NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream backup-manager package and not the backup-manager package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

backup-manager-upload in Backup Manager before 0.6.3 provides the FTP server hostname, username, and password as plaintext command line arguments during FTP uploads, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by listing the process and its arguments, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-2766.
