CA.BrightStor.ARCserve.Discovery.Buffer.Overflow

description-logoDescription

This vulnerability affects the BrightStor ARCserve/Enterprise backup software. The vulnerability results from a remote buffer overflow. This issue is due to a failure of the application to securely copy data from the network, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a large packet to TCP port 41523. An attacker may execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable computer, potentially facilitating unauthorized superuser access. A denial of service condition may arise as well.
