No active exploitation has been confirmed by CISA KEV and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis; Dell has released the corrective patch in version 2.3.0.17 via advisory DSA-2026-320.

Elevation of privilege and arbitrary code execution in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM) for Windows allows a low-privileged local attacker on affected systems to bypass access controls and run code at a higher privilege level. All DDPM versions prior to 2.3.0.17 are affected, as confirmed by Dell advisory DSA-2026-320. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, though tags indicate RCE and authentication bypass primitives are involved, consistent with the CWE-284 root cause.

Local privilege escalation in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM) for Windows enables a low-privileged local attacker to bypass access controls and execute arbitrary code at elevated privileges, affecting all versions prior to 2.3.0.17. The root cause is an improper access control flaw classified as CWE-290 (Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay), through which a standard user account can subvert DDPM's privileged service process and achieve system-level code execution. Dell has released version 2.3.0.17 via advisory DSA-2026-320, and no public exploit or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.

Relative path traversal in Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) versions prior to 11.1.0.2 enables low-privileged remote attackers to read arbitrary files from the underlying server filesystem. The flaw (CWE-23) affects managed node components across Windows, RHEL 8.10, RHEL 9.4, and SLES 15 deployments, as confirmed by Dell advisory DSA-2026-326. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but the high confidentiality impact in a privileged server management context elevates practical risk beyond the moderate CVSS base score alone.

Improper authentication in Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) Managed Node before version 11.1.0.2 allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to bypass authentication controls and gain unauthorized access to the systems management interface across Windows, RHEL 8.10/9.4, and SLES 15 deployments. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.8 (network vector, no privileges, no user interaction) with total confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC lists exploitation as none, but the trivial attack path makes prompt patching important.

Sensitive information disclosure in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator (VSI) for VMware vSphere Client, all versions prior to 10.11.1.0, lets an unauthenticated remote attacker retrieve active session credentials and hijack authenticated sessions, including those of administrators. Because stolen session tokens grant full impersonation of legitimate users, Dell rates this critical (CVSS 9.8); there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, but the SSVC framework flags it as automatable with total technical impact. EPSS remains low at 0.39% (32nd percentile), consistent with the absence of observed exploitation to date.

Remote code execution in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator (VSI) for VMware vSphere Client, all versions prior to 10.11.1.0, lets an unauthenticated remote attacker inject OS commands through the IAPI component and run them as root on the appliance's host OS. Because the flaw requires no authentication and no user interaction over the network, it enables full compromise of the VSI deployment and the storage infrastructure it manages. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the CVSS 9.8 rating and unauthenticated root RCE make this a top-priority patch.

Information disclosure and tampering in Dell RVTools collector versions prior to 4.8.1 stems from improper certificate validation (CWE-295), letting a remote unauthenticated attacker in a machine-in-the-middle position intercept or alter data exchanged between the collector and its target. Rated CVSS 9.1 (C:H/I:H) but with A:N, the flaw affects the popular VMware vSphere inventory-reporting utility. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis; EPSS is low at 0.14% and SSVC lists exploitation as none.

Privilege escalation in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM Mac) versions prior to 2.3.0.1005 allows a low-privileged local attacker to invoke critical functions that lack authentication controls, gaining elevated system privileges. The root cause is CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function), a well-understood vulnerability class in macOS privileged helper architectures. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis; Dell has released a patched version per advisory DSA-2026-319.

Elevation of privileges and arbitrary code execution in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM) for macOS exposes endpoints running versions prior to 2.3.0.1005 to local privilege escalation attacks. An improper access control flaw (CWE-284) allows a low-privileged local account to bypass access controls enforced by DDPM, ultimately achieving arbitrary code execution with elevated rights. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and no KEV listing exists, but the low attack complexity and complete impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability make this a meaningful risk in environments where untrusted or shared local users exist on managed macOS endpoints.

Local privilege escalation in Dell Monitor Driver exploits a symlink (link-following) flaw to allow a low-privileged local attacker to elevate to higher system privileges, achieving full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the host. The vendor has released a patch via Dell Security Advisory DSA-2026-295, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis. EPSS rates exploitation probability at 0.11% (2nd percentile), and SSVC classifies exploitation as none and automatable as no - consistent with the local-only attack vector and the absence of CISA KEV listing.

Remote code execution in Dell PowerProtect Data Manager versions prior to 20.2.0.0 stems from improper input validation in the product's REST API, allowing a high-privileged, remotely authenticated attacker to escalate into arbitrary code execution on the data-protection appliance. Dell (the reporting vendor) rates it CVSS 7.2 (High) with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact but requiring high privileges (PR:H). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, the EPSS probability is low (0.61%, 46th percentile), and CISA SSVC marks exploitation status as none.

