| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Sun Solaris versions 8 through 10
OpenSolaris builds snv 01 through snv 95
Description
The issue affects the Solaris Platform Information and Control Library daemon (picld), allowing local users to cause a denial of service. This can be achieved via unknown vectors that prevent the operation of utilities such as prtdiag, prtpicl, and prtfru.
Recommendations
For Sun Solaris versions 8 through 10, update to a version that includes a fix for this issue.
For OpenSolaris builds snv 01 through snv 95, update to a build that includes a fix for this issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the picld daemon to minimize the risk of exploitation.
