descriptionIBM Spectrum Protect, formerly known as Tivoli Storage Manager, installed on the remote host is version 7.1.x < 7.1.9.300 or 8.1.x < 8.1.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple IBM Db2 remote code execution and privilege escalation vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to gain system-level access to the affected host. Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application
