Dell EMC iDRAC Service Module 4.2.0.0 User’s Guide

The secure loading of libraries in iSM prevent the attacks such as DLL hijacking, DLL preloading, and binary planting. To secure iSM from such attacks, this feature will not:

• load dynamic libraries from any arbitrary path.
• load any unsigned library.

This feature will do path verification and Authenticode signature check for DLLs and shared objects. And failure event is triggered in case of DLL and shared objects authentication failure. If the authentication validation do not succeed, the respective library is not loaded and is audited in the operating system log file.
