It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-36611 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell Encryption. 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-2025-36611/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-36611/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-36611","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-36611/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-36611","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-44r2-3246-r77p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Dell Security Management Server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit improper link resolution to escalate privileges in Dell Encryption and Security Management Server.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"encryption","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"security_management_server","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"Dell Encryption and Dell Security Management Server, versions prior to 11.11.0, contain an Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') Vulnerability.
