Unauthenticated command execution during product migration
Published Feb 25, 2026 · Updated Feb 25, 2026
Command injection in VMware Aria Operations allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands during support-assisted product migration. Broadcom has not disclosed the affected migration endpoint, parameter, or input-handling operation behind the injection. The interface is reachable without authentication only while support-assisted migration is in progress; successful exploitation provides command execution on the operations appliance.
