MediumCVSS 6.5 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)

  • 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: 0.45% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet 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 OpenManage Server Administrator Managed Node (Patch) for Windows 11.1.0.2; Dell Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Managed Node for RHEL 8.10 11.1.0.2; Dell Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Managed Node for RHEL 9.4 11.1.0.2.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Dell Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Managed Node (Patch) for Windows 11.1.0.2; Dell Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Managed Node for RHEL 8.10 11.1.0.2; Dell Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Managed Node for RHEL 9.4 11.1.0.2 or later.
