Dell BIOS contains an Improper Input Validation vulnerability in an externally developed component. A high privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to code execution.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
