This issue may potentially enable privilege escalation and the execution of arbitrary code, in the Windows system context, and confined to that specific local PC.

Dell SupportAssist for Business PCs version 3.4.0 contains a local Authentication Bypass vulnerability that allows locally authenticated non-admin users to gain temporary privilege within the SupportAssist User Interface on their respective PC. The Run as Admin temporary privilege feature enables IT/System Administrators to perform driver scans and Dell-recommended driver installations without requiring them to log out of the local non-admin user session. However, the granted privilege is limited solely to the SupportAssist User Interface and automatically expires after 15 minutes.

Dell SupportAssist for Home PCs Installer Executable file version prior to 3.13.2.19 used for initial installation has a high vulnerability that can result in local privilege escalation (LPE). This vulnerability only affects first-time installations done prior to 8th March 2023

SupportAssist for Home PCs (versions 3.11.4 and prior) contain an insufficient session expiration Vulnerability. An authenticated non-admin user can be able to obtain the refresh token and that leads to reuse the access token and fetch sensitive information.

Dell SupportAssist contains a rate limit bypass issues in screenmeet API third party component. An unauthenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability and impersonate a legitimate dell customer to a dell support technician.

Dell SupportAssist for Home PCs (version 3.11.4 and prior) and  SupportAssist for Business PCs (version 3.2.0 and prior) contain information disclosure vulnerability. A local malicious user with low privileges could exploit this vulnerability to view and modify sensitive information in the database of the affected application.

Dell SupportAssist for Home PCs (version 3.11.4 and prior) and SupportAssist for Business PCs (version 3.2.0 and prior) contain a privilege escalation vulnerability. A local authenticated malicious user could potentially exploit this vulnerability to elevate privileges and gain total control of the system.

Dell SupportAssist for Home PCs (version 3.11.4 and prior) and SupportAssist for Business PCs (version 3.2.0 and prior) contain cryptographic weakness vulnerability. An authenticated non-admin user could potentially exploit the issue and obtain sensitive information.

SupportAssist for Home PCs (version 3.11.4 and prior) and  SupportAssist for Business PCs (version 3.2.0 and prior) contain cryptographic weakness vulnerability. An authenticated non-admin user could potentially exploit the issue and obtain sensitive information.

Dell SupportAssist Client Consumer (version 3.11.1 and prior), SupportAssist Client Commercial (version 3.2 and prior), Dell Command | Update, Dell Update, and Alienware Update versions before 4.5 contain a Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability in the Advanced Driver Restore component. A local malicious user may potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to privilege escalation.

Dell SupportAssist for Home PCs (version 3.11.2 and prior) contain Overly Permissive Cross-domain Whitelist vulnerability. An authenticated non-admin user could potentially exploit the issue and obtain sensitive information.

Dell SupportAssist Client Consumer versions (3.10.4 and versions prior) and Dell SupportAssist Client Commercial versions (3.1.1 and versions prior) contain an arbitrary file deletion vulnerability. Authenticated non-admin user could exploit the issue and delete arbitrary files on the system.

Dell Support Assist OS Recovery versions before 5.5.2 contain an Authentication Bypass vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with physical access to the system may exploit this vulnerability by bypassing OS Recovery authentication in order to run arbitrary code on the system as Administrator.

SupportAssist Client version 3.8 and 3.9 contains an Untrusted search path vulnerability that allows attackers to load an arbitrary .dll file via .dll planting/hijacking, only by a separate administrative action that is not a default part of the SOSInstallerTool.exe installation for executing arbitrary dll's,

Dell SupportAssist for Business PCs versions 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.1, 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3 and Dell SupportAssist for Home PCs version 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.1, 2.1.1, 2.1.2, 2.1.3, 2.2, 2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.2.3, 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.0.2, 3.1, 3.2, 3.2.1, 3.2.2, 3.3, 3.3.1, 3.3.2, 3.3.3, 3.4 contain an uncontrolled search path vulnerability. A locally authenticated low privileged user could exploit this vulnerability to cause the loading of arbitrary DLLs by the SupportAssist binaries, resulting in the privileged execution of arbitrary code.

PC-Doctor Toolbox before 7.3 has an Uncontrolled Search Path Element.

Dell SupportAssist for Business PCs version 2.0 and Dell SupportAssist for Home PCs version 2.2, 2.2.1, 2.2.2, 2.2.3, 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.0.2, 3.1, 3.2, and 3.2.1 contain an Improper Privilege Management Vulnerability. A malicious local user can exploit this vulnerability by inheriting a system thread using a leaked thread handle to gain system privileges on the affected machine.

Dell SupportAssist Client versions prior to 3.2.0.90 contain a remote code execution vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker, sharing the network access layer with the vulnerable system, can compromise the vulnerable system by tricking a victim user into downloading and executing arbitrary executables via SupportAssist client from attacker hosted sites.

Dell SupportAssist Client versions prior to 3.2.0.90 contain an improper origin validation vulnerability. An unauthenticated remote attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability to attempt CSRF attacks on users of the impacted systems.

Dell EMC SupportAssist Enterprise version 1.1 creates a local Windows user account named "OMEAdapterUser" with a default password as part of the installation process. This unnecessary user account also remains even after an upgrade from v1.1 to v1.2. Access to the management console can be achieved by someone with knowledge of the default password. If SupportAssist Enterprise is installed on a server running OpenManage Essentials (OME), the OmeAdapterUser user account is added as a member of the OmeAdministrators group for the OME. An unauthorized person with knowledge of the default password and access to the OME web console could potentially use this account to gain access to the affected installation of OME with OmeAdministrators privileges. This is fixed in version 1.2.1.
