AI-suggested
Until an official fix is released, restrict local access to trusted users only and monitor for any suspicious activity related to debug information exposure.
Description
Dell SCG 5.0 Appliance versions prior to 5.36.00.16 and Dell SCG 5.0 Application versions prior to 5.36.00.00, contains an Exposure of Sensitive System Information Due to Uncleared Debug Information vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to information exposure.
Impact
The vulnerability allows a low privileged attacker with local access to potentially obtain sensitive system information due to leftover debug data. This could aid in further attacks or reconnaissance but does not directly impact system integrity or availability.
Weaknesses
- CWE-1258Exposure of Sensitive System Information Due to Uncleared Debug Information (opens in a new tab)
Base weakness
The hardware does not fully clear security-sensitive values, such as keys and intermediate values in cryptographic operations, when debug mode is entered.
