The Data Protection component in the VMware vSphere GUI in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environments: Data Protection for VMware (aka Spectrum Protect for Virtual Environments) 6.3 before 6.3.2.5, 6.4 before 6.4.3.1, and 7.1 before 7.1.4 and Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager for VMware (aka Spectrum Protect Snapshot) 3.1 before 3.1.1.3, 3.2 before 3.2.0.6, and 4.1 before 4.1.4 allows remote attackers to obtain administrative privileges via a crafted URL that triggers back-end function execution.

The server in IBM Spectrum Protect (aka Tivoli Storage Manager) 5.5 and 6.x before 6.3.5.1 and 7.x before 7.1.4 does not properly restrict use of the ASNODENAME option, which allows remote attackers to read or write to backup data by leveraging proxy authority.

Client Acceptor Daemon (CAD) in the client in IBM Spectrum Protect (formerly Tivoli Storage Manager) 5.5 and 6.x before 6.3.2.5, 6.4 before 6.4.3.1, and 7.1 before 7.1.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a crafted Web client URL.

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Databases: Data Protection for Microsoft SQL Server (aka Spectrum Protect for Databases) 5.5 before 5.5.6.2, 6.3 before 6.3.1.6, 6.4 before 6.4.1.8, and 7.1 before 7.1.4; Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail: Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange Server (aka Spectrum Protect for Mail) 5.5 before 5.5.1.1, 6.1 and 6.3 before 6.3.1.6, 6.4 before 6.4.1.8, and 7.1 before 7.1.4; and Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager for Windows (aka Spectrum Protect Snapshot) 2.x and 3.1 before 3.1.1.6, 3.2 before 3.2.1.8, and 4.1 before 4.1.4, when application tracing is configured, write cleartext passwords during changetsmpassword command execution, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the application trace output.

The Reporting and Monitoring component in Tivoli Monitoring in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager 6.3 before 6.3.6 and 7.1 before 7.1.3 on Linux and AIX uses world-writable permissions for unspecified files, which allows local users to gain privileges by writing to a file.

The mailbox-restore feature in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail: Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange Server 6.1 before 6.1.3.6, 6.3 before 6.3.1.3, 6.4 before 6.4.1.4, and 7.1 before 7.1.0.2; Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager: FlashCopy Manager for Microsoft Exchange Server 2.1, 2.2, 3.1 before 3.1.1.5, 3.2 before 3.2.1.7, and 4.1 before 4.1.1; and Tivoli Storage Manager FastBack for Microsoft Exchange 6.1 before 6.1.5.4 does not ensure that the correct mailbox is selected, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information via a duplicate alias name.

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Databases: Data Protection for Microsoft SQL Server 7.1 before 7.1.2, Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail: Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange Server 7.1 before 7.1.2, and Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager 4.1 before 4.1.2 place cleartext passwords in exception messages, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading GUI pop-up windows, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-6557.

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Databases: Data Protection for Microsoft SQL Server 5.5 before 5.5.6.1, 6.3 before 6.3.1.5, 6.4 before 6.4.1.7, and 7.1 before 7.1.2; Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail: Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 before 5.5.1.1, 6.1 before 6.1.3.7, 6.3 before 6.3.1.5, 6.4 before 6.4.1.7, and 7.1 before 7.1.2; and Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager 3.1 before 3.1.1.5, 3.2 before 3.2.1.7, and 4.1 before 4.1.2, when application tracing is used, place cleartext passwords in exception messages, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading trace output, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-4949.

dsmtca in the client in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) 5.4.x, 5.5.x, 6.x before 6.4.3, and 7.1.x before 7.1.2 allows local users to discover the backup/restore encryption-key password via unspecified vectors.

The (1) Java GUI and (2) Web GUI components in the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) Backup-Archive client 5.4 and 5.5 before 5.5.4.4 on AIX, Linux, and Solaris; 5.4.x and 5.5.x on Windows and z/OS; 6.1 before 6.1.5.7 on z/OS; 6.1 and 6.2 before 6.2.5.2 on Windows, before 6.2.5.3 on AIX and Linux x86, and before 6.2.5.4 on Linux Z and Solaris; 6.3 before 6.3.2.1 on AIX, before 6.3.2.2 on Windows, and before 6.3.2.3 on Linux; 6.4 before 6.4.2.1; and 7.1 before 7.1.1 in IBM TSM for Mail, when the Data Protection for Lotus Domino component is used, allow local users to bypass authentication and restore a Domino database or transaction-log backup via unspecified vectors.
