CVE-2022-37914Network attack vector

Unauthenticated administrative takeover via authentication bypass

Published Oct 28, 2022 · Updated May 7, 2025

Authentication bypass in affected Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Orchestrator releases allows remote attackers to gain administrator access. The web-based management interface accepts an unauthenticated request as authorized, but HPE has not disclosed the affected endpoint or validation error. No credentials or user interaction are required, and successful exploitation grants administrative control of the Orchestrator.
