ATMSNMPD vulnerable???? Yep! I am challenging anyone out there to find information on line stating that Sun's ATMSNMPD is vulnerable to attack. As of today May 13 2002 there is no information identifying this fact. If you are running SunATM 4.0 or 5.0 and have not added the patches below you are vulnerable to attack. Is there sun documentation identifying the vulnerability and the urgent need to implement the patch? As of today there is not. Sun still has not publicly released this info. Why I don't know. I had to research the heck out of this to get this answer. See below for more info. Patches: 107915-13: SunATM 4.0 Update1: bug fixes 109039-09: SunATM 5.0: bug fixes (SEE BELOW FOR DETAILS) -----Original Message----- From: Dave Ahmad [mailto:da@securityfocus.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 08, 2002 10:44 AM To: Coppage, Ross Subject: Re: Suns ATMSNMPD Vulnerable -Not identified Hi Ross, Thanks for the information, but do you have the patch IDs? Could you include that in a new message to the list?
