The Dell BIOS on the remote device is missing a security patch and is, therefore, affected by a improper input validation vulnerability. A malicious user with physical access to the system may potentially exploit this vulnerability in order to corrupt memory on the system.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
