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-2023-25537 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell PowerEdge Platform. 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-2023-25537/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25537/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-25537","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25537/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-25537","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f88f-9mmf-7xm6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Dell server BIOS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit an out-of-bounds write in Dell BIOS to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges via SMRAM exposure.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"dss_8440_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"emc_storage_nx3240_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"emc_storage_nx3340_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"emc_xc_core_6420_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"emc_xc_core_xc640_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"emc_xc_core_xc740xd2_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"emc_xc_core_xc740xd_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"emc_xc_core_xc940_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"emc_xc_core_xcxr2_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_c4140_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_c6420_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_fc640_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_m640_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_mx740c_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_mx840c_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r440_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r540_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r640_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r740_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r740xd2_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r740xd_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r840_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r940_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_r940xa_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_t440_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_t640_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_xe2420_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_xe7420_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_xe7440_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"poweredge_xr2_firmware","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"Dell PowerEdge 14G server BIOS versions prior to 2.18.1 and Dell Precision BIOS versions prior to 2.18.2, contain an Out of Bounds write vulnerability.
