TITLE

Dell iDRAC7 and iDRAC8 In device firmware Bash Vulnerabilities that gain shell access

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2016-006039

DESCRIPTION

Dell iDRAC7 and iDRAC8 devices with firmware before 2.40.40.40 allow authenticated users to gain Bash shell access through a string injection. Supplementary information : CWE Vulnerability type by CWE-74: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component ( injection ) Has been identified. Dell iDRAC7 and iDRAC8 devices are prone to a code-injection vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to inject arbitrary code in the context of the affected device. This may facilitate a compromise of the application and the underlying system; other attacks are also possible. Dell iDRAC7 and iDRAC8 devices running firmware versions prior to 2.40.40.4 are vulnerable. Dell Integrated Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) 7 and 8 are remote access control cards of Dell (Dell). Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to gain Bash shell privileges
