Merlin uses Bash in X86_64 initrd64.pxe (WE8S) and uinitrd (ARM) Bth versins are updated with latest patch t be cmpatible with shellshck fix. Bash has been updated t versin 4.3 and updated 29 latest patches till Oct-13-2014. Merlin is update fr X86_64 & ARM Issue Fixes Issue Number Issue Descriptin Reslutin CIR - 81150 Shellshck Fix fr GNU Bash vulnerability Bash has been updated t latest versin 4.3 with latest patch t be cmpatible with shellshck fix What is Shellshck? Shellshck is the name given t vulnerabilities in Bash, a shell prgram distributed n Linux, Unix, and OS X systems. Because these vulnerabilities are relatively easy t explit and the impact t systems is high, NIST has rated this a 10/10 in severity. A flaw was fund in the way Bash evaluated certain specially crafted envirnment variables. An attacker may use an arbitrary cmmand t disclse sensitive system infrmatin, r t write files elsewhere n the server s file system (similar t a file uplad vulnerability). Successful explitatin f this vulnerability may allw an attacker t execute arbitrary cmmands in the cntext f the vulnerable HTTP CGI server. Used in cnjunctin with ther attacks, an attacker may be able t cmpletely cmprmise an unprtected system. Fr mre infrmatin abut these vulnerabilities, please see CVE-2014-6271, CVE-2014-6277, CVE-2014-6278, CVE-2014-7169, CVE-2014-7186 and CVE-2014-7187 n the NIST website.

WDM Encryptin Infrmatin TIR Classificatin Data The fllwing criteria are used when assigning a TIR classificatin: TIR Classificatin Descriptin 1 TIR is f a very serius nature and has a prbability f affecting > 1% f custmers. A TIR with this classificatin must be fixed befre Prductin Release. 2 TIR has less ptential impact n custmer, (prbability f affecting < 1% f custmers), but is still f a serius nature. A TIR with this classificatin must be fixed befre Prductin Release. 3 TIR is f a mderately serius nature but a wrk-arund exists. TIR has a prbability f affecting > 1% f custmers. A TIR with this classificatin shuld be cnsidered strngly when making Prductin Release determinatin. 4 TIR is f a minr nature, typically invlving cmpatibility issues, and has a prbability f affecting < 1% f custmers. A TIR with this classificatin shuld be cnsidered when making Prductin Release determinatin. 5 TIR is f a very minr nature, typically invlving csmetic prblems. These TIRs typically d nt have t be fixed befre Prductin Release. The fllwing criteria are used t determine which TIR s must be fixed befre the firmware can be cnsidered fr release t prductin: TIR s with a classificatin f 1 r 2 must be fixed befre the firmware can be cnsidered fr release t prductin. On a case by case basis, the TIR Review Bard may chse t WDM 5.0 MR1.1 HF050027314 wrkgrup Page 7 f 8
verride the requirement t fix individual TIRs which wuld therwise blck release t prductin f a designated build. TIR s with a classificatin f 3, 4, r 5 will be fixed if the fllwing cnditins are true: The TIR can be fixed with a minimal ptential fr adversely affecting the firmware. There is adequate space remaining in the firmware t accmmdate the fix. TIR s with a classificatin 3, 4, r 5 need nt be fixed if the fllwing cnditins are true: The TIR is a carry-ver frm a previusly released prduct, and n reprts frm the field have been received. The TIR is a carry-ver frm a previusly released prduct, r exists in the current release f this prduct, and a fix culd ptentially cause backward cmpatibility prblems. Time required t perfrm and test the fix negatively impacts the prductin release schedule. 2014 Dell Inc.
