Summary
Dell PowerProtect Data Domain in multiple versions contains an improper link resolution before file access vulnerability. A high privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to information exposure.
Risk Assessment
The risk involves potential leakage of sensitive data by an attacker who already has high privileges in the system, which could lead to information security breach.
Recommendation
It is recommended to immediately apply security patches provided by Dell for the affected versions and restrict local access to the system only to trusted users.
