Authenticated code execution via out-of-bounds write
Published Jun 26, 2024 · Updated Oct 30, 2024
Out-of-bounds write in Dell Technologies PowerProtect Data Domain allows remote authenticated users to execute code through a network interface. Dell discloses only that a memory write crosses its intended bounds; it does not identify the affected component, request field, or failed bounds check. Exploitation requires low-privileged credentials and executes code with the vulnerable application's privileges; an application crash was also reported.
