	    Caldera International, Inc. Security Advisory

Subject:		Open UNIX, UnixWare 7: snmpd memory fault vulnerabilities
Advisory number: 	CSSA-2002-SCO.4
Issue date: 		2002 February 12
Cross reference:
___________________________________________________________________________


1. Problem Description
=09
	The University of Oulu (Finland) wrote approximately 53000
	tests for snmpd error conditions.  For Open UNIX and UnixWare,
	94 of the tests caused snmpd to memory fault. This could lead
	to denial-of-service attacks, or possible local and remote
	root acquisition.


2. Vulnerable Supported Versions

	Operating System	Version		Affected Files
	------------------------------------------------------------------
	Open UNIX		8.0.0		/usr/lib/libsnmp.so
	UnixWare 7		7.1.1		/usr/lib/libsnmp.so
	UnixWare 7		7.1.0		/usr/lib/libsnmp.so


3. Workaround

	If snmp is not a needed service:

	add an 'exit 0' statement (without the single quotes) as the
	first executable line of /etc/rc2.d/S73snmp,

		-or-

	remove the execute bits from the in.snmpd binary,

		# chmod 0 /usr/sbin/in.snmpd


4. Open UNIX 8.0.0
