Wyse Management Suite - Apache Log4j Vulnerability

Good morning,

Due to the recent Apache Log4J vulnerability news, we have this morning conducted a Nessus scan on our estate and our Wyse Management Suite is impacted by this vulnerability.

We are running version 3.3.1.29.

I've looked online and cannot see any Dell articles about this, so can you please advise on what software version will fix this vulnerability?

Thank you.

The cloud based WMS was patched over the weekend and is no longer vulnerable. Kudos to the WMS engineering team for the weekend effort.

A patch for WMS 3.5 for on-premises is expected today along with formal communication.

Expect the patch to be posted on the public support site for WMS, https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/product-support/product/wyse-wms/drivers

We are running WMS 3.3.1 on-prem.  I can't find a download for WMS 3.5, which is required before upgrading to 3.5.1.  Does anyone know where I can download WMS 3.5?

TIA!

 

EDIT:  Disregard!  I found 3.5 under the "earlier versions" link.

Same happened to us, our AV seen the upgrade as a virus and deleted some files. Had to restore the server. Managed to get it upgraded now but memcached won't start anymore.

For the could not retrieve database details error,

WMS Upgrade Failure – Setup could not retrieve database details:

  1. Installer is checking against the installed version of WMS and comparing internally to supported values.
  2. Confirm WMS Version in Portal Admin > Subscription matches Installed Versions under Add/Remove Programs OR “DisplayVersion” value in registry
    1.  
  1. i.      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\
    1. The specific subkey looks to be {1FD6.... on my server, but it could be different for yours.

I had to restore the server to before installation. Our AV was blocking the install and gave me that error. So I had to install 3.5.1 with the AV turned off. 

I need to know what the image path for memcached is meant to be set to now.

Memcached won't start and just get a Not Found error opening the WMS.

We did have a snapshot of the server, that's how I checked the what memcached was set to beforehand.

I copied the same imagepath and appparameters over after upgrading but memcached fails to run now.

ImagePath: "C:\Program Files\DELL\WMS\memcached\memcached.exe" -d runservice -p 11211


AppParameters: "C:\Program Files\DELL\WMS\memcached\memcached.exe" -d runservice -p 11211 -l *SERVERNAME* -U 0

I will try to consolidate replies, apologies if I miss some items:

  1. The Deployment guide has always called out to disable AV when installing/upgrading
    1. https://dl.dell.com/topicspdf/wyse-wms_deployment-guide8_en-us.pdf
    2. buffalobound_0-1639485128776.png

       

  2. The release notes for 3.5.1 specifically call out that migrating directly from 3.3.1 to 3.5.1 is not supported and that you must go to 3.5 first
    1. https://dl.dell.com/content/manual61169974-dell-wyse-management-suite-version-3-x-release-notes.pdf?language=en-us&ps=true
    2. buffalobound_1-1639485215804.png

       

  3. MemcacheD path
    1. My server has it as c:\Program Files\Dell\WMS\Servicemgr\nssm.exe
  4. It is always best practice to take a snapshot of the server, preferably while WMS is shutdown, prior to upgrading.

From Portal Admin > Subscription
HermanGB_0-1639487715675.png
DisplayVersion in registry is "3.5.0.866".
I have tried to change it  to "3.5 866" / "3.5" / "3.5.0" / "3.5.0.0" / "3.5.0.86600". 
Playing around with the values gives me a slightly different error:

"Dell Wyse Management Suite(WMS) v3.5.866 is detected.
Upgrade from this version is not supported. Setup will abort now."
