According to its version, the installation of BrightStor ARCserve Backup on the remote host allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected host with SYSTEM privileges due to a buffer overflow that can be triggered by a specially crafted packet sent to the Discovery Service.
Note that the vendor reports only Windows installs are vulnerable.
