Technical details
The vulnerability is a missing authentication mechanism for critical functions in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager Mac (versions before 2.3.0.1005). An attacker with low-level local access and no user interaction required can invoke privileged operations without proper authorization, leading to privilege escalation. The attack vector is local (AV:L) with low complexity (AC:L) and requires low privileges (PR:L). Successful exploitation grants the attacker high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact (C:H/I:H/A:H). A patch is available in version 2.3.0.1005 and later.
