Mcafee hips 7 patch 9 release notes

For example, 5. All sustaining and build releases are cumulative; however, we do not release all build numbers. The build number for this release is 5.

However, if the same interface has a secondary IP address, the VPN Client uses the secondary IP address to transmit all traffic once the session is established. The actual time it takes to connect might vary from customer to customer.

By default, Windows 7 enables IPv6. The only workaround is to disable IPv6 on the endpoint. In addition, you should be aware of the known caveats in this release. Refer to 'Known Caveats' on page 17 of this document for the list of known problems. If a VPN 4. A pop-up message appears, allowing you to reconnect the VPN connection. However, selecting reconnect may not re-establish the VPN tunnel.

This situation occurred with the VPN 4. The client disconnects after going into any hibernate or standby situations. This behavior was tracked with the defect ID CSCsf and resolved; however, Cisco cannot guarantee that this solution will work on all hardware platforms and operating systems.

If you do see the behavior described in the defect, use the following workaround:. When you awaken your computer, re-establish the Cisco VPN session. A split-dns value containing wildcards can cause a system failure when a Windows user accesses certain URLs. For example, the split-dns value a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,no,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,w,x,y,z can cause a system failure. To avoid these failures, move the VPN adapter to the top of the binding order list of network adapters.

Note that Split DNS requires entries only for internal domains. You might encounter the following compatibility issues when using the VPN Client with specific applications. Whenever possible, this list describes the circumstances under which an issue might occur and workarounds for potential problems.

The following known issues might occur with the indicated Microsoft Windows operating systems and applications software. Therefore, when using the VPN Client, we do not recommend enabling this feature or running front-end applications that enable it such as Connectify or Virtual Router. The VPN Client does not detect a dialup connection made with Microsoft Connection Manager because of incompatibilities between the requirements of the two applications.

If you are having problems, check your network properties and remove the WINS entries if they are not correct for your network. However, it does not conflict with an installed Token Ring interface. Run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client. This message does not affect operation of the VPN Client.

The issue occurs when Microsoft Outlook is installed but not configured for email, although it is the default mail client. It is caused by a Registry Key that is set when the user installs Outlook.

VPN Encapsulation adds to the overall message length. The default MTU adjusted value is for all adapters. If the default adjustments are not sufficient, you may experience problems sending and receiving data.

To avoid fragmented packets, you can change the MTU size, usually to a lower value than the default. Refer to the following table for the specific procedures for each type of connection. The MTU is the largest number of bytes a frame can carry, not counting the frame's header and trailer.

A frame is a single unit of transportation on the Data Link Layer. It consists of header data, plus data that was passed down from the Network Layer, plus sometimes trailer data. An Ethernet frame has an MTU of bytes, but the actual size of the frame can be up to bytes byte header, 4-byte CRC trailer.

Common failure indications include the following:. If you do not experience a problem, do not change the MTU value. Usually, an MTU value of works. Decrement the MaxFrameSize value by 50 or until it works. This does not cause any problems and can be ignored. AOL Version 6. AOL Version 7. This requires the use of split tunneling to support the polling mechanism.

Without split tunneling, AOL disconnects after a period of time between 5 and 30 minutes. When making a dialup connection with AOL 7. The AOL dialup process uses a fallback method which, if your initial attempt to connect fails, resorts to a different connection type for the second attempt.

When this happens, the VPN Client cannot connect. This is a known issue, and AOL is investigating the problem. To work around this issue, try to reconnect the dialup connection and try to avoid getting two PPP adapters. You will need to restart the program. EXE, generated an application error. The result of such errors is that the ZoneAlarm GUI does not run, and therefore a user cannot change any settings in ZoneAlarm Plus or allow new programs to access the Internet.

Windows 7 and Vista leave the client hanging while it attempts to disconnect upon awakening after hibernation. Note: If you are on ESM 6. Download this document from Protect Usage Notes SSL Client Authentication After Patch Installation If you have configured SSL Client Authentication prior to applying this patch, and if you used keytoolgui to generate keypairs and certificates, then you must regenerate them after applying the patch and before restarting services.

Enable iframe of Command Center Pages To allow iframing of Command Center pages, you can add the following optional setting in server. Below is an example of "allow. The first entry is origin, while the second is key-value pair: allow. If there is matching entry, then iframing is allowed for configured origin. If origin is specified in the HTTP request, but is not presented in "allow.

It might also be needed to login to Command Center without iframing from the browser once. Opening Command Center directly creates browser's cookie for the target host. By default, the cookies for iframed pages are not created. Nested Storage Groups When creating a storage group in the ArcSight Command Center, do not nest this new group under an existing group: this means the archiving path of one group must not be under the archiving path of another group.

Nesting storage groups increases the archive space utilization for that group. Preserving Reference Pages Information This information applies to tiered ESM architectures where the network model would be similar across ESM installations, and would therefore have the same networks and zones. When you are forwarding events from a source to a destination in this type of architecture, the Reference Pages information a resource group attribute would be the same in the source and in the destination.

If the Reference Pages information for a given resource group is not found in the destination, make sure the Network attribute of the forwarding connector is set. Then make sure the specified network belongs to a zone. It is important that your network model is defined correctly, and that connector configurations have the correct Network setting. This connector setting applies to all connectors being used, including Forwarding Connector. Once the card is successfully authenticated through that client, the middleware for example ActivClient might skip card authentication, when you repeat PKCS 11 login from the original client.

The topic applies to ESM Appliance used in high availability configurations. Page with error Description 20 Step c directs you to edit the.

Correction: This step needs to add that you must perform this on both appliances, the primary and secondary. The metadata partition already exists on each system. Workaround: Use the symbolic link created when the Patch was installed to invoke the Console Patch Uninstaller on the Mac, instead of the binary directly.

Section Compliance ArcSight recognizes the importance of accessibility as a product initiative. To that end, ArcSight continues to make advances in the area of accessibility in its product lines.

Geographical Information Update This version of ESM includes an update to the geographical information used in graphic displays. Vulnerability Updates This release includes recent vulnerability mappings from the September Context Update.

Installing ESM Version 6. Patch installers are available for all supported platforms. Note: Keep the following points in mind when installing Patch 2: l For all components and platforms: Make sure that you have enough space available before you install the patch. The installer checks for 1 GB of space and generates an error if it is not available. If you run into disk space issues during installation, create enough space, restore the component base build from the backup, then resume patch installation.

To install a patch, make sure that the user who owns the base build installation folder has full privileges on the PATH where the base build is installed. Do not simply rename files and leave them in the same directory. Java reads all the files present, regardless of renaming, and can pick up old code inadvertently, causing undesirable results.

Each component has install and uninstall steps. Caution: Do not interrupt the patch install process for example, do not press Ctrl-C or log off. Interrupting the process would cause issues. Verifying the Downloaded Installation Software HPE provides a digital public key to enable you to verify that the signed software you received is indeed from HPE and has not been manipulated in any way by a third party.

Be sure to verify the patch file; see "Verifying the Downloaded Installation Software" on the previous page. As user arcsight, extract the tar file.

Place the copy in a readily accessible location. This is a precautionary measure so you can restore the system to the original state, if necessary. Caution: HPE recommends that you do not simply rename files and leave them in the same directory. From the directory where you extracted the tar file, run the patch installer as user arcsight:. Read through the license agreement and accept it at the end.

In GUI mode, the acceptance radio button is disabled until you scroll to the bottom of the agreement. Enter key until you have paged through to the end of the license agreement.

Select a location for the uninstaller link, if you want to have a shortcut to the uninstaller in some other location. You must have write permission to the specified folder. Check the pre-installation summary to verify that all the locations listed are correct and that you have enough disk space to install this patch.

