Die äusserst beliebte Backup-Software für virtuelle Lösungen VEEAM Backup & Replication weist Sicherheitslücken auf, die bereits ausgenutzt werden. Jetzt Patch verfügbar!
Veeam released security updates to patch multiple security flaws in its Backup & Replication software, including a critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability.
Tracked as CVE-2025-59470, this RCE security flaw affects Veeam Backup & Replication 13.0.1.180 and all earlier version 13 builds.
“This vulnerability allows a Backup or Tape Operator to perform remote code execution (RCE) as the postgres user by sending a malicious interval or order parameter,” Veeam explained in a Tuesday advisory.
However, the information technology company adjusted its rating to high severity because it can only be exploited by attackers with the Backup or Tape Operator roles.
“The Backup and Tape Operator roles are considered highly privileged roles and should be protected as such. Following Veeam’s recommended Security Guidelines further reduces the opportunity for exploitability,” it added.
Veeam released version 13.0.1.1071 on January 6 to patch CVE-2025-59470 and address two other high-severity (CVE-2025-55125) and medium-severity (CVE-2025-59468) vulnerabilities that enable malicious backup or tape operators to gain remote code execution by creating a malicious backup configuration file or sending a malicious password parameter, respectively.
Veeam’s Backup & Replication (VBR) enterprise data backup and recovery software helps create copies of critical data and applications that can be quickly restored following cyberattacks, hardware failures, or disasters.
