CVE-2024-22459Network attack vector

Namespace-wide unauthorized bucket data access

Published Feb 28, 2024 · Updated Aug 15, 2024

Improper access control in affected Dell ECS releases allows remote authenticated users to access every bucket within a namespace. Dell has not published the faulty component or the authorization operation that mishandles access to bucket data. A high-privileged account and user interaction are required, and the resulting unauthorized access extends across the namespace.
