Filesystem access via default rancher credentials
Published Jun 17, 2026 · Updated Jun 17, 2026
Use of default credentials in Dell AIOps Collector before 1.18.3 allows local users with console access to gain filesystem access. Fresh installations retain a password for the default rancher account, allowing that account to be used from the vSphere console to access the appliance filesystem. The condition affects only fresh installations made before 1.18.3 that have never undergone a manual or automatic upgrade; any prior upgrade removes the exposure.
