Patch_SG0003510_Release_Note This release note describes patch SG0003510 ToolTalk security issue, CERT CA-98.11. 1.1 Supported_Software_Platforms This patch is to ToolTalk 1.3 runtime software. This patch will install on any system on which ToolTalk 1.3 is installed. 1.2 Bugs_Fixed_by_Patch_SG0003510 This patch contains fixes for the following bugs in ToolTalk 1.3: o ToolTalk security issue, CERT CA-98.11 (Bug #632028) 1.3 Subsystems_Included_in_Patch_SG0003510 This patch release includes these subsystems: o patchSG0003510.tooltalk_sw.runtime 1.4 Installation_Instructions Because you want to install only the patches for problems you have encountered, patch software is not installed by default. After reading the descriptions of the bugs fixed in this patch (see Section 1.2), determine the patches that meet your specific needs. If, after reading Sections 1.1 of these release notes, you are unsure whether your software meet the requirements for installing a particular patch, run inst. The inst program does not allow you to install patches that are incompatible with your hardware or software. Patch software is installed like any other Silicon Graphics software product. Follow the instructions in your Software Installation Administrator's Guide. Follow these steps to select a patch for installation: 1. At the Inst> prompt, type install patchSGxxxxxxx where xxxxxxx is the patch number. - 2 - 2. Initiate the installation sequence. Type Inst> go 3. You may find that two patches have been marked as incompatible. (The installation tools reject an installation request if an incompatibility is detected.) If this occurs, you must deselect one of the patches. Inst> keep patchSGxxxxxxx where xxxxxxx is the patch number. 4. After completing the installation process, exit the inst program by typing Inst> quit 1.5 Patch_Removal_Instructions To remove a patch, use the versions remove command as you would for any other software subsystem. The removal process reinstates the original version of software unless you have specifically removed the patch history from your system. versions remove patchSGxxxxxxx where xxxxxxx is the patch number. To keep a patch but increase your disk space, use the versions removehist command to remove the patch history. versions removehist patchSGxxxxxxx where xxxxxxx is the patch number. Ocassionally the call stack view shows instead of the function name. Performance experiments on IRIS GL programs will sometimes give incorrect results when call stack samples originate in the GL libraries. The assembly routines for some functions do not have the proper directives to allow SpeedShop to correctly unwind the stack through some GL routines, therefore user routines that call these GL routines will not show up in the stack trace, and possibly not in the function list and call graph if said user routines do not have hits of their own. - 3 -
