Focus on bacula vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 21 Aug 2025, 22:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with bacula. We track both calendar-based metrics (using fixed periods) and rolling metrics (using gliding windows) to give you a comprehensive view of security trends and risk evolution. Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total bacula CVEs: 2
Earliest CVE date: 20 Sep 2005, 22:03 UTC
Latest CVE date: 29 Jul 2025, 20:15 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2025-45346
30-day Count (Rolling): 1
365-day Count (Rolling): 1
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): 0%
Year Variation (Calendar): 0%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): 0.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): 0.0%
Average CVSS: 4.51
Max CVSS: 7.5
Critical CVEs (≥9): 0
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 3 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 2 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 2 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 0 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for bacula, sorted by severity first and recency.
SQL Injection vulnerability in Bacula-web before v.9.7.1 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTTP GET request.
Bacula-web before 8.0.0-rc2 is affected by multiple SQL Injection vulnerabilities that could allow an attacker to access the Bacula database and, depending on configuration, escalate privileges on the server.
SQL injection vulnerability in joblogs.php in Bacula-Web 5.2.10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the jobid parameter.
The dump_resource function in dird/dird_conf.c in Bacula before 5.2.11 does not properly enforce ACL rules, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain resource dump information via unspecified vectors.
mtx-changer.Adic-Scalar-24 in bacula-common 2.4.2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/mtx.##### temporary file, probably a related issue to CVE-2005-2995.
make_catalog_backup in Bacula 2.2.5, and probably earlier, sends a MySQL password as a command line argument, and sometimes transmits cleartext e-mail containing this command line, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain the password by listing the process and its arguments, or by sniffing the network.
bacula 1.36.3 and earlier allows local users to modify or read sensitive files via symlink attacks on (1) the temporary file used by autoconf/randpass when openssl is not available, or (2) the mtx.[PID] temporary file in mtx-changer.in.
