An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-25971 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell PowerProtect Data Manager. 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-2024-25971/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-25971/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-25971","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-25971/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-25971","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jpx5-qv8q-fwxp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Dell PowerProtect Data Manager","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A remote high-privileged attacker can exploit an XML External Entity vulnerability in Dell PowerProtect Data Manager to disclose information or cause denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xxe"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"powerprotect_data_manager","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-611","name":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference"}],"description":"Dell PowerProtect Data Manager, version 19.15, contains an XML External Entity Injection vulnerability.
