DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in HP Data Protector,
which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) An error in the client within the omni_chk_ds.sh script when
processing the "EXEC_CMD" command can be exploited to provide and
execute a malicious script file.

2) An input validation error in the client when processing the
"EXEC_CMD" command to execute files in the local bin directory can be
exploited to interact with a Perl interpreter via specially crafted
input.

3) An error in the client when processing the "EXEC_SETUP" command to
download and execute a setup file can be exploited to execute an
arbitrary file.

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities may allow execution
of arbitrary code, but may require tricking a client into connecting
to a malicious server.

4) An error in the Cell Manager Service (crs.exe) when validating the
username, domain, and hostname credentials can be exploited to gain
administrative access to the management server.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow execution of
arbitrary code on all clients managed by the Cell manager.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version A.06.00 (build PHSS_36622
/ PHSS_36623 / DPSOL_00294 / DPLNX_00029 and DPWIN_00384).

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted hosts only.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
