Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A local privilege-escalation vulnerability has been discovered in HPE Networking Fabric Composer. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow a local attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution with root privileges, leading to a complete compromise of the affected host.
AnalysisAI
Local privilege escalation in HPE Networking Fabric Composer allows an attacker holding a low-privileged local account to execute arbitrary code with root privileges, achieving complete host compromise. The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L) confirms exploitation is confined to the local system and requires high attack complexity - consistent with a race condition or SUID-binary class of flaw. …
