IBM Spectrum Protect Plus 10.1.0 through 10.1.6 Administrative Console could allow an authenticated attacker to upload arbitrary files which could be execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable server. This vulnerability is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-4470. IBM X-Force ID: 187188.

The IBM Spectrum Protect Plus (SPP) administrative console running on the remote host is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability due to the fact that it allows remote installation of console plugins. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this and CVE-2020-4711 together, via specially crafted HTTP requests, to execute arbitrary code on the system with root privileges.

Note that the application is reportedly affected by other vulnerabilities; however, this plugin has not tested for those issues.
