The service utility in EMC Avamar 5.x before 5.0.4 uses cleartext to transmit event details in (1) service requests and (2) e-mail messages, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network.

Security readout for executives and security teams

EMC Avamar 5.x before 5.0.4 could send service event details in cleartext through service requests and email. If an attacker can observe that traffic, they may read sensitive operational information. The record does not provide a CVSS score or evidence of active exploitation. Exposure is most likely where legacy EMC Avamar 5.x systems below 5.0.4 remain in use and service utility traffic or event emails traverse observable networks or insecure mail paths. Treat this as a legacy backup-platform exposure check. It is not flagged as actively exploited, but backup environments can contain sensitive operational data and should not transmit support details in cleartext. Mitigation focus: Upgrade EMC Avamar 5.x deployments to 5.0.4 or later per vendor guidance.; Review EMC advisory ESA-2011-007 for supported remediation details.; Restrict service utility traffic to trusted management networks where upgrade is delayed..
