================
OpenSSL for OpenVMS Alpha V1.0
==============================
OpenVMS engineering has released a new version of
Compaq SSL for OpenVMS Alpha, Version 1.0-A that
corrects the security vulnerabilities highlighted
in CERT advisory CA-2002-23 for all ports of OpenSSL.
To download OpenSSL for OpenVMS Alpha V1.0-A go to the
following website:
http://www.openvms.compaq.com/openvms/products/ssl/ssl.html
NOTE: Customers who have already installed OpenSSL
for OpenVMS Alpha V1.0 should remove it with the
following command: $ PRODUCT REMOVE SSL and install V1.0-a
V5.3 TCP/IP services for OpenVMS V5.3
=======================================
TCP/IP services for OpenVMS is susceptible to the Buffer
overflow conditions in the BIND 9 Server & utilities on
Alpha only. Customers are asked not to use any keying
mechanisms (including tsig and dnssec) which is done by
editing the BIND configuration file TCPIP$BIND.CONF,
until a patch is provided.
Secure Web Server V1.1-1
========================
Secure Web Server is only vulnerable to the SSLv2
buffer-overflow vulnerability VU#102795. HP has released
security update kits for SWS 1.1-1 and SWS 1.2. These kits
are cumulative and supersede all previous update kits.
