CVE-2024-46916
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
Diebold Nixdorf Vynamic Security Suite through 4.3.0 SR06 contains functionality that allows the removal of critical system files before the filesystem is properly mounted (e.g., leveraging a delete call in /etc/rc.d/init.d/mountfs to remove the /etc/fstab file). This can allow code execution and, in some versions, enable recovery of TPM Disk Encryption keys and decryption of the Windows system partition.

Esto puede permitir la ejecución de código y, en algunas versiones, habilitar la recuperación de claves de cifrado de disco TPM y el descifrado de la partición del sistema de Windows."
