Synopsis

The version of Veeam Backup and Replication installed on the remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Veeam Backup and Replication installed on the remote Windows host is 12.x prior to 12.2.0.334. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including:

 - A vulnerability allowing unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE). (CVE-2024-40711)

 - A vulnerability that allows a user who has been assigned a low-privileged role within Veeam Backup & Replication to alter Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) settings and bypass MFA. (CVE-2024-40713)

 - A series of related high-severity vulnerabilities, the most notable enabling remote code execution (RCE) as the service account and extraction of sensitive information (saved credentials and passwords). (CVE-2024-40710)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Veeam Backup and Replication version 12.2.0.334 or later.
