An authenticated, low-privileged user with access to the NetBackup Flex OS management shell could supply a specially crafted input to a privileged administrative command, causing it to execute arbitrary code with root-level permissions. Successful exploitation grants the attacker unrestricted control over the Flex appliance host and all hosted containers, fully compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
An authenticated, low-privileged user with access to the NetBackup Flex OS management shell could bypass the cryptographic signature verification step of a privileged support command by supplying a specially formed access credential. Successful exploitation grants the attacker an unrestricted root shell with full control over the Flex appliance host and all hosted containers, completely compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
An authenticated user with access to the NetBackup Flex OS management shell could read arbitrary files from the underlying operating system by supplying a specially crafted path argument to a diagnostic command. Successful exploitation could expose sensitive system configuration and credential material stored on the appliance.
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in InfoScale v.9.1.3 Operations Manager (VIOM) allows an attacker to force the user with an active session into clicking a malicious HTML link, which triggers unintended modifications on VIOM web application without the user's knowledge.
InfoScale CmdServer before 7.4.2 mishandles access control.
InfoScale VIOM 9.1.3 allows XSS.
SQL injection in InfoScale VIOM before v9.1.3 allows remote attackers to escalate privileges.
A Spring MVC or Spring WebFlux application running on JDK 9+ may be vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) via data binding. The specific exploit requires the application to run on Tomcat as a WAR deployment. If the application is deployed as a Spring Boot executable jar, i.e. the default, it is not vulnerable to the exploit. However, the nature of the vulnerability is more general, and there may be other ways to exploit it.
A vulnerability was discovered in Veritas eDiscovery Platform before 10.2.5. The application administrator can upload potentially malicious files to arbitrary locations on the server on which the application is installed.
The XPRTLD web application in Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager (VIOM) before 8.0.0.410 allows an authenticated attacker to upload all types of files to the server. An authenticated attacker can then execute the malicious file to perform command execution on the remote server.
In Veritas NetBackup Appliance before 4.1.0.1 MR3, insecure permissions may allow an authenticated Admin to bypass shell restrictions and execute arbitrary operating system commands via SSH.
The Java Admin Console in Veritas NetBackup through 10.1 and related Veritas products on Linux and UNIX allows authenticated non-root users (that have been explicitly added to the auth.conf file) to execute arbitrary commands as root.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 10.0.0.1 and related Veritas products. The NetBackup Primary server is vulnerable to an XML External Entity (XXE) Injection attack through the DiscoveryService service.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 8.2 and related Veritas products. An attacker with local access can delete arbitrary files by leveraging a path traversal in the pbxexchange registration code.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 10.0 and related Veritas products. The NetBackup Primary server is vulnerable to a SQL Injection attack affecting the NBFSMCLIENT service.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 10.0 and related Veritas products. The NetBackup Primary server is vulnerable to a second-order SQL Injection attack affecting the NBFSMCLIENT service by leveraging CVE-2022-42302.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 10.0.0.1 and related Veritas products. The NetBackup Primary server is vulnerable to a denial of service attack through the DiscoveryService service.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 8.2 and related Veritas products. An attacker with local access can send a crafted packet to pbxexchange during registration and cause a NULL pointer exception, effectively crashing the pbxexchange process.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 10.0 and related Veritas products. The NetBackup Primary server is vulnerable to a SQL Injection attack affecting idm, nbars, and SLP manager code.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 10.0.0.1 and related Veritas products. The NetBackup Primary server is vulnerable to a Path traversal attack through the DiscoveryService service.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 10.0.0.1 and related Veritas products. The NetBackup Primary server nbars process can be crashed resulting in a denial of service. (Note: the watchdog service will automatically restart the process.)
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup through 10.0.0.1 and related Veritas products. The NetBackup Primary server is vulnerable to an XML External Entity (XXE) injection attack through the nbars process.
A Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affects the Veritas Desktop Laptop Option (DLO) application login page (aka the DLOServer/restore/login.jsp URI). This affects versions before 9.8 (e.g., 9.1 through 9.7).
Veritas System Recovery (VSR) versions 18 and 21 store a network destination password in the Windows registry during configuration of the backup configuration. This vulnerability could provide a Windows user (who has sufficient privileges) to access a network file system that they were not authorized to access.
An issue was discovered in Veritas Backup Exec before 21.2. The communication between a client and an Agent requires successful authentication, which is typically completed over a secure TLS communication. However, due to a vulnerability in the SHA Authentication scheme, an attacker is able to gain unauthorized access and complete the authentication process. Subsequently, the client can execute data management protocol commands on the authenticated connection. The attacker could use one of these commands to execute an arbitrary command on the system using system privileges.
An issue was discovered in Veritas Backup Exec before 21.2. It supports multiple authentication schemes: SHA authentication is one of these. This authentication scheme is no longer used in current versions of the product, but hadn't yet been disabled. An attacker could remotely exploit this scheme to gain unauthorized access to an Agent and execute privileged commands.
An issue was discovered in Veritas Backup Exec before 21.2. The communication between a client and an Agent requires successful authentication, which is typically completed over a secure TLS communication. However, due to a vulnerability in the SHA Authentication scheme, an attacker is able to gain unauthorized access and complete the authentication process. Subsequently, the client can execute data management protocol commands on the authenticated connection. By using crafted input parameters in one of these commands, an attacker can access an arbitrary file on the system using System privileges.
In Veritas System Recovery before 16 SP1, there is a DLL hijacking vulnerability in the patch installer if an attacker has write access to the directory from which the product is executed.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup 8.0 and earlier and NetBackup Appliance 3.0 and earlier. Unauthenticated CORBA interfaces permit inappropriate access.
An issue was discovered in Veritas NetBackup 8.0 and earlier and NetBackup Appliance 3.0 and earlier. A local-privilege-escalation race condition in pbxexchange can occur when a local user connects to a socket before permissions are secured.
