    B. FIXES

        Fixes are available.

        The fixes can be downloaded via ftp or http from:

        ftp://aix.software.ibm.com/aix/efixes/security/suid_fix.tar
        http://aix.software.ibm.com/aix/efixes/security/suid_fix.tar
        https://aix.software.ibm.com/aix/efixes/security/suid_fix.tar

        The links above are to a tar file containing this signed
        advisory, fix packages, and OpenSSL signatures for each package.
        The fixes below include prerequisite checking. This will
        enforce the correct mapping between the fixes and AIX
        Technology Levels.

        Please note that the below tables refer to AIX TL/SP level as
        opposed to fileset level, i.e., 6.1.9.9 is AIX 6100-09-09.

        These sums should match exactly. The OpenSSL signatures in the tar
        file and on this advisory can also be used to verify the
        integrity of the fixes.  If the sums or signatures cannot be
        confirmed, contact IBM Support at

    C. FIX AND INTERIM FIX INSTALLATION

        IMPORTANT: If possible, it is recommended that a mksysb backup
        of the system be created.  Verify it is both bootable and
        readable before proceeding.

        To preview a fix installation:

        installp -a -d fix_name -p all  # where fix_name is the name of the
                                        # fix package being previewed.
        To install a fix package:

        installp -a -d fix_name -X all  # where fix_name is the name of the
                                        # fix package being installed.

        Interim fixes have had limited functional and regression
        testing but not the full regression testing that takes place
        for Service Packs; however, IBM does fully support them.

        Interim fix management documentation can be found at:

        http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/sas/f/aix.efixmgmt/home.html
        https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/sas/f/aix.efixmgmt/home.html

        To preview an interim fix installation:

        emgr -e epkg_name -p         # where epkg_name is the name of the
                                     # interim fix package being previewed.

        To install an interim fix package:

        emgr -e epkg_name -X         # where epkg_name is the name of the
                                     # interim fix package being installed.
