Physical information disclosure via uncleared debug data
Published Sep 9, 2026 · Updated Sep 9, 2026
Sensitive-information exposure in Dell Secure Connect Gateway 5.0 allows physically proximate attackers to read uncleared debug data. Affected appliance builds before 5.36.00.16 and application builds before 5.36.00.00 retain sensitive values when debug mode is entered; Dell has not identified the affected component or values. Physical access is required, and the reported consequence is limited to information exposure without integrity or availability impact.

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.
