Code execution via undisclosed out-of-bounds read
Published Aug 1, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024
Out-of-bounds read in Dell iDRAC Service Module 5.3.0.0 and earlier allows privileged local users to execute code and interrupt service. Dell identifies the defect only as an out-of-bounds read in proprietary code and has not disclosed the affected component, input, or unchecked read operation. Exploitation requires high local privileges and user interaction; successful exploitation permits arbitrary code execution with integrity loss or a service interruption.
