Dell Client Platform BIOS contains a Weak Authentication vulnerability. A high privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of Privileges.
Weakness
The product uses an authentication mechanism to restrict access to specific users or identities, but the mechanism does not sufficiently prove that the claimed identity is correct.
Affected Software
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alienware_m15_r6_firmware | Dell | * | 1.34.0 (excluding) |
Extended Description
Attackers may be able to bypass weak authentication faster and/or with less effort than expected.
