AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Local-only vector (AV:L) with specific trigger conditions (AC:H); low privilege required to initiate; scope change reflects privilege gain beyond the originating WMS process context.

Dell Wyse Management Suite (WMS), versions prior to 2605.0.2, contain an Incorrect Default Permission vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Privilege Escalation.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in Dell Wyse Management Suite (WMS) versions prior to 2605.0.2 enables a local low-privileged attacker to gain elevated system control by exploiting incorrectly set default permissions on files or resources managed by the WMS platform (CWE-269). The CVSS vector confirms a scope change (S:C) with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, meaning a successful exploit transcends the initially compromised process context. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an attacker to hold a valid low-privileged local account on the host running Dell WMS versions prior to 2605.0.2 - remote unauthenticated access is not viable given the AV:L local attack vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The vendor-assigned CVSS score of 7.8 reflects a local-only attack vector (AV:L) that requires existing low-privileged access (PR:L) and elevated complexity (AC:H), collectively acting as meaningful barriers to casual exploitation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker with a low-privileged local account on a WMS server locates an improperly permissioned file or directory - such as a service binary path or a configuration directory writable by non-administrative users - that is periodically accessed by a privileged WMS service or scheduled task. By replacing or modifying the targeted resource at the precise moment required by the AC:H complexity condition, the attacker causes the privileged process to load and execute their payload, escalating to full system privileges. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade Dell Wyse Management Suite to version 2605.0.2 or later, which is confirmed as the remediated release per Dell advisory DSA-2026-329 at https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000493271/dsa-2026-329-security-update-for-dell-wyse-management-suite-wms-for-multiple-vulnerabilities. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
