Synopsis

Description

The IBM Spectrum Protect server or storage agent running on the remote host is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability due to improper invalidation of user-supplied data during communication exchanges. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a series of specially crafted messages, to execute arbitrary code on the system with instance id privileges or cause the server or storage agent to crash.
