"The remote host is running an IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) client.
The version running on the remote host has one or more of the
following vulnerabilities :

  - A remote stack-based buffer overflow in the client
    acceptor daemon (CAD) scheduler could lead to the
    execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2009-3853)

  - A remote, stack-based buffer overflow in the traditional
    scheduler could lead to the execution of arbitrary
    code. (CVE-2009-3854)

  - There is an unspecified, unauthorized access
    vulnerability in the Unix, Linux, and OS/400 API clients
    when specifying the MAILPROG option.  This vulnerability
    reportedly allows a remote attacker to modify arbitrary
    files on the remote host. (CVE-2009-2855)"
