Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who is realistically exposed to exploitation?

Instances of Dell OpenManage Enterprise running a version earlier than 4.7.0 are affected. Exploitation requires an attacker to already have high privileges and remote access to the affected system.

2

Does this vulnerability allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to gain access?

No. The reported attack requirements specify high privileges, so an unauthenticated or low-privileged attacker is not described as able to exploit it directly.

3

What is the remediation?

Update Dell OpenManage Enterprise to version 4.7.0 or later. The affected versions are those prior to 4.7.0.
