RESOLUTION

Until patches or upgrades are released, HP has made binary files available to resolve the vulnerability:

1. Download the appropriate named file from this ftp site into a secure directory: 
ftp://ss071449:ss071449@...c.external.hp.com/ 

2. Unpack using gunzip and verify the cksum or md5sum: 

572766271 2613248 named_9.2.0_11.11 
3606788661 4750744 named_9.2.0_11.23IA 
653361159 2330624 named_9.2.0_11.23PA 
903130469 2330624 named_9.3.0_11.11 
203348338 5451512 named_9.3.2_11.23IA 
3758797943 2899968 named_9.3.2_11.23PA 
1406468692 4225172 named_9.3.2_11.31IA 
400611368 2269184 named_9.3.2_11.31PA 
MD5 (named_9.2.0_11.11) = 5ce61d99d513cbdb122865de9f7fb95e 
MD5 (named_9.2.0_11.23IA) = e87a2f8f3daa157a5f6a7ac5153c38b0 
MD5 (named_9.2.0_11.23PA) = a92ffa5abd630d25971e8be3eeacd3b1 
MD5 (named_9.3.0_11.11) = ffc69fa254863ad5cbfc8fc7021ab3c9 
MD5 (named_9.3.2_11.23IA) = 22ebde858def1ebafcfaef9b98cebe28 
MD5 (named_9.3.2_11.23PA) = 20c21b8fd19bc11a0020118c32172b71 
MD5 (named_9.3.2_11.31IA) = 9bd93b513fde895ebc32602824db3341 
MD5 (named_9.3.2_11.31PA) = 81041c98b5699d90e0d90cca14f90d18 

3. Stop the DNS server: 

If named is normally started and stopped during system reboot, use this command: 
/sbin/init.d/named stop 

If rndc is in use, from the managing server issue ths command: 
rndc stop 

If not using rndc enter this command as root on the system running named: 
sig_named kill 

4. Confirm that named is no longer running: 

ps -ef | grep named 
Ignore any lines containing 'grep named'. 

5. Replace named with the appropriate downloaded file. 

Confirm that the downloaded file has permissions/ower/group of '544 bin bin'. Set the ownership and permissions if necessary. 

cp <downloaded file> /usr/sbin/named 

6. Restart named 

If named is normally started during the system reboot: /sbin/init.d/named start 

Otherwise, restart named using procedures established for the system. 

MANUAL ACTIONS: Yes - NonUpdate 
Install named file.
