DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability in the API of HPE Networking Fabric Composer could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to obtain limited system information and to change the state of certain settings of a vulnerable system. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to gain insight into internal services and workflows and to make unauthorized changes that may disrupt the normal operation of the affected service.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated remote access to the HPE Networking Fabric Composer API allows attackers to read limited internal system information and make unauthorized changes to certain configuration settings, potentially disrupting fabric management operations. The CVSS 8.6 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L) and the 'Authentication Bypass' tag confirm that no credentials are required for network-based exploitation. …
