AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-accessible API requires admin credentials (PR:H); insecure file ops enabling OS command execution justifies C:H/I:H/A:H; S:U as impact stays within the Composer host boundary.

2DescriptionCVE.org
Insecure file operations in the API of HPE Networking Fabric Composer could allow an authenticated remote attacker to achieve remote code execution. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in HPE Networking Fabric Composer allows an authenticated attacker with high-privilege API access to execute arbitrary operating system commands as a privileged user on the underlying host. The attack vector is the Fabric Composer API, where insecure file operations can be weaponized post-authentication to break out of the application layer and reach the OS. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires valid high-privilege (administrative) credentials on the HPE Fabric Composer API, as confirmed by the CVSS PR:H metric. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) accurately captures the dual nature of this vulnerability: severe post-exploitation impact offset by a meaningful authentication barrier. … 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 | Apply the patch referenced in the HPE security bulletin at https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=hpesbnw05133en_us&docLocale=en_US - no specific fix version is determinable from the available input data, so the advisory must be consulted directly to identify the target upgrade version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: audit all accounts with high-privilege API access to Fabric Composer and enforce multi-factor authentication on those accounts. …
