CVSS:
CVSS Base Score: 6.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/71026 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS String: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P)

AFFECTED PLATFORMS:

All TS3100 and TS3200 tape libraries with firmware versions less than A.60.

REMEDIATION:

The recommended solution is to apply the fix for each named product. The fix is contained in firmware versions A.60 and above.

Fix:
Apply firmware version A.60 or later available from IBM Fix Central - _ _http://www-933.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/

Workaround:
