Issue/Introduction

TMA-P7500 Patch for Shell Shock Vulnerability.

Resolution

This patch can be applied to any TMA irrespective of the TMA software version. Steps for applying the patch are given below.

1). Download the patch file "/AvailableDownloads/Messaging/TMA/patch-48814-TMA.tgz" from mft.tibco.com using your support.tibco.com login credentials.


2). Copy the patch package to the TMA as root.

$ scp patch-48814-TMA.tgz root@<appliance-mgmt-ip>:
or you can use the sftp account to upload the file and then change the permission as root.


3). Log into the appliance with the root account.


4). Unpack the patch package.

$ tar zxf patch-48814-TMA.tgz


5). Enter the patch-48814 directory.


6). Run the patch script with “-i” to install.

$ ./patch-48814 -i


7). Logout.


Note that the patch script can be run with the -c flag. If this flag is specified, the script will verify if the patch has already been applied and check if the patch can be applied to this appliance. The patch script can be run with the -u flag. If this flag is specified, the script will uninstall a previous application of the patch. A restart will be required to complete the uninstall. This process does not require a reboot of the appliance.
