Severity by source
AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
PR:L reflects the practical prerequisite of controlling an enrolled mapped host; AC:H captures the non-trivial condition of having an established SAN initiator registration on the array.

3DescriptionCVE.org
Dell PowerStore contains a Missing Authorization vulnerability. An attacker with access to a mapped host could exploit this vulnerability to read from or write to LUNs that the host is not authorized to access, bypassing per-initiator LUN access controls and leading to protection mechanism bypass.
AnalysisAI
Missing authorization enforcement in Dell PowerStore storage appliances allows any attacker who has gained control of a mapped host connected to the array to read from or write to LUNs beyond those assigned to that initiator, effectively nullifying per-initiator LUN masking. Affected models span the full PowerStore T and Q product lines (500T through 7000T and beyond), as disclosed by Dell under advisory DSA-2026-330. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker must control a host whose initiator identity (iSCSI IQN, Fibre Channel WWN, or NVMe NQN) is already registered in the PowerStore host mapping configuration - this is the primary limiting condition. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 8.1 (High) rating with vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H reflects a network-reachable flaw with complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact, but the AC:H modifier is the critical qualifier: exploitation requires the attacker to already control a host that is mapped and connected to the array, making this far less opportunistic than a typical unauthenticated network flaw. … 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 | Apply the security update detailed in Dell advisory DSA-2026-330 at https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000497829/dsa-2026-330-dell-powerstore-t-security-update-for-multiple-vulnerabilities; the exact patched firmware version is not specified in available data and must be retrieved directly from the advisory. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, audit all mapped hosts connected to affected PowerStore arrays (models 500T through 7000T) and conduct security assessment of host access controls and hardening posture; simultaneously establish enhanced monitoring on storage array access patterns to detect anomalous LUN access attempts. …
