Authenticated privilege escalation via missing authorization
Published Feb 24, 2026 · Updated Feb 24, 2026
Missing authorization in Dell Wyse Management Suite before 5.5 allows remote authenticated users with low privileges to elevate privileges. Dell has not disclosed the affected endpoint, authorization check, or privileged operation that accepts the unauthorized request. The gate is network access plus an existing low-privileged account; success grants privileges beyond that account's assigned role.
