Description
The command line interface in Overland Storage Snap Server 410 with GuardianOS 5.1.041 runs the "less" utility with a higher-privileged uid than the CLI user and without sufficient restriction on shell escapes, which allows local users to gain privileges using the "!" character within less to access a privileged shell.
