Authenticated log forgery via unneutralized output
Published Jan 24, 2024 · Updated Aug 23, 2024
Log neutralization failure in Dell Technologies Unity before 5.3.0.0.5.120 allows remote authenticated users to forge audit records. Dell has not disclosed the affected logging component or how attacker-controlled message content reaches the log sink. Low-privileged network access is required; exploitation can create false alarms, suppress records during malicious activity, or falsely implicate another user.
