Q1What is this vulnerability? (Essence + Consequences)
π¨ **Essence**: Arcserve UDP allows **Authentication Bypass**. π **Consequences**: Attackers can execute **ANY task** as an **Administrator**. π₯ **Impact**: Complete compromise of backup integrity and system control.
Q2Root Cause? (CWE/Flaw)
π‘οΈ **Root Cause**: Information Leakage. π **Flaw**: The `getVersionInfo` method at `/WebServiceImpl/services/FlashServiceImpl` leaks the **AuthUUID token**.β¦
π’ **Vendor**: Arcserve. π¦ **Product**: Unified Data Protection (UDP). π **Affected Versions**: **9.0.6034** and **earlier** versions. β οΈ Check your version immediately!
Q4What can hackers do? (Privileges/Data)
π **Privileges**: Full **Administrator** access. π **Data**: Can execute **any task**. π **Action**: No authentication required to gain this level of control. π« **Defense**: Effectively bypassed.
Q5Is exploitation threshold high? (Auth/Config)
πΆ **Network**: Requires being on the **same network** or having network access. π **Auth**: **No login** needed. π― **Threshold**: **LOW**. Easy to scan and exploit if exposed.
Q6Is there a public Exp? (PoC/Wild Exploitation)
π» **Public Exp**: **YES**. π **PoC**: `ArcServeRadar.py` (Python script) available on GitHub. π **Scanner**: Nuclei templates exist. π **Wild Exp**: Active scanning tools are available.
Q7How to self-check? (Features/Scanning)
π **Self-Check**: Run `ArcServeRadar.py` to broadcast and find instances. π‘ **Look For**: `ArcServeRadar` responses showing version info. π§ͺ **Test**: Check if `getVersionInfo` leaks the AuthUUID token.β¦
π οΈ **Fix**: Update to a version **newer than 9.0.6034**. π₯ **Action**: Visit Arcserve support or official site for patches. π **Ref**: KB000015720 provides official guidance. β **Status**: Fixable via upgrade.
Q9What if no patch? (Workaround)
π§ **No Patch?**: Isolate the service. π« **Block**: Restrict network access to the UDP web services. π **Mitigate**: Disable unnecessary ports (e.g., 6969, 62197). π **Limit**: Reduce attack surface until patched.
