To resolve advisory SYM17-004 and SYM17-006, Messaging Gateway servers need to be updated to the 10.6.3-2 release and patched with patch 10.6.3-267.

Resolving SYM17-006 requires two steps be completed on *all* Messaging Gateway systems:

  2. On all SMG 10.6.3-2 systems, apply patch 10.6.3-267 as follows
    1. Log into the appliance command line interface (CLI) as admin via ssh
    2. List the available patches: patch list
    3. Review the patch notes: patch -p 10.6.3-267 notes
    4. Apply the patch: patch -p 10.6.3-267 install

Patch Notes

This patch addresses the following issues:

A potential remote code execution via the Control Center.

A potential for Cross Site Scripting in the Control Center.

The ability to enable or disable "Allow email addresses to start with a dash" was inadvertently removed in a previous release; this configuration option has been restored.
