CVE-2022-37922Network attack vector

Root command execution via CLI command injection

Published Nov 30, 2022 · Updated Apr 24, 2025

Command injection in Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Software allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands as root through its CLI. The vendor identifies the command-line interface as the vulnerable locus but has not disclosed the affected handler or how input reaches the host command executor. Affected ranges are ECOS 8.3.1.0 through 8.3.7.1, 9.0.0.0 through 9.0.7.0, 9.1.0.0 through 9.1.3.0, and 9.2.0.0 through 9.2.1.0; a highly privileged network session is required, and exploitation completely compromises the appliance.
