Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
An arbitrary file write vulnerability in the API of HPE Networking Fabric Composer could allow an authenticated low privilege operator user to escalate privileges. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may enable the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system, leading to complete compromise of the affected system.
AnalysisAI
Arbitrary file write via the HPE Networking Fabric Composer API allows an authenticated low-privilege operator to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system, resulting in complete system compromise. The CVSS 3.1 score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N) reflects network-exploitable, low-complexity exploitation requiring only a valid operator account. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid low-privilege operator account on HPE Networking Fabric Composer - the PR:L CVSS metric confirms authentication is mandatory. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 8.8 score and AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N vector indicate straightforward network exploitation by any account with operator privileges - no elevated permissions, no user interaction, and no complex attack conditions required. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Consult the HPE security bulletin at https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=hpesbnw05133en_us&docLocale=en_US for the specific patched version; no exact fix version is present in the NVD entry or CPE data, so the advisory is the authoritative source. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: inventory all Fabric Composer deployments and operator accounts; revoke operator access for non-essential users; enable audit logging for API file operations. …
