Summary
HPE ArubaOS (AOS) 10 ranges from 10.8.0.0 through 10.8.1.1, from 10.7.0.0 through 10.7.2.6 and from 10.4.0.0 through 10.4.1.13 are affected. An authentication bypass in the web management interface lets a request skip existing authentication controls (CWE-269). An unauthenticated adjacent attacker can run arbitrary commands on the underlying host if preconditions outside their control are met.
