Dell PowerStore contains an Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere vulnerability. An authenticated user with limited privileges could potentially exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with root privileges..
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation to root on Dell PowerStore storage appliances allows an authenticated user with limited privileges to execute arbitrary code at the operating system's highest privilege level. Affecting the full PowerStore T and Q product families (500T through 7000T confirmed via CPE), this CWE-829 flaw exploits the inclusion of functionality from an untrusted control sphere - meaning a low-privileged local user can influence a privileged execution path by supplying or manipulating untrusted code or configuration loaded by a higher-privileged process. …
