Dell Secure Connect Gateway Virtual Edition: critical multi-vulnerability update to 5.36.00.16

Published 10 Sep 2026 · Severity: critical

Dell published DSA-2026-386 on 31 August 2026 for Secure Connect Gateway Virtual Edition. Versions before 5.36.00.16 are affected by a large set of third-party and proprietary-code vulnerabilities. Dell rates the advisory Critical and lists proprietary flaws involving missing authentication, command injection, out-of-bounds writes, hard-coded credentials and related weaknesses. The highest-scored proprietary issues in the advisory are CVSS 8.4 and require local access to the appliance; Dell does not state that any listed flaw is being actively exploited. There is no workaround. Upgrade to 5.36.00.16 or later and verify the running version.
