Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has released wa series of important security updates across its product range, addressing multiple vulnerabilities, including some with critical and high severity rating.
Among the fixes are for the HP-UX PAM RADIUS component, versions 11i v3 prior to A.03.00.00. Multiple security issues could allow attackers to execute malicious code remotely or cause service disruptions. Upgrading to the latest version and enabling the “require_message_authenticator” setting can help mitigate these risks.
Recent vulnerabilities in HPE’s SAN switches with Brocade Fabric OS could allow local attackers to escalate privileges, cause system crashes, or traverse directories maliciously. Firmware updates are available in Fabric OS 9.2.1c and 9.2.2a ensuring your storage network remains secure and operational.
Servers running on certain Intel Xeon processors are also affected by vulnerabilities that could allow local attackers to cause crashes or escalate privileges. Firmware updates (at least version v1.60.88) for the HPE Compute Scale-up Server 3200 are available and will help protect your hardware.
Addressing these vulnerabilities quickly is essential to maintaining the security and stability of your IT infrastructure. Leaving known issues unpatched can expose your organization to potential risks, including data breaches and operational disruptions.
HPE provides the necessary updates through their support portal. It’s recommended to review your current hardware and software, then download and install needed firmware and patches as soon as possible.
