   DOCUMENT ID: 57475
   SYNOPSIS: SunPlex (Sun Cluster) Multiple Security Vulnerabilities in
   OpenSSL Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS)
   Protocols
   DETAIL DESCRIPTION:
   
Sun(sm) Alert Notification

     * Sun Alert ID: 57475
     * Synopsis: SunPlex (Sun Cluster) Multiple Security Vulnerabilities
       in OpenSSL Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security
       (TLS) Protocols
     * Category: Security
     * Product: Sun Cluster
     * BugIDs: 4959521
     * Avoidance: Workaround
     * State: Committed
     * Date Released: 16-Jan-2004
     * Date Closed:
     * Date Modified:
       
1. Impact

   On systems running Sun Cluster 3.x with SunPlex Manager configured, a
   remote unprivileged user may cause a Denial of Service (DoS) and
   arbitrary code execution due to multiple vulnerabilities in OpenSSL
   Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS)
   protocols.
   
   This issue is also described in CERT Vulnerability VU#104280 at
   [1]http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/104280, which is referenced in CERT
   Advisory CA-2003-26 at
   [2]http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2003-26.html. Also see the NISCC
   Vulnerability Advisory 006489/TLS at
   [3]http://www.uniras.gov.uk/vuls/2003/006489/tls.htm.
   
2. Contributing Factors

   This issue can occur in the following releases:
   
   SPARC Platform
     * Sun Cluster 3.x (for Solaris 8 and 9) with SunPlex Manager
       configured
       
   Notes:
    1. Sun Cluster 3.x is not supported on Solaris 7 or Solaris x86
       platforms.
    2. Sun Cluster 2.x is not affected by this issue.
    3. Sun Cluster component SunPlex Manager uses OpenSSL.
       
   To determine if SunPlex Manager is configured and running on a cluster
   node, run the following command under the Korn shell (/usr/bin/ksh):
    $ $ ps -fp `cat /var/cluster/spm/httpd.pid`


   If the output is similar to the following:
    UID   PID  PPID   C    STIME TTY         TIME CMD
    root  292     1   0    Nov 19 ?           0:02 /usr/sbin/syslogd

   then SunPlex Manager is running on this cluster node. If the above
   command returns no output, SunPlex Manager is not running on this
   cluster node.
   
3. Symptoms

   There are no predictable symptoms that would indicate the above
   described issue has been exploited.
   SOLUTION SUMMARY:
   
4. Relief/Workaround

   To work around the described issue, systems can be protected by
   completely stopping the SunPlex Manager by running the following
   command:
    $ /etc/init.d/initspm stop

5. Resolution

   A final resolution is pending completion.
