Retrospect Client Security Vulnerabilities

CVE-2003-0490

The installation of Dantz Retrospect Client 5.0.540 on MacOS X 10.2.6, and possibly other versions, creates critical directories and files with world-writable permissions, which allows local users to gain privileges as other users by replacing programs with malicious code.

CVE-2006-2391

Buffer overflow in EMC Retrospect Client 5.1 through 7.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet to port 497.

CVE-2015-2864

Retrospect and Retrospect Client before 10.0.2.119 on Windows, before 12.0.2.116 on OS X, and before 10.0.2.104 on Linux improperly generate password hashes, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass authentication and obtain access to backup files by leveraging a collision.
