RESOLUTION

The vulnerability can be resolved by either of the two following options:

Software Purge Option : HP provides a script that is run by the switch manager 
using the show tech custom command. This script will delete the file(s) and 
directory without exposing a personal computer to the files on the compact 
flash. The operation of the switch is not impacted. This option is best for 
customers wanting to maximize the uptime of their network.

Hardware Replacement Option : For those customers who have 5400 zl switch 
inventory that is not on their network and must be purged, this option allows 
for the Management Module to be replaced. Also, any customer that feels 
uncomfortable performing the Software Purge Option can choose the Hardware 
Replacement Option as well. An advanced replacement Management Module will be 
sent to the customer. Once it arrives, the original Management Module is 
returned to HP after the new one is installed. The downside to this option is 
that the 5400 zl switch must be powered down in order to replace the Management 
Module, resulting in downtime.

Please contact HP support for direct assistance acquiring the software purge 
script or the hardware replacement option:
