APP: Arkeia Network Backup Type 77 Overflow

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the Arkeia Network Backup Agent. Versions 5.3.3 and prior are vulnerable. A successful attack can allow attackers to execute programs on the target host with root or system privileges.

Extended Description

The Knox Arkeia Server is prone to a remotely exploitable stack-based buffer overrun. The issue occurs because the software fails to do sufficient bounds checking when handling data contained within a type 77 request packet. A remote attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the vulnerable service.
