# Dell Alienware Command Center: unsigned updates let nearby attackers run code

Dell Alienware Command Center, a utility for Alienware laptops and desktops, does not properly verify cryptographic signatures on some content. An unauthenticated attacker on the same local network can potentially run arbitrary code and gain elevated privileges.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Open Alienware Command Center and check its version under the About section; `unknown` if the sources do not say where to find it.
- Confirm whether the installed version is below `6.14.54.0`.

## Fix

- Dell Alienware Command Center: `6.14.54.0` or later

## Timeline

- 2026-11-02T20:35:38+00:00 nvd https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-91898

## From the sources

Dell Alienware Command Center (AWCC), versions prior to 6.14.54.0, contain an Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with adjacent network access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Arbitrary Code Execution and Elevation of Privilege.
