MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 1 tactic: Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an attacker who already holds low-privilege authenticated access to the Dell OpenManage Integration running within Microsoft Windows Admin Center (PR:L), and network reachability to that management host (AV:N). No user interaction is required (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). The limiting factors are the authentication prerequisite and the restricted deployment surface - the flaw is only reachable on systems where the Dell OpenManage Integration extension (versions prior to 3.7.0) is installed in Windows Admin Center, typically Dell server management environments, not general-purpose hosts. |
| Impact | This is a credible high-priority issue where multiple signals align rather than conflict. The vendor-provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, base 8.8) indicates network-reachable, low-complexity OS command injection (CWE-78) that yields full confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss - effectively remote code execution on the host running the Dell OpenManage Integration for Windows Admin Center. The one meaningful limiting factor is PR:L: the attacker must already hold low-privilege authenticated access, so this is privilege escalation to code execution rather than a fully unauthenticated takeover. Exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis' - there is no CISA KEV listing and no POC referenced in the provided data. EPSS is not provided, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified; absence of EPSS/KEV/POC is not evidence of safety but does mean active exploitation is not currently confirmed. There is no SSVC decision record in the input. Net: a genuinely dangerous RCE-class flaw whose real-world urgency is tempered by the authentication prerequisite and the absence of any confirmed exploitation signal - prioritize patching in Dell-managed Windows environments, but it is not (yet) a drop-everything actively-exploited emergency. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged authenticated user with network access to the Windows Admin Center server hosting the Dell OpenManage Integration submits a request to an affected feature, embedding shell metacharacters into an input that is passed unsanitized into an OS command. The injected command executes with the privileges of the integration service, giving the attacker remote code execution on the management host. No public exploit code is identified at the time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 06, 2026
OS command injection in Dell OpenManage Integration for Microsoft Windows Admin Center (versions prior to 3.7.0) allows an authenticated low-privileged remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the management host, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability requires network access (AV:N) and low privileges (PR:L) but no user interaction (UI:N), and it is only reachable where the Dell OpenManage Integration extension is installed. No public exploit code or active exploitation is currently identified; the vendor has released a security advisory (DSA-2026-442) with a fix in version 3.7.0.
RemediationAI
Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Dell OpenManage Integration version 3.7.0 or later as per the advisory (https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000515026/dsa-2026-442-security-update-for-dell-openmanage-integration-with-microsoft-windows-admin-center). If immediate patching is not possible, restrict network access to the Windows Admin Center host to trusted management subnets and enforce strong authentication for all accounts, including low-privilege users. Since exploitation requires authenticated access, audit and minimize the number of low-privilege accounts with access to the extension. Additionally, monitor for suspicious child processes spawned by the OpenManage Integration service. Note that restricting access may limit remote management capabilities, and disabling the extension entirely would remove Dell management functionality from Windows Admin Center.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is a classic OS command injection (CWE-78) affecting Dell OpenManage Integration, an extension that integrates Dell server management capabilities into Microsoft Windows Admin Center. Windows Admin Center is a browser-based management tool for Windows Servers, clusters, and hyper-converged infrastructure. The extension likely fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before passing it to a system shell, allowing an attacker with low privileges to inject arbitrary commands. The CVSS vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) indicates a network-accessible, low-complexity attack that requires authenticated low privileges and results in high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The affected CPE cpe:2.3:a:dell:openmanage_integration:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms that all versions of the product are potentially vulnerable, with the advisory specifying versions prior to 3.7.0 as affected.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
Dell OpenManage Integration with Microsoft Windows Admin Center, versions prior to 3.7.0, contains an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Remote execution.
Executive ViewAI
Dell OpenManage Integration for Microsoft Windows Admin Center (versions prior to 3.7.0) contains an OS command injection flaw that allows an authenticated low-privileged attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the management host. This could disrupt or compromise managed Dell server infrastructure, affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit has been identified at the time of analysis, but leadership should prioritize remediation because this component often holds privileged access to critical systems.
