Symptoms:
	PHSS_26905:

	1. If DNS or hosts file resolves LOCALHOST (i.e. localhost
	   in upper case) to 127.0.0.1, then Object Manager
	   authentication based on local host will fail.  The
	   package will fail to start with a Server security
	   violation.  For example, in the case of the
	   ContinentalClusters product, cmrunpkg will report
	   the following:

	   # cmrunpkg  ccmonpkg
	   cmrunpkg  : Local authentication failed
	   Server security violation
	   Error: Cannot start package ccmonpkg:  Disallowed by the
	   ContinentalClusters product

	PHSS_25901:

	1. API client connection to a "cmomd" gets aborted with
	   a core dump when the "where clause" in the query string
	   is exactly a multiple of 128 bytes long.

Defect Description:
	PHSS_26905:

	1. In the authentication provider, we did not compare
	   hostname against localhost in a case insensitive
	   manner.

	   Resolution: Perform a case insensitive comparison
	   while comparing hostname to "localhost".

	PHSS_25901:

	1. Query engine didn't allocate the memory before appending
	   a termination character to an incoming string
	   while processing a where clause from the query string.
	   Under heavy system load when OM tried to free up
	   reference to this memory location it core dumped.

	   Resolution:  Reallocate the query string memory
	   required to accomodate the termination character.

Enhancement:
	No
