@benjojo There’s an IPMI brute-force around, if that's not what you're doing here.

CVE-2013-4786

https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=emr_na-c04197764

This is reportedly unfixable on various HP servers.

“HPSBHF02981 rev.4 - HPE Integrated Lights-Out 2, 3, 4, 5 (iLO 2, iLO 3, iLO 4, and iLO 5) and HPE Superdome Flex RMC - IPMI 2.0 RCMP+ Authentication Remote Password Hash Vulnerability (RAKP)”

TL;DR: ask nicely for a weakly-hashed IPMI password, then crack it offline.

On at least some of these boxes, the iLO command that blocks this access:

MP:CM> sa -lanipmi d

#openvms #itanium #security #ipmi

@hkrn wasn't #HPUX the #UNIX for #Itanium #Servers?

@mrmasterkeyboard @hexaheximal I hope not, but then again there were also calls to yeet #i486 / #i486SX support.

• Which would really suck because a lot of newly deployed #embedded systems in #industrial applications are still i486SX-#ISA based like the low-spec #Vortex86 offering #Vortex86SX...

Which you may know from the #Wee86 by @rasteri …

But in the end #support will be up to the #Linux community and @torvalds ...

I.e. #Itanium support as shortly dropped after that got #EoL'd because it was a dead-on-arrival shitshow and basically any buyer stuck with #HPUX on #IA64 anyway…
