Summary

HPE Data Protector versions prior to 7.03_108, 8.x before 8.15, and 9.x before 9.06 are susceptible to remote code execution due to insufficient authentication controls. This flaw allows remote attackers to exploit specific vectors, leading to the execution of arbitrary code. This vulnerability stems from an incomplete resolution of a previous issue. Organizations using affected versions are at risk and should prioritize applying the necessary updates to mitigate potential exploits.
