The Tape Engine in CA (formerly Computer Associates) BrightStor ARCserve Backup 11.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via certain RPC procedure arguments, which result in memory corruption, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-6076.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CA BrightStor ARCserve Backup 11.5 and earlier had a flaw in its Tape Engine component. A remote attacker could crash the backup service and may be able to run arbitrary code. This matters because backup servers often hold privileged access and sensitive recovery data. Exposure is most likely where CA BrightStor ARCserve Backup 11.5 or earlier is still deployed and its Tape Engine RPC service is reachable over a network, especially from untrusted segments. Prioritize legacy backup environments. Even without confirmed exploitation in the bundle, remote memory corruption affecting backup software creates meaningful business risk because compromise or outage can weaken recovery capability during incidents. Mitigation focus: Identify any CA BrightStor ARCserve Backup 11.5 or earlier systems.; Review CA vendor notices for supported update or upgrade guidance.; Restrict Tape Engine RPC access to trusted backup administration networks..
