Summary

A buffer overflow vulnerability in the PAPI protocol of HPE Networking AOS-10 could allow an unauthenticated adjacent attacker to access sensitive information. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to retrieve information which could be used to potentially gain further access to network services supported by AOS-10, and to interrupt the normal operation of the affected service.

Risk Assessment

Information leakage may help an attacker gain further access to network services. At the same time, disruption of the affected service may occur.

Recommendation

Apply the AOS-10 fix and restrict access to the PAPI protocol from adjacent networks while monitoring for unusual traffic on service ports.
