"CyberMDX Research Team Discovers Critical Vulnerabilities in Dell Wyse Thin Client Devices"
Researchers at the healthcare cybersecurity provider CyberMDX discovered critical vulnerabilities in Dell Wyse Thin Client devices. The exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow attackers to remotely run malicious code and access arbitrary files on affected devices. The first vulnerability enables users to access the configuration server and read configurations belonging to other clients, which could lead to the exposure of sensitive data such as passwords. The second vulnerability allows users to access the server and make changes to configurations belonging to other thin clients. Elad Luz, the Head of Research at CyberMDX has pointed out the lack of consideration for security in these devices' design. This article continues to discuss CyberMDX's discovery of the vulnerabilities using its AI/ML anomaly detection feature, the use of thin client devices, the root of the vulnerabilities, and other efforts by CyberMDX to bolster the security of healthcare organizations against cyberattacks.
