Impact
The vulnerability is a server-side request forgery that can be triggered by an unauthenticated attacker who has remote access. The flaw enables the attacker to instruct the PowerProtect appliance to make arbitrary internal or external HTTP requests, potentially exposing sensitive data or internal network resources. The weakness is classified as CWE-918.
Affected Systems
This issue affects Dell PowerProtect Data Domain appliances that are running any of the following release ranges: Feature Release 7.7.1.0 through 8.7, LTS2024 7.13.1.0 through 7.13.1.80, LTS2025 8.3.1.0 through 8.3.1.40, and LTS2026 8.6.1.0 through 8.6.1.20.
Risk and Exploitability
With a CVSS score of 5.8, the vulnerability carries a moderate risk level. The EPSS score is not available and the flaw is currently not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, indicating that no widespread exploitation has been reported to date. Nonetheless, the attack vector is remote and unauthenticated, which limits the attack surface but still permits attackers to force the appliance to transmit requests to arbitrary endpoints, potentially leading to data leakage or further network compromise.