Press Enter to start the installation. When the installation is complete press Enter to Exit. Note: If you have configured SSL Client Authentication prior to applying this patch, and if you used keytoolgui to generate keypairs and certificates, then you must re-generate them after finishing applying the patch and before re-starting services. Or, to uninstall using Console mode, run:. The following steps do not include information for installing a Console patch on those platforms.

Exit the ArcSight Console. This is a precautionary measure so you can restore the original state, if necessary.

Y represents the Console build number. Run one of the following executables specific to your platform: l On Windows: Double-click Patch Read the instructions provided and Press Enter. Accept the terms of the license agreement and press Enter. This update resolves a number of stability issues seen on high-availability servers, domain controllers, and backup servers.

Refer to online knowledgebase article KB for the most current readme details. Host IPS 7. The update corrects a problem with duplicate agent entries in the query results report views.

The following binaries are version 7. Reference: Resolution: A delay during service startup could cause this message to be displayed inappropriately. Internal timeouts have been increased to allow for a delay during service startup. Issue: The mfevtps. Resolution: mfevtps. This unneeded verification has been removed. Resolution: Host IPS 7.

This IP fragment size enforcement has been removed, allowing delivery of noncompliant IP fragments. Issue: A fingerprint-only firewall rule incorrectly matches and blocks unassociated network traffic. Resolution: Issues with the firewall rule-matching logic have been resolved. Issue: Returning packets of outgoing traffic were blocked as incoming traffic.

Issue: Incomplete information for the system process caused invalid matching of firewall rules that showed ports and open.

Resolution: Process-related information was missing for the system process. This was resolved by adding a computation for the system process. Resolution: The code to monitor Microsoft's vulnerability CVE was removed because Microsoft had already patched it. Issue: Memory leak in MFe0 tag on multi-processor systems. Resolution: A large number of reference objects were being created per process.

This was optimized to decrease the non-page memory usage. Issue: FireSvc. Resolution: A race condition existed between the FireSvc.

The communication mechanism for Windows Security Center has been re-designed to remove the race condition. Resolution: The VTP driver failed to verify the presence of content drivers on dynamic disks.

VTP driver verification now works correctly. Resolution: Added logging for unrecognizable non-IP traffic. Both recognized and unrecognized non-IP traffic is now logged. Issue: Rule match is not made when using both Path and File section in Program class rule. Resolution: The Microsoft Vista path mechanism was using a drive prefix that was not consistent with the non-Vista mechanism, which stripped the drive prefix.

The drive prefix is explicitly stripped on Vista to be consistent. Issue: Connection Aware Group matching fails when the incoming traffic destination is localhost. Resolution: Fixed matching logic of Connection Aware Groups to identify incoming traffic correctly to localhost.

Resolution: System instability was caused by excessive kernel stack usage when third party VPN drivers were loaded.

A mechanism was introduced to switch to a new kernel stack if the current stack is full. This feature has been removed. Issue: Memory corruption in mfehidk. Resolution: The operating system was releasing the process before it was finished, which lead to memory corruption. The process reference count has now been incremented to prevent the operating system from releasing the process prematurely. Resolution: Introduced a new internal API to check write-protected memory address instead of using an existing Windows API, which may trigger unnecessary exceptions.

Issue: Excessive IPv4 packet fragmentation causes a loss of network connectivity on high availability servers or domain controllers. Resolution: Large amounts of fragmented packets could exhaust the memory pool.

A cleanup mechanism was introduced to recover the memory pool consumed by incomplete packets. Issue: The FireSvc. Reference: , , , , Resolution: All client rule processing and data access handling has been reviewed and optimized. Resolution: The process injection code has been optimized to prevent instability.

Issue: IPv4 packet fragmentation could cause the client system to fail. Resolution: The IPv4 fragmentation algorithm was reworked to fix faulty logic in segmented frame handling.

Resolution: The isapi. Issue: Client system was unable to authenticate to a domain controller when the lsass. Reference: , Resolution: Core process injection stability enhancements were made to prevent the failure. Resolution: Unsolicited inbound traffic was not being matched by the Connection Aware Group.
