"According to its self-reported version, the Dell System Update (DSU) installation on the remote host is prior to
2.3.0.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the DSA-2026-324 advisory.
- Dell System Update, versions prior to 2.3.0.0, contains an Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted
Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with remote access could potentially
exploit this vulnerability, leading to Filesystem access for attacker. This vulnerability is considered critical
because it can be leveraged by an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges.
(CVE-2026-86360)
- Dell System Update, versions prior to 2.3.0.0, contains an Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical
Resource vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this
vulnerability, leading to Elevation of privileges. (CVE-2026-86361)
- Dell System Update, versions prior to 2.3.0.0, contains an Improper Access Control vulnerability. A low
privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of
privileges. (CVE-2026-86362)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported
version number.");
