Detailed Description |
The VERITAS Backup Exec Agent is vulnerable to an unauthenticated registry access vulnerability. VERITAS Backup Exec is a data backup and recovery solution with support for over the network backup. Backup Exec for Windows Servers versions 9.0 through 10.0 are vulnerable to an unauthenticated registry access vulnerability, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input in the RPC handlers defined in beserver.exe. By sending a specially-crafted RPC request with ID 93841fd0-16ce-11ce-850d-02608c44967b to the RPC service listening on TCP port 6106, a remote attacker could access the affected Windows system's Registry with administrative privileges.
