Title: Computer Associates ARCserve Backup for Laptops and Desktops Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
Computer Associates ARCserve Backup for Laptops and Desktops is an automated backup solution that runs on Microsoft Windows operating systems.
Computer Associates ARCserve Backup for Laptops and Desktops is prone to multiple remote vulnerabilities:
- A buffer-overflow vulnerability occurs because the software fails to perform boundary checks on user-supplied input. This affects the command arguments on the LGServer service.
- A denial-of-service vulnerability occurs because the software fails to sufficiently verify file uploads. This affects the NetBackup service.
Only server installations of the backup software are affected.
Successfully exploiting these issues allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary machine code with SYSTEM-level privileges. This will result in a complete compromise of affected computers. Attackers may also trigger application crashes, denying service to legitimate users.
These issues are related to the ones documented in BID 24348 (Computer Associates ARCserve Backup Multiple Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities). The fixes for CVE-2007-3216 and CVE-2007-5005 did not completely resolve the previous issues.
