----------------------------------------------------------------------
IMPACT:

Compaq has discovered a potential vulnerability with the
"at" and "inc" for Compaq's DIGITAL UNIX software, where under certain
circumstances, an user may gain unauthorized privileges.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
RESOLUTION:

This potential security problem has been resolved and a
patch for this problem has been made available for
Compaq's Tru64/DIGITAL UNIX V4.0 to V4.0e


*This solution will be included in the next distributed release of
Compaq's Tru64/DIGITAL UNIX

The patch may be obtained from the World Wide Web at the
ollowing FTP address:

http://www.service.digital.com/html/patch_service.html
Use the Browse Patch Tree access option, select DIGITAL_UNIX
directory then choose the appropriate version directory
and download the patch accordingly.

Note: [1] The appropriate patch kit must be installed
following any upgrade to V4.0a, V4.0b, or V4.0c,
V4.0d, V4.0e. If you upgrade from one version to
another, i.e., V4.0b to V4.0d you should re-install
these patches.


[2] IMPORTANT - Please review the appropriate
release notes prior to installation of this patch.

Additional Considerations:

The following components are updated by these patches:

/usr/bin/at (the "at" command)
/usr/bin/mh/inc (The MH message handling system's "inc" command)
/usr/shlib/libmh.so (The MH shared library)

If you believe you have, or aren't sure if you have, previously
installed a patch to any of these modules you should contact your
normal Compaq Services support channel.

Compaq appreciates your cooperation and patience. We regret any
inconvenience applying this information may cause.

As always, Compaq urges you to periodically review your system
management and security procedures.

Compaq 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.
