Authenticated code execution via command injection
Published Nov 18, 2025 · Updated Feb 26, 2026
Command injection in Hewlett Packard Enterprise AOS-CX allows remote authenticated users to execute code on affected network switches. HPE has not disclosed the affected interface, command-processing locus, or how untrusted input reaches an operating-system command. Exploitation requires authenticated high-privilege access and permits arbitrary code execution on the switch.
