@mjay this legit? cannot find second sources or dell communication - seems confusing that'd be the first release source (especially as it does not link to anything)

found the CVE, seems legit
https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2018-11053/ CVE-2018-11053 : Dell EMC iDRAC Service Module for all supported Linux and XenServer versions v3.0.1, v3.0.2, v3.1.0, v3.2.0, when started, changes the default file permission of the hosts file of the host operating system (/etc/hosts) to world writable. A malicious low privileged operating system user or process could modify the host file and potentially redirect traffic from the intended destination to sites hosting malicious or unwanted content.

@Rotonen I don´t know about the old dell servers. I use HP currently, they have a dedicated ethernet port for their ILO. Don´t connect it and you are not vulnerable :wink:

I also run them all in a private network behind NAT

Should be safe with the old dell servers, too.
