Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM Mac), versions prior to 2.3.0.1005, contain an Improper Access Control vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of privileges and arbitrary code execution.
AnalysisAI
Elevation of privileges and arbitrary code execution in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM) for macOS exposes endpoints running versions prior to 2.3.0.1005 to local privilege escalation attacks. An improper access control flaw (CWE-284) allows a low-privileged local account to bypass access controls enforced by DDPM, ultimately achieving arbitrary code execution with elevated rights. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an interactive local session on the target macOS system with a low-privileged (non-administrator) account, as confirmed by the CVSS vector PR:L and AV:L. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 (High) is supported by the vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, which reflects low attack complexity, no user interaction, and full impact across all three security properties - consistent with a reliable local privilege escalation primitive. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | The primary remediation is to upgrade Dell Display and Peripheral Manager for macOS to version 2.3.0.1005 or later, as specified in Dell security advisory DSA-2026-319 (https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000490035/dsa-2026-319). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, audit all macOS endpoints to identify those running Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM) versions prior to 2.3.0.1005 and document deployment scope and user access patterns. …
