Full system compromise via unprotected credential transport
Published Sep 2, 2022 · Updated Sep 16, 2024
Insufficiently protected credentials in Dell PowerScale OneFS affected releases allow remote attackers to compromise systems through network transport. The advisory identifies credentials sent without adequate transport protection but does not disclose the specific protocol, endpoint, or code path involved. Exploitation requires a network attacker and can expose credentials, enabling full system compromise; the vendor characterizes exploit complexity as high.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=unspecified <8.2.x, 9.0.0.x, 9.1.0.x, 9.2.0.x, 9.2.1.x, 9.3.0.x. 9.4.0.x, 9.5.0.x
