Summary:  

EMC Replication Manager uses scripts that may include unquoted elements in file paths.

After upgrade, customers must re-write existing user scripts to fully mitigate the vulnerability. See Replication Manager Administrator’s Guide (P/N 302-000-519) and refer to the Replication Manager Online Help for instructions how to create scripts.
