The vulnerability could be exploited remotely execute arbitrary code or to create a Denial of Service (DoS). References: CVE-2008-1842 SUPPORTED SOFTWARE VERSIONS*: ONLY impacted versions are listed. HP OpenView Network Node Manager (OV NNM) v7.01, v7.51, v7.53 running on HP-UX, Solaris, Linux, and Windows BACKGROUND For a PGP signed version of this security bulletin please write to: security-alert@hp.com CVSS 2.0 Base Metrics Reference Base Vector Base Score CVE-2008-1842 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C) 10.0 Information on CVSS is documented in HP Customer Notice: HPSN-2008-002. The Hewlett-Packard Company thanks Liu Zhen Hua of FortiGuard Global Security Research Team for reporting this vulnerability to security-alert@hp.com. RESOLUTION HP has made archive files and patches available to resolve the vulnerability. The archive files are listed in the table below. In some cases a patch is required. The patch will insure that NNM is compatible with the software files in the archive. No patch is required for NNM v7.53 Note: The files installed for the Resolution in "rev.1" of this Security bulletin must be removed. Instructions for removing the files are in the Readme.txt file. The files recommended in "rev.1" of this Security Bulletin introduced a problem with the 'ovstop -c' command. Under certain circumstances the 'ovstop -c' command would not stop certain NNM processes. The files recommended in "rev.1" of this Security Bulletin do resolve the security vulnerability. The patches are available from http://itrc.hp.com The archive files are available from: ftp://ss080024:ss080024@hprc.external.hp.com/ Unpack the archive and follow the instructions in the Readme.txt file.
