Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Dell Common Event Enabler versions 8.9.10.0 and prior

Description The issue is related to an insecure deserialization vulnerability in CAVATools. A local unauthenticated attacker could potentially exploit this, leading to arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged-in user. Exploitation requires a victim to open a malicious file.

Recommendations For versions 8.9.10.0 and prior, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue to prevent arbitrary code execution. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of CAVATools until a patch is available. Restrict access to malicious files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
