CVE-2024-39585Network attack vector

Information disclosure via hard-coded password

Published Sep 6, 2024 · Updated Sep 17, 2024

Hard-coded password use in Dell SmartFabric OS10 10.5.5.4 through 10.5.5.10 and 10.5.6.x allows remote authenticated users to disclose information. Dell identifies a hard-coded password as the faulty operation but has not disclosed the credential's component, purpose, or request flow. Exploitation requires low-privileged remote access and user interaction; only SFS mode is affected on OS10 platforms, while MX deployments are affected in both full-switch and SFS modes.
