APP: CA ARCserve NetBackup File Upload

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against CA ARCserve NetBackup. A successful attack can lead to the upload of an arbitrary file. It is suggested that this signature only be used to inspect traffic from the Internet and NOT on your internal networks, as it will trigger on every file upload.

Extended Description

Computer Associates ARCserve Backup for Laptops and Desktops is prone to multiple remote issues, including a buffer-overflow vulnerability and a denial-of-service vulnerability. 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.
