Summary
HPE ArubaOS (AOS-8) from 8.13.0.0 through 8.13.3.0 and from 8.10.0.0 through 8.10.0.23 is affected. A flaw in the command line interface enables server-side request forgery (CWE-918). An authenticated remote attacker with high privileges can make the server send crafted requests, and successful exploitation can execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system.
