SSRT3618 Security Vulnerability in HP-UX shells
-----------------------------------------------------------------
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: Shells improperly manage files during operations.
IMPACT: Possible increase of privilege, filesystem damage,
denial of service.
PLATFORM: HP9000 servers running HP-UX versions B.10.20, B.11.00,
B.11.11.
SOLUTION: Apply the appropriate patch from itrc.hp.com:
PHCO_27345 B.11.11 sh-posix
PHCO_27019 B.11.11 ksh
PHCO_26561 B.11.11 csh

A. Background
Many system modules create insecure temporary files with a
name based on a process id, and write subsequent input
to that file. Improper error checking of various sytem
calls results in a vulnerability.
Reference:
CERT-VN:VU#10277 URL:http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/10277
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2000-1134
This problem also affects HP Tru64 UNIX
See SSRT1-41U, SSRT0742U, SSRT0759U
NOTE: This problem does not impact HP NonStop Servers
AFFECTED VERSIONS
The following is a list by HP-UX revision of
affected filesets and the fileset revision or
patch containing the fix. To determine if a
system has an affected version, search the
output of "swlist -a revision -l fileset"
for an affected fileset, then determine if
a fixed revision or the applicable patch is
installed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
PROBLEM: Potential security vulnerability in DCE.
IMPACT: DCE processes may fail.
PLATFORM: Solaris and Linux systems running an agent
supplied by one or more of the following:
B6931DA HP IT/Operations A.05.x,
B6931AA HP IT/Operations A.05.x,
B7405DA OV VP Manager for Solaris A.06.x,

subsequent
SOLUTION: Please contact your HP support representative
for information concerning a preliminary fix.
MANUAL ACTIONS: Non-HP-UX only
AVAILABILITY: This bulletin will be revised when patches are
available.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
A. Background
The worm referred to as "Blaster" or "W32.Blaster.worm", may
impact hp OpenView products running on Microsoft Windows,
HP-UX, Solaris and Linux.
More information about the worm can be found at:
<http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp>
It is important that you follow the instructions from
Microsoft and apply appropriate patches to all servers
running Microsoft Windows.
As the worm attempts to find new systems to infect it can
cause DCE to fail. The HP-UX, Solaris, and Linux systems
running DCE are not infected by the worm. DCE is impacted as
as side effect of the network traffic generated by the worm.
The impact is that critical DCE daemons can abort. These
daemons and the OpenView software which depends on them
would need to be restarted manually.
This problem has been reported by CERT/cc:
<http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/377804>
CERT/cc reports that the vulnerability can be
triggered by attempts to exploit Microsoft RPC
vulnerabilities:
<http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/568148>
<http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/326746>
B. Recommended solution
For Solaris and Linux please contact your support HP
representative for information concerning a preliminary fix.
Customers without a support contact should write to
security-alerthp.com for information.
For systems running Microsoft Windows please refer to:
<http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp>
For HP-UX systems please refer to HPSBUX0308-273.
