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 an Use of Hard-coded Cryptographic Key vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to information disclosure.
AnalysisAI
Hard-coded cryptographic key exposure in Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) 5.0 enables remote information disclosure by allowing an attacker who extracts the embedded key to decrypt protected communications or data stores. Both the Appliance (versions prior to 5.36.00.16) and Application (versions prior to 5.36.00.00) variants of SCG 5.0 are affected per Dell advisory DSA-2026-382. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker must obtain or have prior access to the SCG binary to extract the hardcoded key through reverse engineering - this is the primary limiting precondition. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | There is a direct contradiction between the provided CVSS vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, scoring 4.4) and the vulnerability description, which states 'an unauthenticated attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability.' PR:H (high privileges required) is inconsistent with unauthenticated exploitation - this discrepancy must be verified against the full vendor advisory (DSA-2026-382). … 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 | Vendor-released patch is available. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
