Impact

Dell Unisphere for PowerMax vApp, version 9.2.4.x, contains an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command (Command Injection) flaw. A high‑privileged attacker who can remotely access the virtual appliance can inject and execute arbitrary commands, potentially compromising the host system and gaining full control. The weakness corresponds to CWE‑77 and constitutes a classic command‑injection vulnerability.

Affected Systems
