Title: | BackupPC 'ClientNameAlias' Function Security Bypass Vulnerability |
Summary: | This host has BackupPC intallation and is prone to security; bypass vulnerability. |
Description: | Summary: This host has BackupPC intallation and is prone to security bypass vulnerability. Vulnerability Insight: The security issue is due to the application allowing users to set the 'ClientNameAlias' option for configured hosts. This can be exploited to backup arbitrary directories from client systems for which Rsync over SSH is configured as a transfer method. Vulnerability Impact: Successful attacks may allow remote authenticated users to read and write sensitive files by modifying ClientNameAlias to match another system, then initiating a backup or restore on the victim's system. Affected Software/OS: BackupPC version 3.1.0 and prior. Solution: Update to version 3.1.0-7 or later. CVSS Score: 8.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C |
