Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 15, 2026
Low-privilege authenticated attackers can escalate to root on HPE Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN Gateways by abusing an API endpoint, gaining the ability to run arbitrary operating-system commands. The flaw carries a CVSS base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N), meaning the attacker needs only valid low-privileged credentials and network reachability to the management API — no user interaction is required. Affected branches span EdgeConnect SD-WAN Gateways 9.4.x through 9.7.0.0; no public exploit code has been identified and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV at time of analysis.
