General
Problem Reports
PR 89262
On an OS7000 series switch, NESSUS reports bogus "Vulnerabilities". Basically, NESSUS collects all
those known attacks/vulnerablities into their test suites.
For Example,
NESSUS sends: http://<switch-address>/cgi/bin/guestbook.cgi
WebView/HTTP-Server's response: Prompts user for the default switch login page (which is the normal
operation for our embedded server).
Since our HTTP server replies with some form of an HTTP response, NESSUS mistakenly concludes that
the HTTP server is vulnerable to this attack.
Workaround: There is no known workaround at this time.
802.1X
Problem Reports
PR 70452
On an OS7000 series switch, even after the PC is successfully authenticated to a port, the status on the PC
shows as not authenticated when using 802.1X with XP SP-1/SP-2.
Workaround: This is a problem in the Microsoft XP driver.
PR 72546
On an OS6624/6648 switch, after the supplicant is authenticated and the port is open-global, non-suppli-
cant on that port will be on the supplicant's VLAN. It only supports one VLAN per port. The default
should be moved from the original default VLAN to the supplicant's assigned VLAN after the supplicant
is authenticated to the port. This behavior is different from the OS7000/OS8800 platform, which can
support more than one VLAN per port.
Workaround: There is no known workaround at this time.
