Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in various CA products, which could be exploited by remote attackers to take complete control of an affected system.
The first issue is caused due to insufficient path verification by the logging service (caloggerd), which could allow a remote attacker to append data to arbitrary files via a directory traversal, leading to system compromise.
The second vulnerability is caused by buffer overflow errors in various "xdr" functions, which could be exploited by remote attackers to crash an affected application or execute arbitrary code.
