Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability in an API endpoint of AOS-CX could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information via a man-in-the-middle attack. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to retrieve data which could be used to further compromise the confidentiality of the affected system.
AnalysisAI
Information disclosure in HPE AOS-CX exposes sensitive API endpoint data to a remote unauthenticated attacker who can achieve a man-in-the-middle position on the network path. Intercepted data could include credentials, session tokens, or configuration material usable to further compromise the affected switch or pivot into managed network infrastructure. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to successfully position themselves as a man-in-the-middle on the network path between a legitimate API client and the AOS-CX management endpoint - this is the AC:H constraint that most limits real-world exploitability. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 5.9 (Medium) accurately reflects the real-world exploitation bar: AC:H captures the mandatory MITM network-positioning prerequisite, which substantially limits opportunistic attack. … 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 HPE security bulletin hpesbnw05134en_us (https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=hpesbnw05134en_us&docLocale=en_US) for vendor-released AOS-CX software updates; no exact fixed version number is available in the current input data, so the advisory is the definitive source for patch version confirmation. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
