Administrative-to-root privilege escalation
Published Sep 5, 2023 · Updated Sep 30, 2024
Privilege escalation in Aruba AirWave before 7.7.14.2 and 8.x before 8.0.7 allows remote authenticated users to gain root access. Aruba has not published the affected function or the operation that enables the privilege boundary to be crossed. Administrative access to AirWave is required, and successful exploitation grants control of the underlying operating system as root.
