Dell Command Configure versions prior to 4.2.1 contain an uncontrolled search path vulnerability. A locally authenticated malicious user could exploit this vulnerability by creating a symlink to a target file, allowing the attacker to overwrite or corrupt a specified file on the system.
The product uses a fixed or controlled search path to find resources, but one or more locations in that path can be under the control of unintended actors.
The product attempts to access a file based on the filename, but it does not properly prevent that filename from identifying a link or shortcut that resolves to an unintended resource.
