Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) FastBack versions 5.5.0.0 through 5.5.6.0 IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) FastBack versions 6.1.0.0 through 6.1.0.1
Description The issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers located after a | (pipe) character in a string, specifically in the Eventlog function in FastBackServer.exe.
Recommendations For versions 5.5.0.0 through 5.5.6.0, consider restricting access to the Eventlog function in FastBackServer.exe until a patch is available. For versions 6.1.0.0 through 6.1.0.1, consider restricting access to the Eventlog function in FastBackServer.exe until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using format string specifiers located after a | (pipe) character in a string in the affected function.
