SEVERITY:  1

SOURCE:  HEWLETT-PACKARD COMPANY

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
