CVE-2025-30483
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedDell ECS versions prior to 3.8.1.5/ ObjectScale version 4.0.0.0 contains an Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Information disclosure.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceDell ECS and ObjectScale contain a vulnerability where sensitive information is being written to log files. A low-privileged local attacker with access to these log files could potentially obtain sensitive information such as credentials, tokens, or other confidential data that should not be exposed in logs.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify installed Dell productDetermine whether Dell Elastic Cloud Storage or Dell ObjectScale is deployed in your environment. Check installed packages, services, or documentation for the product name.Affected if The product is Dell ECS or Dell ObjectScale and the version falls below the fixed releases.
-
Determine ECS versionRun the ECS version command or check the installed ECS package version. Common methods include: 'ecs-version' command, checking the RPM/DEB package, or querying the ECS management interface for version information.Affected if The installed version is below 3.8.1.5.
-
Determine ObjectScale versionRun the ObjectScale version command or check the installed ObjectScale package version. Common methods include: checking the installation directory, querying the ObjectScale service, or reviewing installation manifests.Affected if The installed version is below 4.0.0.1 (note: fixed release is 4.0.0.0).
-
Review log file access controlsCheck file permissions on Dell ECS and ObjectScale log directories. Identify who has read access to log files and verify that only authorized administrators have access.Affected if Log files are readable by low-privileged local users.
-
Inspect logs for sensitive dataExamine ECS and ObjectScale log files for patterns matching credentials, tokens, passwords, API keys, or other secrets. Search for common patterns like 'password=', 'token=', 'secret=', or base64-encoded strings that may indicate exposed sensitive data.Affected if Credentials, tokens, or other confidential data are present in readable log files.
You are affected if you are running Dell Elastic Cloud Storage below version 3.8.1.5 or Dell ObjectScale below version 4.0.0.1 and log files contain sensitive information readable by low-privileged users.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped3.8.1.54.0.0.1
Update Dell ECS to version 3.8.1.5 or later, and ObjectScale to version 4.0.0.0 or later to remediate this vulnerability.
Elastic Cloud Storage to 3.8.1.5 or later; ObjectScale to 4.0.0.1 or later
- Identify the current version of Dell Elastic Cloud Storage (ECS) or ObjectScale installed in the environment
- For ECS: Plan upgrade to version 3.8.1.5 or later
- For ObjectScale: Plan upgrade to version 4.0.0.1 or later
- Review Dell upgrade documentation and release notes for the target version
- Schedule a maintenance window to perform the upgrade
- Execute the upgrade following Dell's documented upgrade procedures
- Verify the upgrade was successful and the product version is now at or above the fixed release
- Confirm that sensitive information is no longer being written to log files
