Dell iDRAC (u-boot): Improper error handling grants access to the u-boot shell — pre-BMC-OS control, i.e

CVE-2018-15776Firmware, BMC & network fabriccurated

Impact

Improper error handling grants access to the u-boot shell — pre-BMC-OS control, i.e. below even the BMC firmware image

Who can reach it

Local / serial-adjacent

What to do

Firmware update; a u-boot foothold survives BMC firmware reflash, so affected nodes need physical verification rather than a remote fix
