The IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (IBM Spectrum Protect) AIX client is vulnerable to a buffer overflow when Journal-Based Backup is enabled. A local attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system or cause a system crash.

Race condition in the client in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) 5.4.0.0 through 5.4.3.6, 5.5.0.0 through 5.5.4.3, 6.1.0.0 through 6.1.5.6, 6.2 before 6.2.5.4, 6.3 before 6.3.2.3, 6.4 before 6.4.2.1, and 7.1 before 7.1.1 on UNIX and Linux allows local users to obtain root privileges via unspecified vectors.

The server in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) 5.x and 6.x before 6.3.5.10 and 7.x before 7.1.1.100 allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and replace file backups by using a certain backup option in conjunction with a filename that matches a previously used filename.

The Data Protection for VMware component in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environments (TSMVE) 6.3 through 7.1.0.2 does not properly check authorization for backup and restore operations, which allows local users to obtain sensitive VM data or cause a denial of service (disk consumption) via unspecified GUI actions.

The traditional scheduler in the client in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) before 6.2.5.0, 6.3 before 6.3.1.0, and 6.4 before 6.4.0.1, when Prompted mode is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (scheduling outage) via unspecified vectors.

The Web GUI in the client in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) 6.3 before 6.3.1.0 and 6.4 before 6.4.0.1 allows man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain unspecified client access, and consequently obtain unspecified server access, via unknown vectors.

Unspecified vulnerability in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Space Management (aka TSM HSM) before 6.2.5.0 and 6.3.x before 6.3.1.0 allows remote attackers to read or modify HSM-managed file system objects via unknown vectors.
