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 Download of Code Without Integrity Check vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to command execution.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution via a download-without-integrity-check flaw affects Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) 5.0 in both its Appliance and Application deployment forms. An unauthenticated network-adjacent attacker who can achieve a man-in-the-middle position between the SCG system and Dell's update infrastructure can substitute malicious code for legitimate downloads, leading to command execution on the appliance. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to achieve a man-in-the-middle position on the network path between the Dell SCG Appliance or Application and Dell's remote update/download infrastructure - confirmed by CVSS AC:H. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS base score of 7.4 reflects the real limiting factor: AC:H requires the attacker to establish a MITM position, which is non-trivial in hardened enterprise networks. … 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 Upgrade Dell SCG 5.0 Appliance to version 5.36.00.16 or later, and Dell SCG 5.0 Application to version 5.36.00.00 or later, per vendor advisory DSA-2026-382 (https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-in/000503426/dsa-2026-382-security-update-for-dell-secure-connect-gateway-virtual-edition-multiple-vulnerabilities). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
