Veeam released security updates today to address two Service Provider Console (VSPC) vulnerabilities, including a critical remote code execution (RCE) discovered during internal testing.
VSPC, described by the company as a remote-managed BaaS (Backend as a Service) and DRaaS (Disaster Recovery as a Service) platform, is used by service providers to monitor the health and security of customer backups, as well as manage their Veeam-protected virtual, Microsoft 365, and public cloud workloads.
