The Dell Isilon OneFS versions 8.2.2 and earlier and Dell EMC PowerScale OneFS version 9.0.0 default configuration for Network File System (NFS) allows access to an 'admin' home directory. An attacker may leverage a spoofed Unique Identifier (UID) over NFS to rewrite sensitive files to gain administrative access to the system.

Dell EMC Isilon OneFS versions 8.2.2 and earlier and Dell EMC PowerScale version 9.0.0 contain a file permissions vulnerability. An attacker, with network or local file access, could take advantage of insufficiently applied file permissions or gain unauthorized access to files.

Dell EMC Isilon versions 8.2.2 and earlier contain a remotesupport vulnerability. The pre-configured support account, remotesupport, is bundled in the Dell EMC Isilon OneFS installation. This account is used for diagnostics and other support functions. Although the default password is different for every cluster, it is predictable.

Dell EMC Isilon OneFS version 8.2.2 and Dell EMC PowerScale OneFS version 9.0.0 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in the Likewise component. A remote unauthenticated malicious attacker may potentially exploit this vulnerability to cause a process restart.

The Dell Isilon OneFS versions 8.2.2 and earlier SSHD process improperly allows Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and stream forwarding. This provides the remotesupport user and users with restricted shells more access than is intended.
