DescriptionCVE.org

Dell SCG 5.0 Appliance versions prior to 5.36.00.16 and Dell SCG 5.0 Application versions prior to 5.36.00.00, contains a Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to denial of service.

AnalysisAI

Exploitation of a TOCTOU race condition in Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) 5.0 - both the Appliance and Application variants - allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause denial of service, with marginal confidentiality and integrity impact as reflected in the CVSS vector (C:L/I:L/A:L). The High Attack Complexity rating (AC:H) indicates reliable exploitation requires precise timing to win the race between the check and use operations. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker requires only network access to the SCG service interface - no authentication or special account privileges are needed (CVSS PR:N). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 5.6 Medium score is supported by the AC:H modifier, which correctly captures the inherent difficulty of winning a race condition reliably over a network connection - timing jitter and network latency make deterministic exploitation challenging. … 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 Dell has released patches addressing this vulnerability. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
