Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.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 an Improper Privilege Management vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to elevation of privileges.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) 5.0 allows a local attacker with basic system access to gain full administrative control of the affected host. The root cause is improper privilege management (CWE-269) in both the SCG 5.0 Application (prior to 5.36.00.00) and SCG 5.0 Appliance (prior to 5.36.00.16), as confirmed by Dell advisory DSA-2026-382. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Local access to the host running Dell SCG 5.0 is required; the AV:L metric confirms remote network exploitation is not possible. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 7.8 High score reflects the severity of the achievable impact - complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise - but the local attack vector (AV:L) meaningfully constrains who can realistically exploit it. … 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: upgrade Dell Secure Connect Gateway 5.0 Application to version 5.36.00.00 or later, and Dell Secure Connect Gateway 5.0 Appliance to version 5.36.00.16 or later, as documented in Dell 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. |
