access

- -----------------------------------------------------------------
NOTICE: There are no restrictions for distribution of this Bulletin
provided that it remains complete and intact.

RELEASE DATE: 7 January 2004

SEVERITY: 1

SOURCE: HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY
Software Security Response Team

REFERENCE: None

PROBLEM SUMMARY
Potential security vulnerabilities have been identified in HP Tru64 UNIX
running IPsec and SSH software that may result in a local or remote
exploit of a Denial of Service (DoS) and/or local or remote unauthorized
access.

VERSIONS IMPACTED
The currently supported versions of HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B PK2 (BL22) and
PK3 (BL24) and V5.1A running IPsec and SSH software kits earlier than:
IPsec 2.1.1 and SSH 3.2.2

RESOLUTION
HP is releasing the following Early Release Patch (ERP) kits for HP
Tru64 UNIX V5.1B, and Web kits for HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1A.

The V5.1B ERP kits use dupatch to install and will not install over any
installed Customer Specific Patches (CSPs) that have file intersections
with the ERPs. Contact your service provider for assistance if the
installation of the ERPs is blocked by any of your installed CSPs.

The resolutions contained in the V5.1B ERP kits are scheduled to be
available in the following mainstream patch kit:

HP Tru64 UNIX V5.1B PK4
