Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client versions 5.1.0.0 through 5.1.8.2 IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client versions 5.2.0.0 through 5.2.5.3 IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client versions 5.3.0.0 through 5.3.6.4 IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client versions 5.4.0.0 through 5.4.1.96 IBM TSM Express client versions 5.3.3.0 through 5.3.6.4

Description The issue is related to multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the dsmagent.exe component of the Remote Agent Service. This can be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through either a request packet that is not properly parsed by a generic string handling function or a crafted NodeName in a dicuGetIdentifyRequest request packet. The vulnerability is associated with both the Web GUI and Java GUI components.

Recommendations For IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client versions 5.1.0.0 through 5.1.8.2, update to a version outside of this range. For IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client versions 5.2.0.0 through 5.2.5.3, update to a version outside of this range. For IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client versions 5.3.0.0 through 5.3.6.4, update to a version outside of this range. For IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client versions 5.4.0.0 through 5.4.1.96, update to a version outside of this range. For IBM TSM Express client versions 5.3.3.0 through 5.3.6.4, update to a version outside of this range. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the dsmagent.exe component until a patch is available.
