Severity by source
AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-delivered attack requires social engineering an authenticated admin (AC:H/UI:R); no attacker credentials needed; full C/I/A on switch via forged admin actions justifies S:C and H impacts.

2DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of AOS-CX switches exposes some sessions to a lack of Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection. This could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary input against the affected interface if the attacker can convince an authenticated user of the interface to interact with a specially crafted URL.
AnalysisAI
Cross-site request forgery exposure in HPE AOS-CX switch web management interface enables remote unauthenticated attackers to force arbitrary administrative actions against the switch by tricking an authenticated administrator into visiting a specially crafted URL. The vulnerability is partial - only "some sessions" within the management interface lack CSRF token enforcement, suggesting inconsistent protection coverage rather than a complete absence. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires two simultaneous conditions: an authenticated administrator must hold an active session in the AOS-CX web management interface, and that administrator must be convinced to visit and interact with a specially crafted attacker-controlled URL - typically delivered via phishing, watering-hole, or malicious advertisement. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 8.3 score is elevated by S:C scope change and full C:H/I:H/A:H impact, which accurately reflects the severity of arbitrary switch configuration compromise - an attacker who successfully forges requests could manipulate VLANs, disable port security, add rogue admin accounts, or disrupt network availability. … 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 AOS-CX firmware update identified in HPE Security Bulletin HPESBNW05134 at https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=hpesbnw05134en_us&docLocale=en_US - exact fixed versions are not specified in the available CPE data and must be confirmed from the advisory. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Audit all HPE AOS-CX switches in production to identify affected versions; notify network administrators and escalation teams of the CSRF risk and instruct them to avoid clicking untrusted links in emails or messages containing management interface URLs. …
