DescriptionCVE.org

Dell Alienware Command Center (AWCC), versions prior to 6.14.20.0, contain a Least Privilege Violation vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of Privileges.

AnalysisAI

Elevation of privileges in Dell Alienware Command Center (AWCC) versions prior to 6.14.20.0 allows a low-privileged local user to gain higher system access by exploiting a Least Privilege Violation (CWE-272). The application operates with or invokes components carrying excessive privileges, which a local attacker can abuse through an interaction-dependent trigger to achieve full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the affected host. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires: (1) local access to a system running Dell Alienware Command Center version prior to 6.14.20.0 on Alienware hardware, (2) a low-privileged (non-administrator) account on that system, and (3) user interaction as indicated by UI:R in the CVSS vector - this likely means the attacker must interact with an AWCC UI component or IPC mechanism, or a legitimate user's session must be active. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS base score of 7.3 reflects a locally-exploitable privilege escalation with full system impact but a meaningful prerequisite set: local access, a low-privileged account, and user interaction (UI:R). … 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 Upgrade Dell Alienware Command Center to version 6.14.20.0 or later, as specified by Dell advisory DSA-2026-334 at https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000501384/dsa-2026-334-security-update-for-dell-alienware-command-center-6-x-for-multiple-vulnerabilities. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all systems running Dell Alienware Command Center versions prior to 6.14.20.0 through asset inventory and endpoint detection tools; prioritize high-value systems (developers, admins, sensitive data access) for immediate remediation. …
