how to stop perl service on AIX? how to find if per service runing?
perl is not a service. Can you provide more details of what you are trying to accomplish?
It is because IBM announced a vulnerability for perl: AIX Perl buffer overflow vulnerability
And IBM suggests:
VI. WORKAROUNDS
If you are running perl network services there are no known
workarounds. If the perl services are not needed and are running,
shut them down.
So, I want to know how to shutdown perl.
perl is not running and is not a service. The advisory suggests a work around if you have network programs that are written in perl.
Thank you.
