Title: CA BrightStor ARCserve Backup Mediasvr.exe and

caloggerd.exe Vulnerabilities

Notice Date: 2007-05-16

CA is aware that two functional exploit code samples were

publicized on May 16, 2007. These two denial of service exploits

are associated with vulnerabilities in CA BrightStor ARCserve

Backup Mediasvr.exe and caloggerd.exe.

We have verified that vulnerabilities do exist, and we are now

working on a patch to address the issues. We have given these

vulnerabilities a Medium risk rating.

To mitigate the Mediasvr.exe vulnerability, CA recommends that

BrightStor ARCserve Backup users implement the following temporary

workaround:

1. Rename the "mediasvr.exe" file to a non-functional file

name, such as "mediasvc.exe.disable".

2. Then restart the CA BrightStor Tape Engine service.

This will disable the command line functionality in the product

(i.e. command line utilities such as ca_backup, ca_restore,

ca_merge, ca_qmgr, ca_scan, etc will not work).

After we have completed our analysis of these issues, we will post

an update and patches on the CA SupportConnect website. If

additional information is required, please contact CA Technical

Support at http://supportconnect.ca.com.

If you discover a vulnerability in CA products, please report your

findings to vuln AT ca DOT com, or utilize our "Submit a

Vulnerability" form at
