CVE-2026-67261Network attack vector

Unauthenticated root command execution via IAPI injection

Published Aug 6, 2026 · Updated Aug 6, 2026

OS command injection in Dell Virtual Storage Integrator before 10.11.1.0 allows remote attackers to execute operating-system commands as root via IAPI. Dell identifies IAPI as the affected locus but has not disclosed the endpoint, parameter, or command-construction operation that mishandles untrusted input. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful exploitation grants control of the VSI appliance and its underlying operating system.
