Package        : amanda
Version        : 1:3.5.1-2+deb10u1
CVE ID         : CVE-2022-37704
Debian Bug     : 1029829

It was discovered that there was a potential privilege escalation
vulnerability in the "amanda" backup utility.

The SUID binary located at /lib/amanda/rundump executed /usr/sbin/dump
as root with arguments controlled by the attacker, which may have led
to an escalation of privileges, denial of service (DoS) or information
disclosure.

For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version
1:3.5.1-2+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your amanda packages.
