In case anyone has not seen this and your Veeam Installation is being flagged for being Vulnerable by Vulnerability Scanning Software, have a look at the following.

https://www.veeam.com/kb4523

Your Veeam Installations are not vulnerable as SOCKS5 is not used and the affected binaries can be manually removed.

Affects:

Veeam Backup & Replication
Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows
Veeam Agent for Linux
Veeam Cloud Connect



Just to add, it’s great that Veeam is so open about this and provide instructions on how to mitigate it. Wish other vendors would do the same.
