The SMB service in EMC VNXe (VNXe3200 Operating Environment prior to 3.1.5.8711957 and VNXe3100/3150/3300 Operating Environment prior to 2.4.4.22638), VNX1 File OE before 7.1.80.3, VNX2 File OE before 8.1.9.155, and Celerra (all supported versions) does not prevent duplicate NTLM challenge-response nonces, which makes it easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, or read or write to files, via a series of authentication requests, a related issue to CVE-2010-0231.
This vulnerability carries a CRITICAL severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 9.8, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction and does not require pre-existing privileges . The vulnerability impacts confidentiality (data exposure), integrity (unauthorized modifications), and availability (service disruption) for affected systems. Impacting 13 products from emc, from emc, from emc and 10 others, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
First disclosed in 2016, this vulnerability was reported during a period defined by widespread IoT adoption challenges, mobile security concerns, and the emergence of advanced persistent threat (APT) techniques. Contemporary mitigation strategies focused on secure development practices and third-party component vetting.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For emc's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
