CVE-2024-25960

Local privilege escalation

Published Mar 28, 2024 · Updated Aug 12, 2024

Cleartext transmission in Dell Technologies PowerScale OneFS 8.2.2 through 9.7.0.1 allows local users to escalate privileges. Dell has not published the affected component, the sensitive value transmitted, or the operation that exposes it in cleartext. Exploitation requires low-privileged local access with ISI_PRIV_LOGIN_SSH or ISI_PRIV_LOGIN_CONSOLE and user interaction, and it grants privilege escalation with confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
