Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability exists in Dell PowerScale OneFS versions prior to 9.10.1.6 and versions 9.11.0.0 through 9.12.0.1. It is caused by incorrect privilege assignment, which means that a user with low privileges who has local access to the system could exploit this flaw to gain elevated privileges.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