Elevation of privilege in Dell PowerProtect Data Manager (all versions prior to 20.2.0.0) stems from the Identity and Access Management (IAM) subsystem generating incorrect security tokens, letting an already-authenticated low-privileged user obtain rights beyond those granted to their account. The flaw is remotely reachable over the network and requires no user interaction, and while the CVSS base score is 8.8 (High), there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV. Because the impact is full compromise of confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data-protection platform, it should be prioritized in any environment running affected versions.

Elevation of privilege in Dell PowerProtect Data Manager versions prior to 20.2.0.0 allows an already high-privileged, remotely authenticated attacker to abuse improper input validation in the REST API to gain further control over the appliance. Exploitation yields total technical impact (full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise) but requires existing high privileges, keeping practical risk moderate. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not listed in CISA KEV.

Elevation of privilege in Dell PowerProtect Data Manager before 20.2.0.0 lets an already high-privileged, remote authenticated attacker abuse an improperly validated REST API input to gain further control over the backup and recovery appliance. Per the CVSS vector the attacker starts with high privileges (PR:H), yet the flaw yields total confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the affected system. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and CISA's SSVC framework rates exploitation as 'none' with a low EPSS probability of 0.50%.

Elevation of privilege in Dell PowerProtect Data Manager (versions prior to 20.2.0.0) allows a remote, high-privileged attacker to abuse improper input validation and gain elevated privileges, with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact per the CVSS vector. The flaw was reported by Dell, which has published advisory DSA-2026-287 and a fixed release. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV, so risk is currently limited by the requirement for pre-existing high privileges.

Dell PowerProtect Data Manager's REST API exposes sensitive information to high-privileged local users in all versions prior to 20.2.0.0. An administrator-level attacker with local access can query the REST API and retrieve sensitive data that should be restricted even at the admin tier - with the CVSS Scope:Changed indicator suggesting the exposed information may include credentials or secrets belonging to systems external to the PPDM instance itself. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; Dell has released version 20.2.0.0 to address this and multiple other vulnerabilities per advisory DSA-2026-287.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvme-pci: fix use-after-free in nvme_free_host_mem() nvme_free_host_mem() frees dev->hmb_sgt via dma_free_noncontiguous() but never clears the pointer afterward. This leads to a use-after-free if nvme_free_host_mem() is called twice in the same error path. This can happen during nvme_probe() when nvme_setup_host_mem() succeeds in allocating the HMB (setting dev->hmb_sgt) but nvme_set_host_mem() fails with an I/O error: nvme_setup_host_mem() nvme_alloc_host_mem_single() -> sets dev->hmb_sgt nvme_set_host_mem() -> fails with -EIO nvme_free_host_mem() -> frees hmb_sgt, but does NOT NULL it return error nvme_probe() error path: nvme_free_host_mem() -> dev->hmb_sgt is stale, use-after-free The second call dereferences the freed sgt, causing a NULL pointer dereference in iommu_dma_free_noncontiguous() when it accesses sgt->sgl->dma_address (the backing memory has been freed and zeroed). This is reproducible on Thunderbolt-attached NVMe devices (e.g., OWC Envoy Express behind a Dell WD22TB4 dock) where the device intermittently returns I/O errors during HMB setup due to PCIe link instability. BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010 RIP: 0010:iommu_dma_free_noncontiguous+0x22/0x80 Call Trace: <TASK> dma_free_noncontiguous+0x3b/0x130 nvme_free_host_mem+0x30/0xf0 [nvme] nvme_probe.cold+0xcc/0x275 [nvme] local_pci_probe+0x43/0xa0 pci_device_probe+0xeea/0x290 really_probe+0xf9/0x3b0 __driver_probe_device+0x8b/0x170 driver_probe_device+0x24/0xd0 __driver_attach_async_helper+0x6b/0x110 async_run_entry_fn+0x37/0x170 process_one_work+0x1ac/0x3d0 worker_thread+0x1b8/0x360 kthread+0xf7/0x130 ret_from_fork+0x2d8/0x3a0 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 </TASK> Fix this by setting dev->hmb_sgt to NULL after freeing it, so the second call takes the multi-descriptor path which safely handles the already-cleaned-up state.

Unauthorized access in Dell ThinOS 10 (versions prior to 2605_10.2100) stems from an obsolete UI feature (CWE-448) that a low-privileged local attacker can abuse to bypass authentication controls. With valid low-level local access to the thin-client, an attacker can leverage the leftover interface path to reach functionality or data they should not have, yielding high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact per the CVSS 7.8 (High) rating. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; the flaw was reported by Dell and disclosed in advisory DSA-2026-300.

