DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered two vulnerabilities in HP Data
Protector Media Operations, which can be exploited by malicious
people to disclose potentially sensitive information and compromise a
vulnerable system.

1) An error in DBServer.exe when processing certain packets can be
exploited to download arbitrary files via a specially crafted packet
containing directory traversal specifiers sent to TCP port 19813.

2) A signedness error in DBServer.exe when copying data from certain
packets can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a
specially crafted packet sent to TCP port 19813.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow execution of
arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version A.06.20. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted hosts only.
