It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-21526 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell Powerscale Onefs. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-21526/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-21526/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-21526","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-21526/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-21526","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j4m7-8245-9345"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Dell PowerScale OneFS","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Privilege escalation in Dell PowerScale OneFS allows compadmin to execute arbitrary commands as root in SmartLock compliance mode.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"powerscale_onefs","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"Dell PowerScale OneFS 8.1.0 - 9.1.0 contains a privilege escalation in SmartLock compliance mode that may allow compadmin to execute arbitrary commands as root.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Command injection in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2021-21526","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"dell:powerscale_onefs","products":["dell:powerscale_onefs"],"type":"command_injection","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2021-21527"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Deserialization in Dell EMC Storage Monitoring and Reporting","id":"CVE-2021-21524"},"products":["PowerScale OneFS"],"published":"2021-04-20","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2024-53298","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2025-27690","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Information disclosure in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2022-31229","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-28"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Auth bypass in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2026-22278","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-01-22"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2024-29170","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-04"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Weak cryptography in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2022-31230","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-28"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Weak cryptography in PowerScale OneFS","id":"CVE-2022-29098","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-17","vendors":["Dell"]},"summary":"Privilege escalation in Dell PowerScale OneFS allows compadmin to execute arbitrary commands as root in SmartLock compliance mode.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-21526/"}
