CVSS SCORE	6.8, AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:C
AFFECTED VENDORS	Dell EMC
AFFECTED PRODUCTS	VNX Monitoring and Reporting
VULNERABILITY DETAILS	This vulnerability allows remote attackers to create a denial of service on vulnerable installations of Dell EMC VNX Monitoring and Reporting. Although authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability, the existing authentication mechanism can be bypassed.
