VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Yosemite Backup version 8.7
Description A stack-based buffer overflow issue exists in the DtbClsLogin function, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service. This issue is related to the libytlindtb.so library on Linux platforms and the ytwindtb.dll library on Windows platforms. The overflow occurs when a long username field is provided during authentication.
Recommendations For Yosemite Backup version 8.7, consider restricting access to the DtbClsLogin function until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limit the length of the username field to prevent buffer overflow exploitation.