Protection mechanism failure in Dell ThinOS 10 (versions prior to 2605_10.2100) allows an unauthenticated attacker with physical device access to bypass encryption controls and gain unauthorized read and write access to data stored on the thin client. The flaw, classified as CWE-693, indicates the encryption or authentication protection subsystem can be circumvented without any credentials, consistent with the Authentication Bypass tag and CVSS PR:N rating. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, though the physical access constraint limits but does not eliminate risk in environments with unattended or theft-prone thin clients.

Local information disclosure in Dell PowerScale OneFS (9.5.0.0-9.10.1.7 and 9.11.0.0-9.13.0.2) arises from sensitive data being written to log files, allowing a low-privileged local user to read secrets they should not access. Dell reported the issue (advisory DSA-2026-261) with no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Exploitation requires existing local, authenticated access to the cluster, limiting reach to insiders or attackers who have already established a foothold.

Elevation of privileges in Dell PowerScale OneFS versions 9.5.0.0-9.10.1.7 and 9.11.0.0-9.13.0.2 allows a high-privileged local attacker to escalate beyond their authorized access level due to improper privilege management (CWE-269). While the CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.7 reflects the local access and high-privilege prerequisites that constrain exploitability, the full C:H/I:H/A:H impact triad signals complete system compromise upon successful exploitation - a serious outcome for enterprise NAS infrastructure that frequently stores sensitive organizational data. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.

Unauthorized file disclosure in Dell Unisphere for PowerMax 10.3.0.5 and prior is achievable by a remote low-privileged attacker via an XML External Entity (XXE) injection flaw (CWE-611). By submitting crafted XML containing external entity declarations to a vulnerable parsing endpoint, an authenticated attacker can cause the server to read and return sensitive local files or initiate server-side requests, resulting in High confidentiality impact. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; however, Dell has issued advisory DSA-2026-272 covering this and related vulnerabilities across the PowerMax product family.

Remote command execution in Dell Unisphere for PowerMax versions 10.3.0.5 and prior allows a low-privileged authenticated user to run arbitrary OS commands with root privileges by abusing unsafe deserialization of untrusted data (CWE-502). Because the CVSS vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:L, any account with minimal access on the management interface can escalate to full root control of the storage-management appliance. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not in CISA KEV, but the low attack complexity and full CIA impact make it a high-priority patch for storage administrators.

SQL injection in Dell PowerFlex Manager prior to version 5.1.0.1 allows a remote, low-privileged authenticated attacker to inject crafted SQL commands through the management interface, resulting in information disclosure and unauthorized access to data beyond the attacker's authorized scope. Rated CVSS 8.5 with a scope-changed vector, the flaw is reported by Dell (DSA-2026-066) and carries confidentiality impact; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.

SQL injection in Dell PowerFlex Manager before 5.1.0.1 lets a low-privileged, remotely authenticated user inject crafted SQL into a backend query, resulting in unauthorized reading of database contents (information exposure). The flaw is fixed in 5.1.0.1 per Dell advisory DSA-2026-066, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Because exploitation requires a valid low-privilege account, the practical risk is highest in multi-tenant or broadly-provisioned management deployments rather than internet-facing unauthenticated exposure.

Root-level OS command execution in Dell PowerFlex Manager (versions prior to 5.1.0.1) lets a remote, high-privileged attacker inject operating-system commands during OS Repository processing, resulting in full appliance compromise. Because PowerFlex Manager orchestrates storage and HCI infrastructure, code execution as root also enables lateral movement into managed nodes. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and Dell has released a fixed build (5.1.0.1) via advisory DSA-2026-066.

Path traversal in Dell Unisphere for PowerMax 10.3.0.5 and prior exposes arbitrary files on the underlying server to remote attackers holding low-privileged credentials. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) confirms high confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability consequence, consistent with a read-only directory traversal flaw. No public exploit code has been identified and this vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV at time of analysis, though the low attack complexity raises concern for rapid weaponization if credentials are compromised.

Improper authorization enforcement in Dell PowerProtect Data Domain (versions 7.7.1.0 through 8.6, plus LTS branches 8.6.1.0-8.6.1.10, 8.3.1.0-8.3.1.30, and 7.13.1.0-7.13.1.70) allows a low-privileged, remote authenticated attacker to reach resources or actions beyond their assigned role, resulting in unauthorized access. Rated CVSS 8.8 (High) with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact and low attack complexity. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, but the low barrier to exploitation for any existing account makes this a meaningful escalation risk on these backup appliances.
