Description

It was discovered that the api/storage web interface in Unitrends Backup (UB)
before 10.0.0 has an issue in which one of its input parameters was not validated.
A remote attacker could use this flaw to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary
commands with root privilege on the target system.
