CVE-2022-23668Network attack vector

Authenticated information disclosure via server-side requests

Published May 16, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

SSRF in HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager allows remote authenticated users to disclose internal host information. The web management interface fetches an attacker-chosen server-side resource, but HPE has not disclosed the affected endpoint or faulty URL validation. Administrative interface access is required; affected branches are 6.10.4 and earlier, 6.9.9 and earlier, 6.8.9-HF2 and earlier, and 6.7.x, and the reported consequence is information disclosure only.
