Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-17 18:35 – Updated: 2026-06-17 18:35Dell AIOps Collector versions prior to 1.18.3 contain a "Use of Default Credentials" vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with console access could potentially exploit this vulnerability to gain Filesystem access. This vulnerability only affects fresh installations of Collector versions earlier than 1.18.3. Systems that have been upgraded (either manually or automatically) to version 1.18.3 or later are not impacted, even if they were originally installed on an earlier version.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-12 00:31 – Updated: 2026-10-02 21:31An example environment-configuration file for a bundled inventory-management component ships with a fixed, publicly-known administrative password. A deployment that copies this example file into active configuration without running the setup routine that regenerates credentials will expose that component's administrative interface to anyone aware of the default value.
