CVE-2018-1249: iDRAC9 versions prior to 3.21.21.21 did not enforce the use of TLS/SSL for a connection to iDRAC web server for certain URLs

Dell EMC iDRAC9 versions prior to 3.21.21.21 did not enforce the use of TLS/SSL for a connection to iDRAC web server for certain URLs. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this vulnerability to strip the SSL/TLS protection from a connection between a client and a server.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2018-1249 affects Dell EMC iDRAC9 management interfaces before version 3.21.21.21. Some web URLs did not force TLS/SSL, so an attacker positioned between an administrator and iDRAC could downgrade protection and expose sensitive management traffic. Exposure is limited to Dell EMC iDRAC9 deployments running firmware before 3.21.21.21, especially where the iDRAC web server is reachable across untrusted or shared networks. Treat as a moderate infrastructure-management risk. Prioritize systems reachable outside tightly controlled management networks because iDRAC compromise can expose sensitive server administration traffic. Mitigation focus: Inventory Dell EMC iDRAC9 devices and record firmware versions.; Update iDRAC9 firmware below 3.21.21.21 using Dell guidance.; Restrict iDRAC web access to trusted management networks..
