Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the RPC implementation in alert.exe before 8.0.255.0 in CA (formerly Computer Associates) Alert Notification Server, as used in Threat Manager for the Enterprise, Protection Suites, certain BrightStor ARCserve products, and BrightStor Enterprise Backup, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending certain data to unspecified RPC procedures.
CVE-2007-3825 is a security vulnerability that . Impacting 8 products from broadcom, from broadcom, from broadcom and 5 others, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Originally identified in 2007, this vulnerability predates many modern security frameworks and practices. The vulnerability landscape of that era was characterized by different threat models and less mature defense mechanisms compared to contemporary standards.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For broadcom's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
