Re: OpenSSL Vulnerability Notice

I installed 7.7.8 SP1 plus hotfix (i cant recall which, but i did it last
week), for the SP and the hotfix i used ftp. I pointed the HMC to my ftp
server and it saw all the images, just had to choose which one and it
worked like a charm. (faster than a USB drive as well, gigabit ethernet
really works).

HMC 7042 CR6 now compliant, just finished installing 7770 SP 3, MH01409,
MH01422
HMC internet download failed, twice.
/software/server/hmc/updates isos could be seen, but failed on download.
Has anyone else used the internet download upload successfully.
What is needed for it work?
Downloaded iso to PC, then to USB flash drive.
HMC update(s) went fine.
Only issue here is that the USB drive and to be removed and re-inserted
each time.
HMC would not see the USB flash drive following a reboot, which was
necessary after each HMC update.

My point was that for those who want to know if a compensating control
(network design) is sufficient protection, the answer is that in this case
it usually won't be as the vulnerability can still be exploited as long as
the web service is available outside the protected network.

that's where Mr. Draper is coming from. Supposing that mythological
beast is true, there is always the risk that someone's PC could get
infected and start scanning your network, take advantage of that
weakness and report the results to the outside.
