Arbitrary code execution via unchecked firmware response parameters
Published Jun 13, 2025 · Updated Feb 26, 2026
Deserialization in Dell ControlVault3 before 5.15.10.14 and ControlVault3 Plus before 6.2.26.36 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code. cvhDecapsulateCmd trusts firmware-supplied parameter types, lengths, and counts instead of the expected parameter list, enabling out-of-bounds writes. Exploitation requires compromised BCM5820X firmware or a malicious USB device masquerading as ControlVault, and code runs in the calling process.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
