Problem Description Allowing TCP packets with both the SYN and FIN bits set significantly improve an attacker's chances of circumventing a firewall. 2. Vulnerable Supported Versions System Package ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server prior to tcp_sec-1.0-1.i386.rpm OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation prior to tcp_sec-1.0-1.i386.rpm 3. Solution The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater, called cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to update these packages rather than downloading and installing them by hand. 4. OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server 4.1 Package Location ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/updates/OpenLinux/3.1.1/Server/CSSA-2003-019.0/RPMS 4.2 Packages 57270040e72d49ac888b9967cc86cac8 tcp_sec-1.0-1.i386.rpm 4.3 Installation - rpm -ivh tcp_sec-1.0-1.i386.rpm - reboot the machine 4.4 Source Package Location ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/updates/OpenLinux/3.1.1/Server/CSSA-2003-019.0/SRPMS 4.5 Source Packages acee43450be1a90b11bfc6049e9b788e tcp_sec-1.0-1.src.rpm 5.
