The _CalcHashValueWithLength function in FastBackServer.exe in the Server in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) FastBack 5.5.0.0 through 5.5.6.0 and 6.1.0.0 through 6.1.0.1 does not properly validate an unspecified length value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by sending data over TCP.
