Plain English Summary
AI-powered analysis for quick understanding
This vulnerability allows a highly privileged attacker with local access to bypass security protections on Dell PowerScale OneFS, potentially compromising the system's integrity. To exploit this issue, the attacker must already have elevated access to the system, making it a concern primarily for environments where local access is not well controlled.
Technical Description
Dell PowerScale OneFS, versions 9.10.0.0 through 9.10.1.5 and versions 9.11.0.0 through 9.12.0.1, contains an external control of system or configuration setting vulnerability. A high privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to protection mechanism bypass.
