CVE-2026-27101

Status: AnalyzedHigh (7.2)—

Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) 5.0 Appliance and Application version(s) 5.28.00.xx to 5.32.00.xx, contain(s) an Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability. A high privileged attacker within the management network could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to remote execution.

CVSS

Version: 3.1
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Base score: 7.2

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.61%
Percentile among all scored CVEs: 47
Score date: 10/5/2026

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

🎯 ATT&CK techniques
