DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in various CA products, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.

The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors in some RPC
routines within the the Alert Notification Server (alert.exe). These
can be exploited to cause stack-based buffer overflows by sending
specially crafted RPC requests to the RPC interface with GUID
3d742890-397c-11cf-9bf1-00805f88cb72 using the SMB protocol.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but
requires valid user credentials on Windows XP and newer systems.

The vulnerabilities affect the following products:
* CA Threat Manager for the Enterprise (formerly eTrust Integrated
Threat Management) r8
* CA Protection Suites r3
* BrightStor ARCserve Backup r11.5
* BrightStor ARCserve Backup r11.1
* BrightStor ARCserve Backup r11 for Windows
* BrightStor Enterprise Backup r10.5
* BrightStor ARCserve Backup v9.01
* BrightStor ARCserve Client agent for Windows
