I've just read the two existing threads on this product. I've also upgraded SAS to beyond the version quoted as potentially being an issue. PSI still reports this prog as insecure. As far as I can see, the owner of SAS says this is a false positive, but Secunia either have ignored this or do not accept it. Could we have some feedback from Secunia now to confirm whteher in their opinion this is in fact an issue, or is it a false positive? Thanks Colin |

Hello Colin . Are you using PSI in "advanced" mode ?? If not , select tte "option" top right of any PSI page . If so , where is PSI showing your version of SAS ; I have version 4.37.0.1000 reported in the "patched" - this is the latest version . Do you have this (or possibly an earlier but still secure) version displayed in the "patched" tab . If you have an earlier version displayed in the "insecure tab" , what is the version number and where is it installed :ie: the "installation path" ?? If you click the [+] next to the/a "problem" programme it will expand and give you more information to help trace things ; if you cannot fix it yourself , post all the details back here . Let us know how you go anyway . Anthony -- It always seems impossible until its done. Nelson Mandela |

Hi and thanks for the feedback and so promptly. I had 4.37, but I had managed to get it as well as 4.32, so the old "alegedly insecure" version was still there. So the latest version is passed by PSI. Thanks -- ***************** Colin Mac Scotland ***************** |

Hello Colin aka Colin Mac , PSi shows the latest "secure" version in PSI "patched" tab plus later bug fixes etc. versions , if you update your programme for them ; it checks for the "latest" patched version and even if there is an insecurity in that programme - because there is not a patch available - it goes in the "patched " tab :ie: you have done all you can . The Advisory 38917 for SAS says that there is a partial fix by updating to version 4.34.1000 has has not been amended since ; whether that version and those in between up to 4.37.1000 would/should show in "patched" or "insecure" , I could not say . A Secunia secret , but in this case I would always go for the most recent SAS version , to err on the side safety , one hopes . Take care of your multiple personalities .
