To whom it may concern:

  Recent bugtraq discussions under the subject: "Vunerability in HP sysdiag???"
discuss exploitations using the system diagnostics.
  The Hewlett-Packard Co. Security Bulletin #11 dated 12-02-94 concerning
Security Vulnerability in CORE-DIAG fileset references a patch for HP-UX
release 9.04 (PHSS_4749) that has now been superceeded by PHSS_6300.  It also
has a dependency on patch PHKL_6100.  When properly installed both patches
(6300 & 6100) together will circumvent the behavior described.
