CVE-2025-37122Network attack vector

Account takeover via management-interface reflected XSS

Published Sep 17, 2025 · Updated Sep 17, 2025

Reflected XSS in HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript in a victim's browser. HPE identifies the web-based management interface as the affected locus but does not disclose the handler or input that reflects untrusted data into a response. Exploitation is unauthenticated but requires a victim to open attacker-controlled content, enabling code execution in the interface's browser context and account takeover.
