APP: Autonomy Connected Backup Type 13 Command Injection
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Autonomy Connected Backup. It is due to insufficient validation of commands contained in "Type 13" messages. A remote attacker can exploit this by by sending a maliciously crafted Type 13 command to an affected system. In a successful code injection attack, the behavior of the target host is entirely dependent on the intended function of the injected code and executes within the security context of the currently logged in user. If the attack is unsuccessful, the vulnerable application can terminate abnormally.
Extended Description
The Agent service in Iron Mountain Connected Backup 8.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted opcode 13 request that triggers use of the LaunchCompoundFileAnalyzer class to send request data to the System.getRunTime.exec method.
