Elevated risk73th percentile - higher than 73% of all known CVEs
Summary
There are buffer overflow vulnerabilities in multiple underlying services that could lead to unauthenticated remote code execution. By sending specially crafted packets to the PAPI UDP port (Aruba's access point management protocol), it is possible to gain access to the operating system with privileged user rights.
Risk Assessment
Exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code on the operating system, posing a serious security threat to the organization.
Recommendation
It is recommended to immediately update the software and monitor network traffic for potential attack attempts.

- CVE-2023-35981Critical
Multiple underlying services contain buffer overflow vulnerabilities that could lead to unauthenticated remote code execution by sending specially crafted packets to the PAPI UDP port (Aruba's access point management protocol). Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities allows arbitrary code execution as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.
Original NVD description (English source)
There are buffer overflow vulnerabilities in multiple underlying services that could lead to unauthenticated remote code execution by sending specially crafted packets destined to the PAPI (Aruba's access point management protocol) UDP port (8211). Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities result in the ability to execute arbitrary code as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.
