Weaponized quickly — attackers prioritized this vulnerability. Patch urgently.

Recommendation: Plan a near-term fix — a public PoC already exists.

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.
