This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Symantec VERITAS NetBackup products. Attackers can chain commands in the request to execute arbitrary commands with elevated privileges or to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable computer to gain unauthorized access in the context of the application.
NetBackup is prone to multiple vulnerabilities, including two buffer-overflow issues and a privilege-escalation issue. A remote attacker may exploit these issues to execute arbitrary commands with elevated privileges or to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable computer to gain unauthorized access in the context of the vulnerable application. These vulnerabilities affect all builds and platforms of NetBackup Enterprise Server and client/NetBackup Server and client versions 5.0, 5.1, and 6.0.
