Multiple vulnerabilities exist in BrightStor ARCserve Backup that can allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, execute arbitrary code, or take privileged action. The first set of vulnerabilities occur due to insufficient bounds checking by multiple components. The second vulnerability occurs due to privileged functions being available for use without proper authorization. The third set of vulnerabilities are due to a memory corruption occurring with the processing of RPC procedure arguments by multiple services. The vulnerabilities allow an attacker to cause a denial of service, or potentially to execute arbitrary code.
