NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream percona-xtrabackup package and not the percona-xtrabackup package as distributed by Debian.

The automatic version check functionality in the tools in Percona Toolkit 2.1 allows man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information or execute arbitrary code by leveraging use of HTTP to download configuration information from v.percona.com.
