Details
A vulnerability, which was classified as very critical, has been found in Dell iDRAC6. This issue affects an unknown code of the component Intelligent Platform Management Interface. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a improper authentication vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-287. When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
The Dell iDRAC6 with firmware 1.x before 1.92 and 2.x and 3.x before 3.42, and iDRAC7 with firmware before 1.23.23, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary IPMI commands by using cipher suite 0 (aka cipher zero) and an arbitrary password. NOTE: the vendor disputes the significance of this issue, stating "DRAC s are intended to be on a separate management network; they are not designed nor intended to be placed on or connected to the Internet."
