This specific flaw exists within the bpjava-msvc daemon due to incorrect
handling of format string data passed through the

port 13722 and affects both NetBackup clients and servers.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable NetBackup installations. Authentication is not required to
