CVE-2025-22395: Dell Update Package Framework, versions prior to 22.01.02, contain(s) a Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability.

HighCVSS 7.8 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 31/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.19% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Dell Dell Update Package (DUP) Framework 22.01.02.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Dell Dell Update Package (DUP) Framework 22.01.02 or later.
