Unauthenticated information disclosure via improper authentication
Published Jun 17, 2026 · Updated Jun 17, 2026
Improper authentication in Dell PowerFlex Manager before 5.1.0.1 allows adjacent remote attackers to access sensitive information. Dell has not disclosed the affected request, endpoint, or authentication check, so the precise operation on untrusted input remains unknown. Exploitation requires no credentials or user interaction but does require adjacent-network access; Dell's CVSS vector limits the scored impact to confidentiality despite broader advisory wording.

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.
- Affected versionversion=0 <4.5.5.2 or later
- Affected versionversion=0 <5.1.0.1 or later
