The security issue is caused due to the application not correctly encrypting backups when the backup destination is an FTP server, which can be exploited to disclose sensitive information by e.g. intercepting the transfer. The security issue is confirmed in Acronis True Image Echo Server build 8072 for Linux. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not rely on the encryption when backing up onto FTP servers. Create local backups and transfer them manually.
