This got us last night as well when we upgraded from FP2 to AI R55
HFA04. Nokia engineer gave us a specific SK (whose number eludes me),
but to turn off the DCE-RPC smartdefense checking (i.e. "malformed"
dce-rpc checks that dcom with it's semi-random uuid's trips) and make it
act like FP2 regarding DCE-RPC you go into $FWDIR/lib/dcerpc.def and
change the line for "ALLOW_135" from zero to 1, then push.
In our case, doing this allowed the dce-rpc portmapper requests to flow,
but fw-1 still built state table entries based on the port numbers seen
in the rpc response.

Hi
After an upgraded to R54 we experience the following problems.
Alert Rejects on rule 998, which is this CP specific client-to-server
DCE RPC error.
We followed the solution as discussed under:
http://www.checkpoint.com/securitycenter/advisories/2003/cpai-2003-11.html
which is:
1.) Create specific DCE-RPC rules with you UUID
2.) replace dcerpc.def
3.) modify table.def
4.) restart CP
Unfortunately nothing has changed! We still have the rejects. We
even put now the ALL_DCE_RPC service in the specific rule, but
it still doesn't work!
Now we read in the release notes of R55 that there are several issues
resolved
with the DCE-RPC.
Now our questions:
- How can we turn this SmartDefense stuff off for the DCE-RPC????
- Did we something wrong (see steps above or in the link)????
- Did anyone else experience similar problems???
- If we upgrade to R55 is it enought to upgrade the management server
or do we need to upgrade also all the nodes?????
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Regards
Philippp
