Authenticated information disclosure via exceptional-condition mishandling
Published Aug 16, 2021 · Updated Sep 17, 2024
Improper exceptional-condition handling in Dell PowerScale OneFS 8.2.x through 9.2.x allows remote authenticated users to disclose information. Dell has not published the affected component, triggering input, or incorrect operation beyond stating that OneFS mishandles an exceptional condition. Exploitation requires low-privileged remote access and high-complexity circumstances, and the reported consequence is limited to information disclosure.
