## Overview

Dell PowerProtect Data Domain, versions 7.7.1.0 through 8.6.0.0 and version 8.7.0.0, LTS2025 release versions 8.3.1.0 through 8.3.1.20, LTS2024 release versions 7.13.1.0 through 7.13.1.60 contain an improper neutralization
 of argument delimiters in a command ('argument injection') vulnerability. A high privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to arbitrary command execution with root privileges.

## Affected

- `powerprotect_dp_series_appliance < 2.7.9`
- `data_domain_operating_system >= 7.7.1.0, < 7.13.1.70`
- `data_domain_operating_system >= 7.14.0.0, < 8.3.1.30`
- `data_domain_operating_system >= 8.4.0.0, < 8.6.1.10`
- `data_domain_operating_system = 8.7.0.0`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `powerprotect_dp_series_appliance 2.7.9`
- `data_domain_operating_system 8.6.1.10`
