A new Sun Alert Notification from Sun Microsystems has been issued and is described below. Additional information about this issue may be found on the sunsolve.sun.com website, although a maintenance contract with Sun may be required to view the information.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2008-3104 to this issue.
Avaya system products include an Operating System with the product when it is delivered. Avaya Call Management System (CMS) and Avaya Interactive Response (IR) are both shipped with an operating system from Sun Microsystems. Actions to be taken on those products are described below.
| Product: | Affected Version(s): | Risk Level: | Actions: |
|---|---|---|---|
| Avaya CMS | All | Low | CMS does not support remotely loaded Java applets, therefore the Java patches will not be certified for use with CMS. |
| Avaya IR | 2.0, 3.0 | Low | IR does not use or support any browser activity from the IR system by default. Since this is unsupported, the Java patches will not be certified for the current IR releases. |
Recommended Actions:
For all vulnerable system products,
Avaya recommends that customers restrict local
and network access to the server. This restriction should be
enforced through the use of physical security, firewalls, ACLs,
VPNs, and other generally-accepted networking practices until such
time as an update becomes available and can be installed.
Additional information may also be available via the Avaya support website and through your Avaya account representative. Please contact your Avaya product support representative, or dial 1-800-242-2121, with any questions.
