Unauthenticated privileged code execution via unsafe deserialization
Published Apr 12, 2021 · Updated Sep 16, 2024
Untrusted deserialization in Dell EMC Storage Monitoring and Reporting before 4.5.0.1 allows remote attackers to execute privileged code. Dell identifies the operation only as untrusted deserialization and has not published the affected endpoint, class, method, serialization format, or validation failure. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful exploitation compromises the application host.
