Dell EMC Avamar Server versions 7.4.1, 7.5.0, 7.5.1, 18.2 and 19.1 and Dell EMC Integrated Data Protection Appliance (IDPA) versions 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 contain an Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource vulnerability. A remote authenticated malicious user potentially could exploit this vulnerability to view or modify sensitive backup data. This could be used to make backups corrupt or potentially to trick a user into restoring a backup with malicious files in place.
This vulnerability carries a HIGH severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 8.1, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction requiring only low-level privileges . The vulnerability impacts confidentiality (data exposure), integrity (unauthorized modifications), for affected systems. Impacting 2 products from dell, from dell organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
First disclosed in 2019, 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 dell'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.
