DescriptionNVD

Dell Wyse Management Suite (WMS), versions prior to 2605.0.2, contain a Use of Hard-coded Credentials vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Unauthorized access.

AnalysisAI

Hard-coded credentials in Dell Wyse Management Suite (WMS) versions prior to 2605.0.2 expose management-plane access to any low-privileged local user who discovers them. Exploitation yields high confidentiality and integrity impact - an attacker can read sensitive management data and alter system state - while availability is unaffected. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but the CWE-798 class is historically trivial to exploit once credentials are extracted from binaries or configuration files.

Technical ContextAI

Dell Wyse Management Suite is an enterprise endpoint management platform for thin-client fleets, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:dell:wyse_management_suite_(wms):*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*. CWE-798 (Use of Hard-coded Credentials) indicates that static credentials are compiled into or shipped with the software - discoverable by reverse engineering binaries, reading configuration files, or consulting public firmware dumps. In the context of a management suite, hard-coded credentials typically target internal service accounts, database connections, or inter-component APIs, making them useful for lateral movement or privilege escalation within the WMS management plane rather than providing immediate OS-level root access.

RemediationAI

The primary fix is to upgrade Dell Wyse Management Suite to version 2605.0.2 or later, as detailed in 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. If immediate patching is not possible, restrict local interactive and remote desktop access to the WMS server to only those administrator accounts that require it - this mitigates the PR:L requirement by reducing the pool of users who can attempt exploitation, though it does not eliminate the embedded credentials. Audit local user accounts on WMS hosts and remove unnecessary low-privileged accounts. Network-segment the WMS server so that lateral movement from compromised endpoints to the management host requires crossing a monitored boundary. These compensating controls reduce exposure but do not remove the hard-coded credential, so patching remains the definitive remediation.
