Local command execution via undisclosed Hyper-V injection
Published Sep 10, 2025 · Updated Sep 10, 2025
OS command injection in Dell PowerProtect Data Manager 19.19 and 19.20 Hyper-V allows local users to execute commands. Dell identifies the Hyper-V component but has not disclosed the vulnerable function, command construction, or attacker-controlled input. A low-privileged local account is required; the advisory reports command execution but does not state the resulting process identity or privilege level.
