Remediation/Fixes
A. FIXES
Fixes are available.
The fixes can be downloaded via ftp or http from:
ftp://aix.software.ibm.com/aix/efixes/powersc/security/curl_fix.tar
http://aix.software.ibm.com/aix/efixes/powersc/security/curl_fix.tar
https://aix.software.ibm.com/aix/efixes/powersc/security/curl_fix.tar
The link above is a tar file containing this signedadvisory, open source fix
packages, and OpenSSL signatures for eachpackage.
To extract the fixes from the tar file:
tar xvf curl_fix.tar
cd curl_fix
Verify you have retrieved the fixes intact:
The checksums below were generated using the"openssl dgst -sha256 [filename]"
command as the following:

These sums should match exactly. The OpenSSL signatures in the tarfile and on
this advisory can also be used to verify theintegrity of the fixes. If the sums
or signatures cannot beconfirmed, contact IBM Support.

B. FIX AND INTERIM FIX INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: If possible, it is recommended that a mksysb backupof the system be
created. Verify it is both bootable andreadable before proceeding.
To extract the fixes from the tar file:
tar xvf curl_fix.tar
cd curl_fix
To install a fix package:
rpm -ivh *.rpm
rpm -Uvh *.rpm
Interim fixes have had limited functional and regressiontesting but not the
full regression testing that takes placefor Service Packs; however, IBM does
fully support them.
Workarounds and Mitigations
None.
