check for Apache Installation
   -----------------------------
   To determine if the Apache web server from HP is installed on
   your system, use Software Distributor's swlist command. More
   than one version may be present on a single system.

   For example, the results of the command
     swlist -l product | grep -i apache

     HPApache 2.0.39.01.02 HP Apache-based Web Server
     hpuxwsAPACHE A.1.0.05.01 HP-UX Apache-based Web Server

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

   After determining which Apache is installed, stop Apache with
   the following commands:

     for HPApache: /opt/hpapache2/bin/apachectl stop
     for hpuxwsAPACHE: /opt/hpws/apache/bin/apachectl stop

   Download and Install Apache
   -----------------------------
   - Download Apache from Software Depot using the previously
     mentioned links.
   - Verify successful download by comparing the cksum with the
     value specified on the installation web page.
   - Use SD to swinstall the depot.
   - For customers with HPApache/B9416AA or HPApache/B9416BA
     installed, migrate to hpuxwsAPACHE/hpuxwsApache and
     remove the affected products from the system.

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

   Removing Apache Installation
   ----------------------------
   If you prefer to remove Apache from your system rather than
   install a newer version to resolve the security problem, use
   both Software Distributor's "swremove" command and also
   "rm -rf" the home location as specified in the rc.config.d
   file "HOME" variables.

   To find the files containing HOME variables in the
   /etc/rc.config.d directory:

     %ls /etc/rc.config.d | grep apache
        hpapache2conf
        hpws_apacheconf
