Sensitive-information disclosure via cleartext log storage
Published Jul 20, 2023 · Updated Oct 17, 2024
Cleartext storage in Dell Wyse Management Suite 4.0 and earlier allows local users with administrative privileges to read sensitive log data. The application writes sensitive information to log files without protecting the stored values, leaving their cleartext contents accessible on the host. Exploitation requires authenticated high-privilege local access to the Windows server; Dell reports confidentiality loss only, with no integrity or availability impact.
