CRITICAL 9.4 ALL-YEARSDell 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 Missing Authorization vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to remote execution. This vulnerability is considered critical because it allows an attacker to execute commands remotely on a target system by sending a specially crafted request to the application, bypassing intended restrictions on code execution.Dell recommends customers to upgrade at the earliest opportunity.
Severe if exploited (CVSS 9.4), but no confirmed exploitation. Patch on a normal cadence.
