description | According to its version number, the Retrospect Backup Client installed on the remote host is affected by several vulnerabilities : - An error in the client may lead to memory corruption and in turn a denial of service condition when processing specially crafted packets, although only when an English client is used on a Chinese operating system, which is not a supported configuration. - The password hash is sent over the network unencrypted, which could result in its disclosure. - A NULL pointer dereference error may lead to a denial of service condition. |
