Dell ThinOS 10, versions prior to 2605_10. 2616, contains an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Command execution.
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Dell ThinOS 10 (versions prior to 2605_10.2616) allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to inject and execute arbitrary OS commands via improper neutralization of special elements in a command context (CWE-78). Dell released the vulnerability itself (DSA-2026-389) and a fixed build is available; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not on CISA KEV.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), no special conditions beyond network reachability - remote unauthenticated exploitation against affected default configurations of Dell ThinOS 10 prior to build 2605_10.2616. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are internally consistent and point to a genuinely high-severity issue: CVSS 3.1 is 9.8 with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H - network-reachable, low complexity, no privileges, no user interaction, full CIA impact. … 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: update Dell ThinOS 10 to build 2605_10.2616 or later, per Dell DSA-2026-389 (https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000502746/dsa-2026-389-security-update-for-dell-thinos-10-for-multiple-vulnerabilities), typically pushed through Wyse Management Suite / ThinOS image management. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
