CVE-2022-22564Network attack vector

Sensitive-data disclosure via broken cryptographic algorithms

Published Feb 14, 2023 · Updated Mar 20, 2025

Broken cryptography in Dell Technologies Unity before 5.2.0.0.5.173 allows remote attackers to read sensitive data through MitM attacks. Dell identifies only the use of broken cryptographic algorithms and does not disclose the affected protocol, component, or cryptographic operation. Exploitation requires a network position permitting traffic interception; the reported consequence is confidentiality loss without integrity or availability impact.
