Note: HP and the switch vendor recommend running an active version of Fabric OS (FOS) listed on the HP Single Point of Connectivity Knowledge (SPOCK) website ( http://h20272.www2.hp.com/ ) and applying the work-around information provided in the MITIGATION INFORMATION section below to protect HP StoreFabric B-series switches from this vulnerability. Fabric OS (FOS) v7.3.0b (This version will be available soon and this bulletin will revised at that time) The following focused fix FOS versions are available for the previously released versions and have been renamed to include an additional hexadecimal character appended to the FOS version on which it is based: FOS v7.2.1c1 FOS v7.2.0d6 FOS v7.1.2b1 FOS v7.1.1c1 FOS v7.1.0cb FOS v7.0.2e1 FOS v7.0.0d1 FOS v6.4.3f3 FOS v6.4.2a3 FOS v6.2.2f9 MITIGATION INFORMATION HP recommends the following steps to reduce the risk of this vulnerability: - Place the HP StoreFabric SAN switch and other data center critical infrastructure behind a firewall to disallow access from the Internet. - Change all HP StoreFabric switch default account passwords, including the root passwords, from the default factory passwords. - Examine the list of accounts, including ones on the switch and those existing on remote authentication servers such as RADIUS, LDAP, and TACAS+, to ensure only necessary personnel can gain access to HP StoreFabric FOS switches. Delete guest accounts and temporary accounts created for one-time usage needs. - Utilize FOS password policy management to strengthen the complexity, age, and history requirements of switch account passwords.
