CVE-2017-8022 describes a buffer overflow vulnerability in the Server service (nsrd) of EMC NetWorker, affecting versions prior to 8.2.4.9, all supported 9.0.x versions, prior to 9.1.1.3, and prior to 9.2.0.4. This high-severity vulnerability (CVSS 8.1) allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service, depending on the target system. While the attack complexity is high, no public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) is available, and there is no evidence of active exploitation or significant community discussion.
