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 Relative Path Traversal vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to remote execution.
AnalysisAI
Relative path traversal in Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) 5.0 allows a low-privileged remote attacker to traverse directory boundaries and achieve remote code execution on affected systems. Both the Appliance variant (versions prior to 5.36.00.16) and the Application variant (versions prior to 5.36.00.00) are affected. …
