CVE-2022-37908
MediumCVSS 5.8Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk15th percentile - higher than 15% of all known CVEs
Summary
An authenticated attacker can impact the integrity of the ArubaOS bootloader on 7xxx series controllers. Successful exploitation can compromise the hardware chain of trust on the impacted controller.
Risk Assessment
Compromising the hardware chain of trust may allow an attacker to persistently install malware or modify firmware, potentially leading to full controller compromise.
Recommendation
Apply available ArubaOS software updates for 7xxx series controllers. Restrict authenticated user access to the minimum necessary and monitor bootloader integrity.
Other vulnerabilities in ArubaOS
See all- CVE-2023-35978Medium
A vulnerability in ArubaOS allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to conduct a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the web-based management interface. A successful exploit could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary script code in a victim's browser in the context of the affected interface.
- CVE-2023-35977Medium
Vulnerabilities exist which allow an authenticated attacker to access sensitive information on the ArubaOS command line interface. Successful exploitation could allow access to data beyond what is authorized by the user's existing privilege level.
- CVE-2023-35976Medium
Vulnerabilities exist that allow an authenticated attacker to access sensitive information on the ArubaOS command line interface. Successful exploitation could allow access to data beyond what is authorized by the user's existing privilege level.
- CVE-2023-35975Medium
An authenticated path traversal vulnerability exists in ArubaOS. Successful exploitation allows for the deletion of arbitrary files in the underlying operating system.
- CVE-2023-35974High
Authenticated command injection vulnerabilities exist in ArubaOS. Successful exploitation allows executing arbitrary commands as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.
- CVE-2023-35973High
Authenticated command injection vulnerabilities exist in ArubaOS. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary command execution as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.
- CVE-2023-35972High
An authenticated remote command injection vulnerability exists in the ArubaOS web-based management interface. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary command execution as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.
- CVE-2023-35971High
A vulnerability in the ArubaOS web-based management interface could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to conduct a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the interface. A successful exploit could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary script code in a victim's browser in the context of the affected interface.
- CVE-2022-37912High
Authenticated command injection vulnerabilities exist in the ArubaOS command line interface. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary commands as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.
- CVE-2022-37911Low
Due to improper restrictions on XML entities, multiple vulnerabilities exist in the command line interface of ArubaOS. A successful exploit could allow an authenticated attacker to retrieve files from the local system or cause the application to consume system resources, resulting in a denial of service condition.
Original NVD description (English source)
An authenticated attacker can impact the integrity of the ArubaOS bootloader on 7xxx series controllers. Successful exploitation can compromise the hardware chain of trust on the impacted controller.
