CVE-2026-67273: Dell Container Storage Modules, versions prior to 1.18.0, contain(s) an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements Used in a Template Engin
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 38/100)
- 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: 0.28% (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 Container Storage Modules 1.18.0 or later.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Dell Container Storage Modules 1.18.0 or later or later.
