NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bacula package and not the bacula package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

In Bareos Director less than or equal to 16.2.10, 17.2.9, 18.2.8, and 19.2.7, a heap overflow allows a malicious client to corrupt the director's memory via oversized digest strings sent during initialization of a verify job. Disabling verify jobs mitigates the problem. This issue is also patched in Bareos versions 19.2.8, 18.2.9 and 17.2.10.
