Symantec has pulled some patches meant to address security flaws in its Veritas Backup Exec “due to quality issues”. The flaws in the Backup Exec Remote Agent “could allow attackers to cause memory access violations or use up all system resources, causing the system to crash and lose backup capability”, which, as the product is used to backup critical data, could be a serious issue. Symantec says it will re-release the patches "shortly".
