CVE-2026-70425

Root command execution via undisclosed command injection

Published Sep 9, 2026 · Updated Sep 11, 2026

OS command injection in affected Dell PowerScale OneFS releases allows local users with admin privileges to gain root access. Dell has not published the affected command-processing locus or the input whose shell metacharacters are not neutralized. Exploitation requires local access and an administrator-privileged account; injected commands run as root and can read, change, or interrupt cluster data and services.
