CERT Advisory - VMS Monitor Vulnerability
by CERT Advisory 22 Sep '92

22 Sep '92

CA-92:16 CERT Advisory September 22, 1992 VMS Monitor Vulnerability --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The CERT Coordination Center has received information concerning a potential vulnerability with Digital Equipment Corporation's VMS Monitor. This vulnerability is present in V5.0 through V5.4-2 but has been corrected in V5.4-3 through V5.5-1. The Software Security Response Team at Digital has provided the following information concerning this vulnerability. NOTE: Digital suggests that customers who are unable to upgrade their systems implement the workaround described below. For additional information, please contact your local Digital Equipment Corporation customer service representative. Beginning of Text provided by Digital Equipment Corporation ============================================================================== SSRT-0200 PROBLEM: Potential Security Vulnerability Identified in Monitor SOURCE: Digital Equipment Corporation AUTHOR: Software Security Response Team - U.S. Colorado Springs USA PRODUCT: VMS Symptoms Identified On: VMS, Versions 5.0, 5.0-1, 5.0-2, 5.1, 5.1-B, 5.1-1, 5.1-2, 5.2, 5.2-1, 5.3, 5.3-1, 5.3-2, 5.4, 5.4-1, 5.4-2 ******************************************************* SOLUTION: This problem is not present in VMS V5.4-3 (released in October 1991) through V5.5-1 (released in July, 1992.) ******************************************************* Copyright (c) Digital Equipment Corporation, 1992 All Rights Reserved. Published Rights Reserved Under The Copyright Laws Of The United States. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROBLEM/IMPACT: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unauthorized privileges may be expanded to authorized users of a system under certain conditions, via the Monitor utility. Should a system be compromised through unauthorized access, there is a risk of potential damage to a system environment. This problem will not permit unauthorized access entry, as individuals attempting to gain unauthorized access will continue to be denied through the standard VMS security mechanisms. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOLUTION: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This potential vulnerability does not exist in VMS V5.4-3 (released in October 1991) and later versions of VMS through V5.5-1. Digital strongly recommends that you upgrade to a minimum of VMS V5.4-3, and further, to the latest release of VMS V5.5-1. (released in July, 1992) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ INFORMATION: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you cannot upgrade at this time Digital recommends that you implement a workaround (examples attached below) to avoid any potential vulnerability. As always, Digital recommends that you periodically review your system management and security procedures. Digital will continue to review and enhance the security features of its products and work with customers to maintain and improve the security and integrity of their systems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WORKAROUND ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A suggested workaround would be to remove the installed image SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE via VMS INSTALL and/or restrict the use of the MONITOR utility to "privileged" system administrators. Below are the examples of doing both; [1] To disable the MONITOR utility the image SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE should be deinstalled. From a privileged account; For cluster configurations; --------------------------- $ MC SYSMAN SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER SYSMAN> DO INSTALL REMOVE SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE SYSMAN> DO RENAME SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE SPISHR.HOLD SYSMAN> EXIT For non-VAXcluster configurations; --------------------------------- $INSTALL INSTALL>REMOVE SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE INSTALL>EXIT $RENAME SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE SPISHR.HOLD [2] If you wish to restrict access to the MONITOR command so that only a limited number of authorized (or privileged) persons are granted access to the utility, one method might be to issue the following example commands; From a privileged account; For cluster configurations; --------------------------- $ MC SYSMAN SYSMAN> SET ENVIRONMENT/CLUSTER SYSMAN> DO INSTALL REMOVE SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE SYSMAN> DO SET FILE/ACL=(ID=*,ACCESS=NONE) SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE SYSMAN> DO SET FILE/ACL=(ID=SYSTEM,ACCESS=READ+EXECUTE) SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE SYSMAN> DO INSTALL ADD SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE/OPEN/HEADER/SHARE/PROTECT SYSMAN> EXIT $ THIS WILL IMPACT the MONITOR UTILITY FOR REMOTE MONITORING. LOCAL MONITORING WILL CONTINUE TO WORK FOR PERSONS HOLDING THE ID's GRANTED ACL ACCESS. see additional note(s) below For non-VAXcluster configurations; ---------------------------------- $ INSTALL INSTALL>REMOVE SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE INSTALL>EXIT $ SET FILE /ACL=(ID=*,ACCESS=NONE) SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE $ SET FILE /ACL=(ID=SYSTEM,ACCESS=READ+EXECUTE) SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE $ INSTALL INSTALL>ADD SYS$SHARE:SPISHR.EXE/OPEN/HEADER/SHARE/PROTECT INSTALL>EXIT $ IN THE ABOVE EXAMPLES, THE "SET FILE /ACL" LINE SHOULD BE REPEATED FOR ALL ACCOUNTS THAT ARE REQUIRED/ALLOWED TO USE THE DCL MONITOR COMMAND. NOTE: The ID -SYSTEM- is an example, and should be substituted as necessary with valid user ID's that are associated with accounts you wish to grant access to. =========================================================================== End of Text provided by Digital Equipment Corporation --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CERT wishes to thank Teun Nijssen of CERT-NL (the SURFnet CERT, in the Netherlands) for bringing this security vulnerability to our attention. We would also like to thank Digital Equipment Corporation's Software Security Response Team for providing information on this vulnerability. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you believe that your system has been compromised, contact CERT or your representative in FIRST (Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams).

Anyone renting a car at DTW for the MERIT seminar?
by Vince Fuller 16 Sep '92

16 Sep '92

Is there anyone attending the MERIT seminar who is renting a car from Detroit Metro airport with an arrival time of around 9:00PM on Sunday the 21st? I'm scheduled in on Northwest flight 344 arriving at 9:09PM and would be happy to pay gas/mileage in exchange for a ride from the airport (my arrival time should guarentee that I just miss the 9:00 bus...) Thanks, --Vince

August Backbone Engineering Report
by Jordan Becker 14 Sep '92

14 Sep '92

> Jordan, > > I notice that there was no mention in your report of the serious > outage NEARnet experienced early in the month. Do such outages get > reported via some other mechanism? > > - John John, We generally do not report specific outages in the monthly engineering report, unless they are causes or effects of changes in network software/hardware. With respect to the outage you describe, there were two routing problems which surfaced at the beginning of the month that caused some outages. We inadvertantly neglected to include these. Thanks for pointing this out. To clarify: a bug in the EGP protocol code of our T3 rcp_routed software induced a serious outage at both NEARnet and SESQUInet on 8/11, and resulted in at least one change to the T3-rcp_routed software. This occured at about the same time that we exceeded the 8KB EGP update size in outbound network announcements, which caused problems with a few regional routers, and complicated the diagnosis of the T3 routing software bug. As an aside, we have been maintaining a current set of release notes on the T3 network routing software that describes the bug fixes and changes in each release. This is available via anonymous on ftp.ans.net in the file /pub/info/T3-rcp_routed/Release-Notes. We hope that people find this information useful and welcome feedback from the community. Finally, our practice for outage reporting has been to post real time T3/T1 outage reports involving regional network and service provider attachments to the NSR mailing list and provide additional information on the regional-techs and nwg mailing lists.
