CVE-2026-44860Network attack vector

Authenticated command execution via unsanitized database parameters

Published May 12, 2026 · Updated May 12, 2026

SQL injection in HPE Aruba Networking AOS-8 and AOS-10 allows remote authenticated users to execute OS commands through management interfaces. Several underlying service components pass crafted CLI or management-protocol parameters to backend database queries without sanitization. Administrative privileges and network access to a management interface are required, and exploitation grants elevated command execution on the appliance.
