Cisco releases ISE patches on a semi-regular basis. These patches contain bug fixes and, when necessary, security fixes (for example, the Heartbleed and Poodle vulnerabilities discovered with SSL).




PATCHED USB Over Network V3.5.1 Patch Included




ESXi 5.1 Update 1 was just released by VMware and similar to the ESXi 5.0 Update 2 release last year, the tg3 (Broadcom) driver has now been updated to 3.123b.v50.1 which is required to support network connectivity on the Apple Mac Mini's. Prior to this, to install ESXi on an Apple Mac Mini, users were required to build a custom ISO that included the updated tg3 driver and I am happy to say this is no long necessary! In addition, having the latest driver also provides out of the box support for the Thunderbolt ethernet adapter which is great if you are looking to add an additional ethernet connection to the Apple Mac Mini.


This release contains general and security-only bulletins. Security-only bulletins are applicable to new security fixes only. No new bug fixes are included, but bug fixes from earlier patch and update releases are included. If the installation of all new security and bug fixes is required, you must apply all bulletins in this release. In some cases, the general release bulletin will supersede the security-only bulletin. This is not an issue as the general release bulletin contains both the new security and bug fixes. The security-only bulletins are identified by bulletin IDs that end in "SG". For information on patch and update classification, see KB 2014447. For more information about the individual bulletins, see the My VMware page and the Resolved Issues section.


The number of concurrent contexts of the resource manager of an ESXi host might exceed the maximum of 512 due to an error in the dispatch logic. In case of slow secondary host or network problems, this might result in DiskQueue is full errors and fail synchronization of virtual machines in operations run by the Site Recovery Manager.


A vSAN network failure might impact accessibility of vSAN objects and VMs. After a network recovery, the vSAN objects regain accessibility. The hostd service reloads the VM state from storage to recover VMs. However, for a linked-clone VM, hostd might not detect that the parent VM namespace has recovered its accessibility. This results in the VM remaining in inaccessible state and VM snapshot information not being displayed in vCenter Server.


These guidelines provide technical requirements for federal agencies implementing digital identity services and are not intended to constrain the development or use of standards outside of this purpose. These guidelines focus on the authentication of subjects interacting with government systems over open networks, establishing that a given claimant is a subscriber who has been previously authenticated. The result of the authentication process may be used locally by the system performing the authentication or may be asserted elsewhere in a federated identity system. This document defines technical requirements for each of the three authenticator assurance levels. This publication supersedes corresponding sections of NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-63-2.


This technical guideline applies to digital authentication of subjects to systems over a network. It does not address the authentication of a person for physical access (e.g., to a building), though some credentials used for digital access may also be used for physical access authentication. This technical guideline also requires that federal systems and service providers participating in authentication protocols be authenticated to subscribers.


The out-of-band device SHOULD be uniquely addressable and communication over the secondary channel SHALL be encrypted unless sent via the public switched telephone network (PSTN). For additional authenticator requirements specific to the PSTN, see Section 5.1.3.3. Methods that do not prove possession of a specific device, such as voice-over-IP (VOIP) or email, SHALL NOT be used for out-of-band authentication.


To use it, edit your conf/bblayers.conf file to include this directory on the list of directories in BBLAYERS. Similarly, you should also add the layers meta-oe, meta-python, and meta-networking from meta-openembedded, since packages in those layers are used in some of the images included in meta-bluefield/recipes-bsp/images.


The Temporal metric group reflects the characteristics of a vulnerability thatmay change over time but not across user environments. For example, the presenceof a simple-to-use exploit kit would increase the CVSS score, while the creationof an official patch would decrease it.


Scoring Guidance: When deciding between Network and Adjacent, if an attack canbe launched over a wide area network or from outside the logically adjacentadministrative network domain, use Network. Network should be used even if theattacker is required to be on the same intranet to exploit the vulnerable system(e.g., the attacker can only exploit the vulnerability from inside a corporatenetwork).


The Remediation Level of a vulnerability is an important factor forprioritization. The typical vulnerability is unpatched when initially published.Workarounds or hotfixes may offer interim remediation until an official patch orupgrade is issued. Each of these respective stages adjusts the Temporal Scoredownwards, reflecting the decreasing urgency as remediation becomes final. Thelist of possible values is presented in Table 10. The less official andpermanent a fix, the higher the vulnerability score.


IT vendors release software and firmware updates (patches) on a regular basis to address defects and security vulnerabilities. Manually keeping track of what vulnerabilities exist for various products located across a network is time-consuming and expensive. At the large organization level, the costly but effective practices of vulnerability and patch management reduce cyber security risks.


BC.3.2 Organizations should activate any software firewalls included on the devices that are within organizational networks OR document the alternative measures in place instead of these firewalls.


For mobile connectivity, organizations should instruct users to disable automatic connections to open Wi-Fi networks and avoid unknown Wi-Fi networks; Organizations should consider using a VPN if they require connectivity to public Wi-Fi networks. Organizations should limit Bluetooth and other near-field communication (NFC) protocols for the exchange of sensitive information. Organizations should also instruct users to select the most secure connectivity option available, such as using data over cellular networks rather than public Wi-Fi networks.


If the software update fails to install, you'll get an error screen. However, this only means the software didn't install properly. The device will power back on with original software and will prompt you again to install the software update.If you don't have a strong connection to Wi-Fi or the Verizon Wireless network, you may not be able to perform a software update over the air. Instead, you can connect your device to a computer with Internet access. Connect your device to your computer using your USB cable, then download the Software Upgrade Assistant tool to your computer, which will check for software updates and initiate the software update process.


Devices on insecure networks are open to multiple attack vectors. Mobile devices and removable media can be stolen or lost. Attackers can gain access to covered systems through wireless devices connected to the network.


Attackers make unauthorized use of administrative privileges to discover and compromise covered data. High-risk activities increase the likelihood of introducing malicious code that takes advantage of unpatched vulnerabilities.


Attackers can more readily discover and exploit vulnerabilities in services and applications when those systems are unnecessarily open to untrusted networks. A compromised system may be able to send confidential data to unauthorized systems.


Resource Custodians and anyone moving covered data through a network must use secure, authenticated, and industry-accepted encryption mechanisms. (See the Encryption in transit guidelines for important considerations and exceptions regarding this control.)


Users, Resource Proprietors, and Resource Custodians must ensure that all devices accessing covered data, regardless of their location, comply with the requirements defined in the UC Berkeley Minimum Security Standard for Networked Devices as if they were on the campus network. 2ff7e9595c
